[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 770390, member: 24302"] But don't we have the right to have a national vote under current RLA rules that only requires a simple majority of participating employees voting yes? And aren't you using a bit of hyperbole here? FedEx would be shooting themselves in the foot(and worse), forcing employees to be unsafe to keep their jobs. Accidents, especially involving death, will incur huge lawsuit settlements. And constant turnover will incur huge hiring costs. And guess what? The poor pay and benefits won't attract the quality employees who built this company. It's reflected in the equipment we use. With the power pads and the ROADS system FedEx is acknowledging it must keep the job as simple as possible to attract newhires. But will it keep them? Anyone who's serious about providing his family a good future will see through the propaganda soon enough and start looking for something better. And soon enough the economy will improve and better options will come around. And of course FedEx will respond by raising starting pay, disrespecting those who've loyally worked for them for years for much less than top pay. [/QUOTE]
