I think the point being made is that they want to be on the clock first if someone at work wants their attention.Glad we don't work together.

Correct, if it has to do with work, I'll talk on the clock. You want to tell me about your kids or your fishing, if its interesting I'll chat... otherwise I get paid to work.
I don't understand some of the people I work with they'll come in 30 minutes early(off the clock) clean the truck, pretrip, sit with managers talk about routes etc.. this is stuff you should be getting paid for! The plumber doesn't come to your house and give you a free hour of labor, they charge by the hour, and YOU PAY! We are no different. Stop giving away money!

This is also a huge liability issue too if someone were to get hurt while performing work tasks off the clock. Labor laws are almost always posted by the time clock or some other high-traffic high-visibility area; they make it explicitly clear that employees are to be paid for all hours worked. It may be in management's best interest to claim ignorance that someone is working off the clock, but if proof of it occuring got dumped in their lap than people can get written up for it.^ x2
If anyone at Fedex comes in to work early and DOES anything work related off the clock they are a fool! I get a kick out of these clowns that come in and sit with the manager and have a coffee with them to talk about their previous day and the inbound volume for the day.?

Haha... I would hope they would at least say "hello" while continuing to make their way to the clock.No duh.
I don't expect anyone to do any work off the clock.
But, if I say "Hey Fredly00, how was your time off"? Off the clock and Fredly ignores me, he makes my "list".
So you admit Ground violates DOT laws. Got it.This thread seems to imply express employees violate DOT laws by working off the clock. I thought that only happens at Ground?
I don't acknowledge ANYONE(at work) until I'm on the clock.
HR is usually at my station only if a head is about to roll or some new and incredibly stupid plan is about to be rolled-out...like our new Healthcare Plan.
I dunno,
I work at a very small sta. and I've seen very large stas. (express) and I'm sure there's probably a whole lotta "drama". which, I don't go for.
At my sta. we all get along pretty good.
