[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 866764, member: 24302"] Added it up, over the years I've worked for or with 61 mgrs and sr.mgrs. I'm very aware of just how much they care about us. With the exception of a handful, most of them only cared what I could do to help their career. I don't expect Fred to be any different. I just remember a few years ago when he was fighting the union he made the statement to some group that he would take care of the employees that stuck with the company all these years. At the time I wondered if he would come up with more money like in the late 90's to placate the senior employees. And I wondered if we in mid-range would be left out again. At any rate he was assuring them that FedEx employees would be rewarded when apparently he had no such intent. It's frustrating to hear talk radio hosts like Limbaugh and Hannity take his side when they believe the company is doing well by us and there's no need for a union. And of course they're anti-union anyways but there are unions that have grown fat and corrupt and then there are situations like ours where a union is needed. Unfair to lump us all together but that's the way it is.You are saying we'll reorganize by next year's election most likely. Any concrete evidence of this? Not questioning your veracity, just want to know if you have solid proof. If I knew they'd try to structure rts to give FTer's a full 40 hrs I'd deal with it.
