Those frontline videos have been laughed at for the longest time.
More so as of the last few years.
Fedex has pushed too hard and thankfully, out of that bullying, the eyes of most employees have truly been opened to the truth.
What's still lacking from the employees is action.
So long as there is no union in place, employees are left with two options in getting pushed to the limit: Stay and take it, or find another place to work.
Seems like a losing battle if you stay.
As we all know, there is no reliable respresentation.
HR is a complete joke, at least at the station I worked.
The HR rep was buddy-buddy with management, so we know we couldn't rely on her to respresent our best interests.
Not to mention she was completely inept. It was a big, ugly joke.
All she needed was the red nose, big goofy shoes, and the red afro wig.
Getting back to the frontline videos, I always found them to be an insult to my intelligence.
How dare the makers of these videos think I was some sheep in the herd?
How dare they think I would see the videos as anything but wanna-be brainwashing?
One of the managers at my station was somewhat down-to-earth. When he came in the breakroom while I was viewing the video, I would point to it and smirk.
He'd just give a quick smirk back. He knew what I was getting at.
I still visit the station once a month or so to see my fellow ex-employees.
I got to watch one or two frontline videos with them over the last 5 or 6 months. They're just so damn comical.
