[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1017267, member: 24302"] Then why do you care? And how is having a handler in the family qualify you as an expert on Express matters? Why are you here at this forum if you don't actually work at FedEx? Yes, times change. But how many companies do you know of that develop a parallel company that they use to undermine the original company's employees' future? Taking away extremely important benefits, slowing pay progression to a trickle, but expecting ever better productivity numbers? How many companies do you know of who get legislation enacted by Congress that makes it extremely difficult for their employees to unionize, while heading off other legislation that would make unionizing easier by throwing around millions? Name those companies that have done similar! GFT...GO FRACK THYSELF!! Complaining on a message board must be bothering someone because you folk keep showing up trying to shut it down. FedEx has forced me to work side by side with others doing the same job with no hope of ever making what they do. They've basically told me I don't deserve as much, and if I don't like it I can leave, knowing good and well they have me and others like me over an economic barrel. If this company had any decency they'd offer all hourly employees with 20+ years of total service a decent buyout option, and make that available to every hourly in the future that reaches 20 years.
