[QUOTE="fedex_rtd, post: 953479, member: 23671"] Once again I had to learn of this second hand...My manager won't come out and tell me this kind of stuff. My second shift pay is $0.35 per hour, that works out to about $720 a year that Fred just put back in his pocket. One of the posters said that people hired after 2003 did not get this pay, and while this is correct, I think Fred may have finally pissed off a group of senior drivers...The RT drivers are mostly made up of guys and gals that have been with the company for a very long time, ALL of the long haul drivers that work between 5pm and 7am are senior people hired WELL before 2003, for these drivers most of them get 3rd shift pay, and most of them work on average 45 hours per week, with 3rd shift pay being $0.50 per hour your looking at taking at least $1100 or more out of these drivers who have 15, 20, and 25 years with the company. Now what I want to know from a Teamsters point of view, since RTD'S work for AGFS and not DGO, does this put us in a different wage class for organizing? If it does Fred just pissed off the group that can really put a hurt on his operation. The one way we can fight back now is to get this out in the social media. Make a status post on your FaceBook page, let the world know that FedEx is taking this money away from you, tell your friends that maybe when they ship that package that they should think about whether or not the company they are shipping with pays their hourly employees fairly or not.
