[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 866159, member: 24302"] Then why go after older topped out couriers if a union would most likely increase pay for an even larger group anyways? Just a guess, but making us strictly overnight would probably mean too many employees for the work available. If they want to hold to the history of no layoffs at Express then subterfuge is their only option. So who would they like to get rid of? Mid-range employees who are being strung along forever? Or topped out employees who'll make considerably more year after year for some years to come? An official layoff might require them to layoff the least senior people, the cheapest employees. With the implementation of ROADS a senior courier's experience isn't as important either. Of course it's ludicrous to call FedEx a people company when people are thrown out in a bad economy to preserve profit margins. [/QUOTE]
