[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1143929, member: 12508"] Yes...great points. Every new hire requires training, a vehicle, uniforms etc., and most of the post-DRA hires are worthless. These are the people that do all of the things you mention, and much more. I'm stay in touch with a couple of dispatchers I came up with, and they all say the same thing about DRA and the new hires....it's a complete cluster. Overall, they are losing money when they send someone out on the road that is far below standard on their ability to deliver or pickup packages. In some cases, an experienced good courier can literally do twice what one of the new people can. Like you said, "where are the savings". Add-in the fact that a lot of couriers are slowing it down and working at "Payday Pace", and the losses compound. MT3 was talking in tongues, as usual, but that was the problem he was getting at. People ARE slowing-down, and it is costing them big money, and they have no solution except to do what they always have...threaten, discipline, and then threaten some more. It's all about saving money no matter what the crap consequences are for the FedEx employee, and people are finally figuring this out. [/QUOTE]
