[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 4019250, member: 12508"] The only time I ever napped as an RTD was when planes were extremely late and I was at an away station waiting on one. I used to help out driving tugs, loading cans etc. and would never just sit in the tractor unless it was totally dead and everyone was just waiting on the plane. One more thing I think everyone needs to understand about FedEx. The company is structured to make you disposable, and I saw it over and over again throughout my career. Unless you have a race card to play or some hidden blackmail material over management, it's really you the individual vs. a mega-corporation. Since FedEx is non-union except for the pilots, there are no Weingarten Rights or basic worker protections. Even though they aren't supposed to do it, Legal and HR work hand-in-hand to ensure the employee loses, whether it be a court case or a GFT. I had to testify in a few cases where employees sued, and the winners always proved that Legal and HR were colluding to make FedEx the winner. In one memorable case, which I shall not name, Memphis flew out several of the top dogs to add some punch to their argument, which they lost. The employee received a high 6-figure settlement for discrimination and wrongful termination in spite of all the big names. FedEx is a predatory employer, and the sooner you realize it, the better off you will be. Always document everything, including pictures if possible. If you can record conversations on your phone, do it, even though they are (mostly) not admissible in court because it will help you remember what was said to you verbatim. Judges like facts, not suppositions and hearsay. [/QUOTE]
