[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1107637, member: 12508"] Thanks for the kind words, but the unionizing effort isn't going so well as of late. R1a is the real driving force for a union here...I'm just his wingman. Employee/management relations at FedEx are very one-sided. Management knows they hold all the cards and power, and act accordingly. We have no legitimate grievance process, and management successfully intimidates and eliminates employees fairly easily. We move fewer packages, but cover much wider areas than a UPS driver. For example, I have 3 UPS package cars within my route boundaries. We also deal with on-call pickups vs. house stops, meaning that a customer can call-in rightup to the cutoff time and still get a pickup the same day. This makes for some "interesting" route planning. Most of us have seen our OT disappear as FedEx moves to a part-timer based business model, but that doesn't limit the harassment. [/QUOTE]
