[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 998002, member: 12508"] I agree completely, and FedEx has been masterful at making sure we have as little information as possible. Instead, we get missives like PSP and the Purple Promise, which mean [B]nothing. [/B]While Fred was sending us letters to "Live the Purple Promise" (From The Chairman) he and his band of brothers in MEM and Washington, DC, were actively plotting our demise. Can anyone say "Two-Faced"? Even though Fred is a known commodity, the faithful continue to soldier on in the false hope that he is going to do right by them. He isn't, and the evidence to back that statement up is staggering. If you add-up all of the takeways to what's going to happen in October (already happening in some locations), Smith will have effectively cut around 25% of most of your wages. That's quite a bold move, but since Freddy has bought himself the means for preventing us going union, he's going to get away with it. Count on it. No changes of heart (LOL), or last minute reprieves. It's going to happen. To let Fred know you don't like it, we need to sheet in his caviar, and the only way we are going to do it is to get the word out, get employees involved, and then actually [B]DO [/B]something to indicate our displeasure at our wages being slashed. Remember, this is a man who envisons FedEx as a clone of WalMart, where low-wage employees slave away for a pittance, and the company has all the power. Or do they? We [B]can [/B]fight back. Massive sick-outs, work slowdowns, and other tactics could basically shut Express down. Despite all the bluster and threats of OLCC's and letters, we need to stand-up against this BS and take action. If the whole station sits down on their bumpers and watches the freight go down the belt, we send a big effing message. The same if we all call in sick and cripple the operation.
