Potential FedEx Courier,I was offered a position today.

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Don't get all excited. That's not company-wide. It's been many years since I've gotten a turkey.

What??

I think we got our last turkey in 2009...

Your reward has been downsized to a Cornish hen.

I get a Butterball,everyday!

 

[hypo hanna]

4-10's eh? What are your days off? If its set up with a rotating day off where you get a 4 day weekend every month, that's not so bad. Anyway all of those promises from mgmt could change in an instant. Before you sign on, ask them what's the definition of "operational needs".

 

[bleedinbrown58]

well maybe you should switch from soap to Land O lakes....cause they don't taste too much like butter!...lmao

 

[dezguy]

I wish we got bagels.

When we do, they're stale.

I've never gotten a turkey.

 

[Operational needs]

I've never gotten a turkey.

Aww. Poor D.

 

[MAKAVELI]

So th's where,our xmas turkeys went? Freddy stole them off of us!

No, I believe he got them from the local food bank.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

No, I believe he got them from the local food bank.

Sure they weren't, fat pigeons?

Go ahead and take the job. Just use it as experience and a resume builder. About the only less certain future than an Express courier is a job 8n the public sector.

Depends which state.
If he's in a solid blue state it would be nuts to leave.
But yes,if it's a red state then it's a tie.

Building a resume.

 

[silenze]

Fedex will do nothing for your professional resume. Its just a placeholder.

Agree.
I think his resume would be better by staying put in a state job rather than making a lateral move for a short time period.

I had done some research online and saw that insurance for a family is $400 a month? Is this true? Also does FedEx pay time and a half for overtime? Btw I am in a red state.

Yes to the insurance question.
About 380's for top option with dental and vision.
That top option still has 80/20 coverage which sucks and a maximum out of pocket for family near 10 grand.
How red?
Like Utah red or a toss up state?

yes over 8 or 40 is OT

 

[thedownhillEXPRESS]

I just did a little math.
I'm sure some smart asses will show me my errors but just in premiums alone,you would need to make 16.50 an hour at fedex to be better off than your current job with healthcare.

Probably a little more than that. You have to Include taxes.
