[QUOTE="Serf, post: 1262214, member: 50254"] Honestly, I admire this. But I think of the way things used to be in America, and the way things are now. When Fedex had a performance based raise system those who were very proficient in there role or "in" with management flourished. Those who made excuses and/or did not work as hard got lower raises. Older employees, (for example 16 yrs and up) who are not at top pay, have an underlying problem. I hang around my station and guys and gals with 8-15 years sing to the heavens about this. Literally. Fedex is fully self insured lol. Sounds like bull and propaganda but think of it this way. Companies like Target and other national chains have cut out benefits for part timers. In lieu of this, Fedex has mostly a part time work force and has changed there plan to what amounts to more or less a "catastrophic care plan". Instead of cutting you out all together. Lastly, at least at my station. There is so much seniority. We have over 15 employees with 25 years and 5 with over 30. It's no secret they make more money then the managers! Buy them out, in addition to senior managers. It's a great gesture. The only downside to it is the people left behind. Who will have seen the "old guard" go. Routes get cut, pay scales, eliminated, and 2-3 part timers fill 1 full timers old slot. Like it or not Fedex still overpays you for your unskilled labor. If it were any different, the respected individual would leave and move on if they could. [/QUOTE]
