[QUOTE="FedEx All the Way!, post: 507206, member: 18070"] Thank you, it was taken to heart. I'm a mother of 2 teenagers (boys) and wife of a FedEx worker. You see, (although some don't look at it this way) my husband started with FedEx from the ground up. He started off 15 years ago as a temp. He diligently worked days, nights and weekends to make it in upper management. He was not just handed that position, he worked very hard for it. Don't take it wrong - I believe that there are many at FedEx that have and still work hard. I also know in my husband's department there are many who think or should I say have the attitude that they can't be touched. They have been with FedEx for a while and think nothing would ever happen to them. Well let me tell you - they haven't seen the real world out there. In my mind, what Fred is doing is trying to save the company - remember he employs approximately 290,000 people all over, some of us are thankful for that. Does anyone even think about how much it takes to run a company like FedEx. As far as believing in unions - they were once great - but it is time for the Teamsters to get out - they are only out for themselves. Take a look at the auto industry - what has a union done for them? To me it is all greed and more greed. I think that we should be grateful with what we have and wait for the economy to rebound. Although some may think I'm a dumb broad - I'm just a mother and wife who is content with my husband still being employed with FedEx in these tough times. I wish you a good day! Later, PS. My condolences to the families of the pilots, may god be with you in these hard times. [/QUOTE]
