[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 740525, member: 12508"] Right. I guess the truth hurts. Perhaps the [I]hubs[/I] have cameras, but the local ramps have people and no fancy monitoring systems. That's what I was referring to, and that's where your pkg is most likely to get damaged. Ever been to a local ramp where they do minisort? Probably not. To my knowledge, taking pictures of a FedEx sort in progress is forbidden because they don't want photographic evidence of unsafe working conditions or pkg abuse. In a showcase hub, where much of the handling is automated, maybe the policy is different. As far as trying to improve the company, that's management's job, because you've made it crystal clear to us dumb hourlies that our input doesn't matter. Judging from the results, you've done a wonderful job. Keep it up and we'll be completely in the toilet instead of swirling around in the vortex. Letting customers know how the place really runs is just being honest. In many instances, FedEx applies the same healthy disrespect it has for employees to customers as well. As you "improve" the company, it becomes more and more like Ground every single day. Need I say more? When it hits bottom, let me know. In many ways, Fedex is analogous to an 80's era GM car, where management did everything they could to de-content the vehicles and make them as cheaply as possible with the lowest quality materials that the buying public would tolerate. Turned out well,didn't it? FedEx Express is making the same sort of mistakes. Soon, we'll see if the current quality of our product measures-up to the competition. It's increasingly clear that it does not. Maybe you can get a job as a manager at BK or KFC when it all goes boom. [/QUOTE]
