[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1480922, member: 12508"] Ah, but according to Fred and the upper crust, we aren't an integral part of the company. Funny how they take the credit when things go well, and we get the blame when they don't. Until that basic mindset changes, our lot isn't likely to improve. In my district, we had a cartage agent Christmas. Hordes of them used every day for the last couple of weeks at $20 per hour (and much more than that for the contractor who provided them). These folks were far more productive than our new hires, but at a very high cost. I'm disappointed that the system didn't implode, but we had mild weather nationwide and I don't think they got the volumes they were expecting. We'll see what the financials are in a few weeks, and that will tell us if Fred spent the company into a black hole trying to prevent a repeat of last year's debacle. I may have been off about the implosion, but I still think there's a back story. No preparation until the last few weeks, and then, expensive "solutions" for non-productive FedEx personnel. [/QUOTE]
