[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1227964, member: 12508"] CA is a labor-friendly state, and they also take discrimination very seriously. If you've ever spent time there, they are very big on labor law, the environment, and don't take crap from big companies. The courts are also more liberal. All of this is the exact opposite of Right-To-Work states, where FedEx has a free hand to do pretty much as they please. That said, I have heard some whopper lies from management about "suits in CA" being the rationale for doing away with shift premiums, our idiotic timecard policies, etc. It's a standard line of BS, kind of like the " you'd have nothing to look forward to if we topped you out now" garbage. Frankly, I'm glad there is at least one state that holds the "feet" of FedEx to the fire. The fact that FedEx always settles out of court on these deals means they are [B]guilty, [/B]despite the standard claim that "we admit no wrongdoing and will vigorously defend ourselves in court". Innocent parties who know they haven't done anything wrong DO defend themselves in court, and win....not FedEx. The best recent example is the Residential Overcharge Settlement. FedEx [B]knowingly[/B] overcharged customers for years for residential fees, and internal documents prove that upper management had been told about it and continued the practice hoping they wouldn't get caught. Well, they did, and had to pay up. FedEx is a corrupt organization, through and through. Every company probably has an unethical, dishonest element to it, but FedEx is just riddled with dishonest behavior, most of it designed to put more money in Fred's pocket. It's just the way weasel rat bastards do business. [/QUOTE]
