[QUOTE="Sniper, post: 1200481, member: 48816"] Absolutely. There is no I in team. We all are in this together. I do have a [B]retirement route[/B] but I run my butt off just all of us, if you work [B]here.[/B] I don't leave [B]anyone[/B] behind. As a matter of fact our work group services the end our stations delivery area. I stay out and drop my outbound 2 out of 4 nights because we are all in this together. It's not even Halloween yet, much less Thanksgiving. Peak is right around the corner and we will have some snow this year at prime time. I am a veteran of FedEx and I'm proud of it. I will help anyone in the station if they need it. The hour break is killing us in the extended areas. A lot of couriers are moaning because they have to take an extra :30 minutes and they are home at 18:00. That :30 minutes in our group equates to 2.5 reduction of window. We [B]have[/B] to take a break and [B]no[/B] 01's. It is what it is. Don't like it, [B]our[/B] customers are suffering but we are [B]wad[/B]. Again we are all in this together. My wife shuttles the freight, runs her route and takes the freight back. She is working harder than I am and not topped out. I have personal knowledge of the plight of the [B]mid-range[/B] couriers. Is it fair that she works harder than I do and makes less money? I ran her route on Monday, my normal day off, had 5 lates and got an olcc Tuesday. Our station has about 60 drivers. I got [B]drafted[/B] Sat and Mon last week, twice in [B]three[/B] days, my normal days off. Is that fair? Did anyone else get it twice in three days? Veteran this...Veteran that... Whatever!! My mentality is to help anyone who needs it. No screw you here. I don't have mine yet, but am working on it. I [B]deserve[/B] 13 more years if the dice roll that way. Like it or not FedEx is a family. The pilots are flying tonight so we can drive in the morning. [/QUOTE]
