[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 897361, member: 12508"] Extended routes are a problem because your stops can be so variable, and the temptation to speed over the "gaps" between stops can be strong, especially when your job is being implicitly threatened, as in the case of the 25 year employee you described. FedEx still tries it's best to get rid of senior employees so they can be replaced with new, lower-cost alternatives. Your advice sounds like the correct way to approach the problem. You might mention the ongoing age discrimination suit (FedEx v. Holowecki) to her and have her check it out online. This is the case that made it to the Supreme Court, where it was allowed to proceed after a procedural error on the part of the complaintants. If we would all just stop playing their game, our situation would improve. Don't speed, and just do everything by the book. [/QUOTE]
