[QUOTE="FedEx2000, post: 735473, member: 13621"] Exactly the point that I was trying to make. One can't rely on pension alone....maybe i should have left it at that. MrFedEx--I never claimed that my pension was some ungodly number, just that it is hardly a pittance, and yes I am in a larger market. No one at FedEx has ever asked nor forced me to be a "shill" or "liar" for the company. I do my job as I see fit, within policy, and have never had an SFA score lower than a 94. So as far as the claims about the fake SFA numbers, I don't believe it. Unless a workgroup is just out to get their manager for whatever reason, which is not even close to the intent of the SFA, what reason would it be lower for? We avoided lay-offs while most other companies didn't. Sure we had a pay freeze, but at least we still get a check each week...and it wasn't a pay cut unless you want to extrapolate into all the "what-ifs" of having gotten a raise. You say you get a lot of information from a good friend of yours that is a manager, but yet you dog management most every chance you get.....although i think in the past you specified that it is more directed at upper management. FedEx does not have a "hit-list" for pro-union employees as has been claimed on here many times either. It just doesn't exist....maybe at your station they use it as a fear tactic, but it is definitely not practiced company wide. Managers are replaceable, b/c we promote (usually) good employees from within, so there are many to choose from. Unfortunately, many couriers who think they could do 10 times better than their current manager fail b/c they don't realize what it really takes. Others do very well. Being a great courier does not mean you will be even a marginally good manager. [/QUOTE]
