[QUOTE="Sniper, post: 1200869, member: 48816"] I agree with all of your statements. I can not buy time. As you get older this will become crystal clear. I still feel like I am 19, but I ain't. You can, buy "time" adding the "age issue" :wink2:. We are in the same boat. We all work at FedEx. All I want to do is to "buy time" with my grandchildren. It is what is is........ Not an "attitude attached" statement, but [B]my [/B]reality. Attitude is everything. I am "stuck" here so I try my level best to make each and every day a good day for [B]me[/B], my customers and co-workers. I do love my job most days but it could be a tad better. I have great customers, good co-workers and better than average managers. I get to drive in a National Park every day. I get "drafted". I have to make sure the outbound makes it [B]out[/B], and stay out about 45% of the time. The hour break is killing us in the extended areas... :fishbashsmile: In your second point I agree 100%. I don't [B]have[/B] to accept what FedEx "gives me". I earn it every day just like each one of us do. I can't "go" to another company given my age. Even if I could I would lose, again .."it is what it is". I can't demand more because that ship sailed in Jan 2011. I held my nose and voted for McLame. (I know MrFedEx likes this admission). lol... President Obama won the victory and I [B]knew[/B] I was beaten. Beaten yet knowing I would at least get a [B]VOTE.[/B] It [B][I]DID NOT[/I][/B] happen. It could have, everyone expected it was a done deal. I knew it was going to be passed. Managers were going to MEM for training, other managers were ready to go back to driving. I [B]KNOW[/B] that was W. Bush's fault...lol...satire... political reality. It is what it is. So here we are all these years later and I do love my job, most days. The "courier" is the beginning and the end of the package life. It is what it is. I will see you all in the morning because I work for FedEx. [/QUOTE]
