[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1416238, member: 24302"] Well I certainly didn't "WAD" in the past but am fortunate to have a route now that's about the driving, no speed needed. The towns I deliver in all have speed limits of 15-25 mph due to topography and I'm too old and broke down to do windsprints anymore. But I do remember the frustration of doing an honest job, working hard and going above and beyond while others skated and/or milked. I really believe that FedEx figures there's a tremendous amount of milking going on and thus factors that into the raises they give, which definitely doesn't reward the hard workers. I'll give you that it's foolish to work extra hard these days because there really isn't any getting ahead financially. But then again back in the good ole days I got 6.4 reviews working twice as hard as topped out couriers who got 7's so the game has always been rigged. Ultimately people work hard because it's the way they were raised, in their DNA. For them I'd say keep in mind the hard work you do for FedEx today won't get you ahead, but it will visit you 25 years from now in aches and pains. Do yourself a favor and find something rewarding.
