Would this be the same Fred S who always says "FedEx is not anti-union in any way"? Just curious, because why would someone who isn't anti-union refuse to recognize one if it were formed? Looks like Uncle Fred is speaking from both sides of his crooked mouth again. What a liar.
I keep up with the Right Wing blogs and they're all for Fred because "we don't need unions to protect lazy employees any longer". I'm guessing most of these tools would last about a day as an Express courier, and perhaps a week working for FedEx Ground. You see, Fred makes sure we work our butts off, or he gets rid of us. It's called "not making your numbers". Fred is also very good at eliminating workers injured on the job. A few years back FedEx decided the injury rate was too high, and implemented a simple solution. Blame the employee. If a box falls out of the airplane and hits you on the head you "should have anticipated the hazard". Sorry, but it's your fault and you'll get a lower review score plus some remedial training for being so stupid as to have a box fall on you. It happens all the time, and unless you have an attorney who will work for free, you're screwed, because FedEx has an army of lawyers waiting to make your life Hell on earth. They'll screw you around for years, hoping to break you financially and mentally. Ethical? Hardly, but that's what "lazy" employees are all about, right? They purposely get hurt so they can sue poor CEO's like Smith and cash-in. Sorry, but that's just not the way it is.
Using this type of logic, a meteor could fall from the sky and strike your truck, which would of course be your fault, since you should have "anticipated" the meteor. How silly of me not to check the astronomy report to see if there were any meteor showers expected today.
Right Wingers, you're just plain ignorant of the facts. Fred S is a union-buster of the worst kind, and an incredible liar as well. Yet you admire him, much in the way you admire other tyrants of the conservative bent. He abuses the people who work for him, flaunts the law, and does pretty much whatever he wants to because he has big money. There are very few lazy Express employees. The FedEx system simply doesn't permit them to exist. Please continue worshipping your great god Smith. If he's the type of person you admire, I truly feel sorry for you. I guess ignorance is bliss on the far Right.
