No pay for the snow day

[FrigidFTSup]

And we been fairly busy this year. They are probably trying to bounce back from that last quarter.

That's exactly it. They aren't spending money on anything they don't have to. Classes are being cancelled and they aren't approving things that they normally would.

All about the stock price. Heck they have been even cutting air drivers here.

 

[rod]

Got to pay for that 29% increase the CEO is enjoying.

 

[Johney]

Focus on cutting costs this quarter is HUGE.

I'm sure that Hialeah hub fire will help that right along.

 

[upschuck]

Another example of the short sightedness of management right there.

 

[Wally]

This whole thing is incredibly stupid. What does the company care if I use my sick days? If I don't use the time, they will still be cutting me a check.

 

[over9five]

Today their was a sign up list posted for this. If you wanted to use your days, you put your name down, and what kind of day (sick, optional, vacation) you wanted to use.
WTH is wrong with the OPs management team?

 

[Brownslave688]

Focus on cutting costs this quarter is HUGE. Easy day to not have to pay out wages to anyone. Take the hit on the vacation days later in the year

Every PCM this month has been about saving the Company money. And then the CEO gets a 21% raise. SMH

Yeah they only made a billion.

They shouldn't have played my mix tape during the sort

I mean that money will eventually have to be spent.


Sacrifice q2 or q3 to make q1 look good?

The stock price took a hit. Enough said

Yeah and I get a 30% reduction in my bonus as a thank you for the 14 hour days I pulled during peak. But you know, because residential deliveries were up it's my fault.

Q1 is always big cost cutting, then April to kick off Q2. It's the same every year, this year is just the worst I've seen since being in management

The year before he got a 35% raise. Lol


So he's doubled his compensation in 2 years as CEO. yeah that makes sense.


My center manager "no matter how overpaid our CEO is we need to find a way to cut costs"
LMAO

 

[Brownslave688]

But volume has stayed pretty high q1 this year. At least stop counts have.

I'm not obviously not privy to his contract, but I'd be willing to bet a lot of his extra compensation is in growth areas. So international and supply chain are areas they are putting extra focus on, and they performed the well. Had small package performed well I'm sure it would have been even bigger

Doesn't matter, they use last quarter as the measure of current performance. Emphasis on nailing everything is sky high right now. Our preload number was off yesterday by .03% and I had to sit on a conference call today and explain why we aren't performing and how we plan on fixing it.

Is this also why we can't fix any package cars? Only red tag them?

Not sure how automotive works, but I'd bet yes. We had a package car with a new engine put in second to last week of last month, but they wouldn't let us put it in service again until March so the cost was allocated to this month.
