Hazard pay petition

[59 Dano]

I've achieved far more as a self-employed RE broker than I ever could at FedEx, without compromising my integrity in the process. Being a professional liar was never appealing, and that's pretty much what you are as an Express manager. Selling the corporate lie, and then continually being Fred's orifice never sat well with me at all.

Here we go again, "I could have done it but my integrity, blah blah blah."

Glad "management" is a perfect fit for somebody like you, whatever you call yourself. "Underachievement" is attaining your goals at the expense of others.

Any type of leadership position, if you want to be successful at it, requires you to manage and lead people with vastly different personalities and motivations to work together to achieve a common goal. Aside from problem-solving, it is primarily keeping everyone on track and there's lots to be said for encouraging and accommodating employee development.

It requires putting pieces of a puzzle together, teamwork, coordination, patience, diligence, teamwork, consistency, and so on. And in the end, it's all on you if you or your employees don't get it done and you are the one held accountable.

It's understandable why you wanted no part of it.

Yeah sure. UPS should take note of Fedex ISP for no commitment ground deliveries. Overpaid workers lol.

Wait'll bacha sees this...

 

[59 Dano]

And you're proud of the fact FedEx is raking in the profit while the people doing the actual work are barely scrapping by?

Ground is better than their other employment options, they are paid a fair market wage.

 

[I am FedEx]

Agreed Ground is paid a fair wage. UPS drivers have some self entitlement. Your vastly over-paid and it’s only a matter of time until Ground swallows your market share.

Wow. Employers love dummies like you. "I deserve to make $15 less than what my contemporaries make."

So nice to see people so willing to participate in the race to the bottom.

 

[It will be fine]

It’s a step up for the people that take the job. Why do you hate low wage workers?

 

[burrheadd]

A lot of undercover millionaires hang around BrownCafe. Lol.

it’s mostly preloaders that don’t have to work.
they just do it for ’s and grins

 

[burrheadd]

Did you consider the difference in work load between the two? The pay reflects that. And we are represented by the strongest labor union in the world. Maybe the universe...

Please cite where I said I hated low wage earners.

Everyone should be striving for more. When you see others, in the same industry making significantly more money, they should be asking why they're making much less, not saying nah, I'm good.

is it fair or low?

The people that take jobs driving for Ground are getting more money than they were at whatever their previous job was. For them it’s a step up. Some people apparently don’t think they should have that opportunity.

Lmao!! Really? You better hope UPS stays in business. You will be making minimum wage if it wasn’t for them. Are you a owner? Wow! I promise Fred S loves guys like you!

McDonald’s? Wendy’s? I guess so

 

[It will be fine]

McDonald’s? Wendy’s? I guess so

As opposed to the distinguished position of package handler held by UPS drivers? Get over yourself.

 

[Brownsocks]

I thought McDonalds paid better than ground. Those boys and girls need to organize.

 

[Indecisi0n]

I just want a beard.

just curious what does an average ground driver make?

if it’s none of businesses that’s ok to

It's like arguing with a pet. Bye.

Varies wildly by location and contractor. Anywhere from $600-1200/week. Hours vary quite a bit as well. There are thousands of contractors so you can’t really nail down an exact answer. Compensation varies a lot within terminals.

If you are a driver at UPS you might want to keep that sentiment to yourself on this thread considering the pay difference between UPS and FedEx.

As a matter of fact I am a driver. I didn’t notice what forum this was posted in but we (UPS) have the same petition with over 100,000 signatures going around for hazard pay. My sentiment stands.
