[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 4427247, member: 12508"] Like your avatar (Top Cat). Sounds like you generally "get it". I totally agree with the "performer" analysis. If you're good and have great numbers, they leave you alone. Throughout my career, I made it to work every day, on-time, and always did an excellent job for them, even though I disagreed with a lot of their BS. When I was a target, there wasn't much they could do because I did my job very well. A lot of employees create their own problems by being lazy or having an entitled attitude. If you just do your job, a lot of their garbage falls away. That said, I wish that folks like you, who were good employees and deserved better, had been willing to take a stand against FedEx. If you've been there almost 30 years, you recall the years without raises and all of the takeaways. If everyone had just walked off the sort a few days or had a massive Purple Flu outbreak, Fred would have had to be a bit more fair. Employee passivity allowed Smith to kill the Traditional, not pay competitive wages, and to have ridiculous top-out schemes over the years. All of the takeaways were way to easy for Fred because most employees were like you, good workers who wouldn't take a stand against him. [/QUOTE]
