[QUOTE="FedexCares, post: 1392188, member: 50129"] Well, that is disappointing. I guess there is really nothing I can do and have to just keep putting up with the situation which I feel isn't going to get better anytime soon. The sad thing is I genuinely do enjoy the work when I'm not getting shafted, but all the extra crap you have to put up with makes you think twice about staying with the company long-term. Yeah, we really do have 50+ open positions. We were told by the senior manager recently in a "state of the station" speech that he is looking to fill 50+ positions in the station and most of those are going to be part-time couriers. We have monday-friday people that have been drafted 4 weeks in a row on saturdays, as we sometimes have 25 open routes on saturdays that arent even filled. We have quite a few couriers that work right up to 70 hour weeks every week, and if you want OT you can basically get as much as you want at this station. Every day we get messages to watch HOS violations as its that big of a problem for us even in the middle of summer when its supposed to be slower. I can't wait until peak. [/QUOTE]
