Actually, I'm probably going to reap a pretty good profit from the reorganization and I and a few others around here started to see it coming a couple years ago. No offense taken.

FedEx Express' best chance to unionize was in the late 1990's, so it's TOO LATE to bring the Teamsters in ! SORRY

Ground is going to help destroy the UPS teamsters next.....
Agree with that. When the Democrats had the Senate, Congress and the White House, they wouldn't help you. No-one's gonna help you now.

The Dems never had 60 senators,and as I remember two republican senators from Tennessee put a hold on Olbertar's reathorization bill.
I would rather thank the 59 democrats and independents that voted FOR the bill, rather than say its their fault.
Every time I put on the news it's A**hole republicans screaming about one union or another

The conservative media also threw some BS at the American public at the time.
Besides Fox News touting the union "Brown Bailout" to Conservative columnists George Will's Op'Ed slamming the Democrats and the bill, it also included many false statements about FedEx operations and benefits that played into their distortions.
95% of elected Democrats supported that bill, 0 republicans did.
I know who had who's back.

As vague as Mitt Romneys tax plan.
How does that translate into English for Joe Mo , average courier with a family to feed....

It was discussed at the shindig. Did you watch it? There are some details in the slides that were included as part of the presentation. Did you look at them?

No I did not watch it.
I am not as privileged as you with a seat right up Freds butt.
That's why I asked....

Are you smart enough to go to the fedex website? Because that's where the presentation was shown and the slides are.

Go to wherever you got the "up Fred's butt" remark and see if the answer is there.

Cry me a river. Back in the 90's I was on the organizing committee for my Teamster Local. We spent many days outside of the local FedEx locations trying to get your fellow employees to sign cards. Can count on two hands the number of people we got signed up. Most were happy the way they were being treated or just didn't want to make waves. We could only beat a dead horse for so long and gave up on our efforts.
If you want the Teamsters to step up to the plate now I suggest you start a grass roots effort to get the word out to the majority of your fellow employees that a union may be in their best interest long term. Once a major commitment is shown by a large percentage of FedExers I believe the Teamsters would jump back in with money and personnel. The ball is in your court!
This is exactly what I said yesterday. If Walmart workers can make some waves than these FDX guys can also. THE MEDIA LOVES THIS STUFF!
Harry Reid always had the "nuclear option" of a simple majority of 51 if he chose to exercise it. But hey, dangle that out there and watch the millions come rolling into the campaign coffers. Stop living in denial amigo. The name of the game is money. Fred has got it, we don't. Guess who got their way?
