Disagree. As long as we have an underpaid, overworked opco in the FedEx "family" dragging the rest of us down, we need to call them out. It's like forcing your meth-head, alcoholic, crack-smoking brother into an intervention. These folks need to realize how badly they are getting screwed. By allowing themselves to work for nothing and zero benefits, they bring down the industry as a whole and devalue our type of work. This especially effects Express employees, since Fred now thinks we should be more like Ground, and accept less pay and benefits.
They're working harder for less money and no benefits? Does that mean they have more backbone, more gumption than Express employees? Let's focus on the ones responsible for this tragedy, and leave working class people who work hard for a living alone. They're trying to feed and house their families in a bad economy and deserve some respect. You must live in some post-apocalyptic hell hole MFE because most Ground drivers I've seen around the country look pretty normal.
