[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 736360, member: 12508"] More lies. Who tops-out in 10 years? I work with numerous 10-15 year employees who aren't even close to top-of-range. I guess you worked in a unique station, or you're just lying. There are plenty of couriers with only 3 years of service that out-perform more senior people every single day. The extended top-out times are a money-saving scam, just like the market level garbage. The 7.0 deal is crap too. If you're a 7.0 employee, management is going to beat the bushes to find something they can hang on you to make sure that 7.0 goes-down to a 6.9. You're right that I'd be happier elsewhere. Who created that scenario? I used to love my job and FedEx, but along the way a lot of things changed. Did I change them? NO. FedEx did. All of the takeaways, BPP, extended top-outs, and a long list of other changes created an entirely different company and a lousy work environment. A lot of us chose FedEx as a career because the company once treated us right and then were stuck when the game plan changed mid-stream. Thanks, Fred.
