[QUOTE="olcc, post: 580443"] Hi Artee, thanks for trolling on in. We were all getting tired of FedEx 4 Life, so it's refreshing to have another irreverent voice here to distract us from a legitimate discussion. Keep posting five times is a row on the same thread and you'll have that post count up in no time. And to clarify, no one is expecting free handouts from FedEx. We're only expecting them follow through on promises that were made. Gutting the pension, lengthening top-out times, suspending raises, increasing health care costs, and cutting the 401k match are all broken promises. FedEx is an extremely profitable company. The recent "loss" was nothing more than a write-down for overpaying on the Kinko's brand years ago. It's a loss on paper. The greatest recession since WWII and this company still made money. They can afford to provide for their employees the same way the competition does. And if they would just do that (much like they did up until about 10 or fifteen years ago), a union wouldn't be necessary. The hourlies didn't share in any of the wealth during the boom and now we're taking all of the heat during the bust. [/QUOTE]
