Attention Couriers: The End is Nigh!

[59 Dano]

because occasionally he gives us good insight into the thoughts of management and will often give another talking point. Even though, as of late, it seems more trolly and/or more anti-frontline employee. While I may not agree with his viewpoints, as long as they aren't blabbered out of the rear end (hence why OF is on my ignore list), they are welcome.

If I give you a talking point, I'll tell you it's a talking point. No reason to do the bidding of anyone else other than my own.

I'm not anti-FL employee. Some of them realize that their entire Express experience is merely the tip of an iceberg and that there's much more than meets the eye. Others think that being a frontline employee gives them deep insight into everything, even things that they don't even know exist. That's true of just about any workgroup in any company.

Some of those FL employees have prior management experience and are able to recognize systemic deficiencies without participating in them.

Justifying one’s position by complicating the process of delivering cardboard is one of them.

After all, that’s the core business. The flow chart to improving efficiency is supposed to eliminate inefficiency and redundancy, not add to them.

Or sometimes they transfer around and realize damn, they're telling new hires in every place I've been they'll top out in 7-8 years just like they told me 14 years ago. What a coincidence!

Let me know when the "alternative" to the gibberish you speak of kicks in, because what you left here is a sack of dog refuse

So you're telling us that the company is even worse than we thought? Hey, thanks!

Sounds like the insight that would come from someone whose only responsibility has been delivering cardboard.

 

[MAKAVELI]

Sounds like the insight that would come from someone whose only responsibility has been delivering cardboard.

And yet that one responsibility is the sole reason for FedEx's existence.

 

[Cactus]

Sounds like the insight that would come from someone whose only responsibility has been delivering cardboard.

And without it, your cushy position wouldn't exist.

Sounds like someone who’s super defensive about justifying his non-productive position.

Wrong. The sole reason for FedEx's existence is to make money. That one responsibility is simply a means to do so.

 

[59 Dano]

And without it, your cushy position wouldn't exist.

Never said otherwise.

What makes you think my position is cushy?

 

[MAKAVELI]

Wrong. The sole reason for FedEx's existence is to make money. That one responsibility is simply a means to do so.

Wrong. The sole " purpose " of FedEx existence is to make $. The sole reason for FedEx's existence delivering cardboard. Ttku.....

With the money they're paying me, I'd better be productive.

LOL, let the dumb semantic hair splitting commence!

What came first dip ?

You occupy it....

 

[Cactus]

Never said otherwise.

What makes you think my position is cushy?

You've said in the past that you don't like to get your hands dirty. So......

 

[XEQaF]

We're not saying that we disagree with you 59 Dano, all we're saying is that you're stupid ttku!

 

[59 Dano]

You've said in the past that you don't like to get your hands dirty. So......

Your point (intentional or not) is that anyone who doesn't get dirty has a cushy job. Might want to rethink that.
