[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1420046, member: 24302"] Over the years in many stations the only couriers I've seen fired were those who violated company policies concerning serious offenses. If you do your job, if you don't get in accidents, don't steal, don't make sexual advances, don't make racist remarks, don't get 3 warning letters in a 12 month period, don't strike a coworker or customer, don't swear at a customer, etc you can stay as long as you like. The emphasis on this forum is on how bad management is but often the biggest source of aggravation at many stations will be some of your coworkers. FedEx stations are hotbeds of gossip and cliquish. Getting through many years without punching an a**hole out is an accomplishment. Major reason FedEx has a no tolerance policy for workplace violence is fights would be a regular feature without it. The flip side of that is many know people won't retaliate so they hide behind the company's skirts saying all manner of vicious remarks and then deny it if management is brought in. Stations are fishbowls with a limited amount of time daily for people to interact before going onroad so the stress manifests itself a bit more intensely than what you might experience at other companies. Love being a domiciled courier, keeps all the drama away. [/QUOTE]
