[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 710619, member: 12508"] GFT is a joke. Anyone who maintains it is a legitimate grievance process needs to have their head examined. How could we come to regret a union when we have nothing to lose as it stands right now? FedEx does whatever it wants whenever it wants to. If they want to outsource our work, we just have to sit back and watch. It's the same with top-out times. If they decided to up-it to 30 years, what could we do about it? Nothing. And it's always been that way...completely on their terms. If we walk and Smith tries to lock us out (if we go union), he'll be in deep trouble quickly. Customers won't wait around for FedEx to get back up to speed...they'll just leave. Nobody here has ever expected a contract that would replicate what they have over at UPS. I think all we're asking for is to be treated fairly, which certainly isn't happening right now. Even if we only get $2.00 per hour in raises it will be worth it just to force Smith to both have some respect for us and bring his uppity butt over to the bargaining table. He needs a lesson in humility. [/QUOTE]
