What's Your DEX01 Count Going To Be Today?

[Cactus]

Maybe, but FedEx Ground is a subsidized workforce...just like WalMart. Don't you see anything wrong with a company that foists it's costs for benefits off onto the general public? If one of bbsam's employees or their kids get sick, where do they go for health care? The ER. If they don't make enough money to make ends meet, they apply for some form of Public Assistance. Who pays for that? I love how you tacitly support Ground while they simultaneously undermine your career and your company because Fred S gets cheap, taxpayer-subsidized labor to work his scam. You don't care because you will be retired soon and it won't be your problem. If you were 25, you'd probably feel quite differently.

Yesiree! If Upstate wants to retire in 7 years, that'll probably be too late unless the Ground model is proven to be fraudulant. Apparently he doesn't mind the taxpayer having to suckup the costs that Ground leaves behind.

As long as I get mine I don't really give a *****.

Exactly, and very telling.

Man you sound like Fred. No wonder why your cronies "love" you so much.

Do my "cronies" pay my bills?

...demand for unskilled labor...

This is one of the most unique terminologies at FedEx that absolutely, positively has me scratching my head whenever I hear it. The only unskilled position I have had with the company thusfar is management.

I can see that my comments above for you once again sailed right over your head.

It isn't exactly an employee-friendly setup, and the drivers are employees. As a FredFan you must worship the ground he walks upon. He's a wonderful guy.

I had a feeling you would say something like that. Different Fred (Norris).

Enlighten me. Who is Fred Norris?

 

[vantexan]

Enlighten me. Who is Fred Norris?

Know how Google gives you choices as you start to type in a search? Got to "Fred N" and he was the third choice to pop up.

 

[Operational needs]

Enlighten me. Who is Fred Norris? Probably from the Howard Stern Show.

Used to listen to Stern. Just got Sirius Radio for Christmas, so I guess I'll get up to date again.

I got rid of Sirius to pay for my added health insurance premiums!

I got rid of XM because all I ever listened to was NPR XM. Kind of ridiculous. And then I found this free little app for my phone called Tunein Radio. Awesome!

You used to listen, and you don't know Fred? He's a comic genius.

Long time ago.

Thanks Sam, going to try this app out. Can't stand Slacker, it's just a stupid ad magnet that jacks everything up and Iheartradio is so-so.
