[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1235080, member: 24302"] The way I left was to tell them I was leaving almost 4 months before I finally did. They were shorthanded, and believe me it bothered them. Actually think pretty highly of my last ops mgr, but have no pity for the senior mgr. She was a corporate BSer, and thought she had me when she asked me why didn't I leave if I didn't like the pay situation. She'd never admit it, but I saw the look of shock in her eyes when I told her "but I AM leaving." I had often played out in my mind what I'd say when I finally left, what I'd do. But the look in her eyes, that she needed me more than I needed her, was good enough for me. They think they can get away with everything because they have employees over the barrel. Sometimes it's better to just walk away than to continue to put up with the B.S.. Even if it causes you financial problems. Your next employer might be, heck, probably will be, a lying BSer too, but at least you no longer have to put up with the previous one. And in the case of safety, if a driver is put in an unsafe vehicle, it seems it's the employer/contractor with the moral dilemma concerning those pkgs. If they're on a Ground truck I doubt it's life saving medicine, so folks will just have to wait a little longer for their sweaters and fruitcake. If FedEx wants employees who feel an obligation to protect the freight, then FedEx should act like they have an obligation to be honest with their employees, and keep their promises. Amen. [/QUOTE]
