I earned my BA degree while doing combat tours in OIF/OEF, you condescending punk. Thats Iraq and Afghanistan if you're too stupid to know. I type fast because I have a life outside of bitching about FedEx, as fun as it is. I never once insulted you, yet you have the audacity to judge me from a few misspelled words? Sad life. I spent 20+ years in the service as an engineer. I bet my pension is more than your yearly salary.
At risk of offending you (which is not my intention at all) I must ask... If you are doing so well, why even bother with a company you can't stand? Why not enjoy the excellent pension and if idle hands need work, take up a job that doesn't make you so unhappy?
Tours of duty in the service and this is what you are in civilian life? Really?

I like to stay in shape. My WADS system makes my job very stress free, but it's not for everyone. If I get fired, I don't care. I like to complain because it's cathartic sometimes. Sorry for jumping down your throat. No offense taken

If I had somewhere else I could be, I would be there. Living by the WAD lifestyle, I have no stress either, but being up to my eyelids in the fedex bs makes me sick. If I were you, I'd get a gym membership.. In a heartbeat I would do it.

Hey, you are sympatico with most of us here, and I personally find you refreshing. Fred can't contract Express out because of FAA/SIDA concerns, but he would if he could.
Correction. He can't contract out ALL of Express.

Here we go again.
Then why don't they?
I have no idea. I can legally run mu drivers 12 hours every day and not pay them a dime more for it, but I don't.

Well isn't that so nice of you? You really do have a heart . Not!
You have some good points. Although they were a little all over the place. We can put our dusty degrees on the same mantle. You seem to be overqualified for such grunt work given your obvious frustration with both sides of the company. Although I agree that a layoff of express is possible, I still cannot see the possibility of contracting Express.
But just because you don't doesn't mean you wouldn't....
Exactly.

I bet you he runs them 11:59. At 12 hours they get time and a half. Minimum wage x 2 is about 13 bucks an hour. Not a bad days pay. I'm so very grateful to have such a rewarding career. Maybe one day I can be cool enough to get rid of the V on my id card.

I hardly ever hit 12 hours, in fact I rarely hit 10. The Ground drivers here that do routinely are well compensated. Or atleast what > I < consider well compensated in comparison to my salary! I'm sure my weekly bonus for heavy volume/peak is the equivalent of what Fred S uses to blow his nose.
