[QUOTE="FedexExEmployee, post: 294178, member: 10671"] Well, first let me quote Fred S from his Dec. 3rd interview with Chris Wallace. He said : [B]SMITH:[/B][I] Well, the "purple promise" is very simple. It simply says I will make every FedEx experience outstanding.[/I] [I]We're trying to get all of those 280,000 team members to focus on the customer, to do their part of our daily job exactly the way the customer would like to have it done.[/I] [I]And on the other side of the coin, we spend an enormous amount of time trying to look after our folks. We are routinely noted as being a wonderful place to work, and our philosophy of putting our people first is integral to meeting those customer expectations.[/I] Now, here is the TRUTH. On a whole, from what I have experienced while workers along side others, most Fedex employees were already making every Fedex experience outstanding. Going the extra mile seemed to be natural for most fellow Fedex employees I've worked with. What the Purple Promise really means is Freddy wants it's employees to try even harder, because it's never enough. This goes hand in hand with the monthly frontline videos in which some prick who was never even a courier tells you "I know we can do better." That was the main message month after month to it's employees. What they'd really like to say on that frontline video each month is: "You're still not doing enough you dumba** package donkey." As for the company looking after it's folks as he put it, that's a real laugh. The revised pension plan is more proof that Fedex does NOT care about it's employees livelyhood. So the whole Purple Promise thing is nothing more than a tool which is used to squeeze more life out of it's hard-working employees. It's not a people-first philosophy as it proposes. It's a big fat Purple LIE. [/QUOTE]
