[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 785382, member: 12508"] Glad to see you're checking your "spy" systems. Mock me all you want, but once again, you justify lack of opportunity for employees based on Fred's need's...not theirs. As far as you're concerned, everyone (except you, of course) could be PT because it fits with operational needs. Most companies with an actual career track realize that they must provide avenues for either advancement or FT work in order to retain good employees. Ever hear of a job share, or combined Heavyweight/RTD functions? I've watched a bunch of my former RTD workmates get pared-down to 36 hours or so per week or be forced to go back to courier work just to get enough hours to survive financially. There is no consideration for the employee...only the company. If Fred could actually get away with it, he'd have an all PT workforce in order to have an even cheaper operating structure. He's been moving that way for awhile now, probably in advance of the shift of freight over to Ground. I'm sure if they determine that your job function can go PT, that you'll be OK with 25-30 hours per week and no realistic chance of ever returning to FT status. Why don't you send Fred a letter and volunteer to cut [I]your [/I]hours for the good of the company? At most organizations, this is a give and take process that recognizes both the needs of the company [I]and [/I]the needs of the employee. At FedEx, the process only goes one way..TAKE. Bend-over boys like yourself have no problem with this kind of conduct. Those of us born with an actual spine don't like it very much. [/QUOTE]
