[QUOTE="Fourputt, post: 1082394, member: 43881"] I agree with you completely bbsam. I like the point of view of the other guys, benefits for everyone, nice working environments, etc, but I'm not shocked it's not there. The ceo of fedex sounds like a real :censored:, but he's no different than other managers and ceo's I've worked under. Stepping on the little guy to make more money is not a new concept. I do not get benefits, true. I know that if I want benefits and a good career I have to get off my ass and go get it. I think I am on a slow course towards that. If an idiot like me can get through school and (hopefully) have some job prospects at the end, anyone can. I'm beginning to see the origins of all this hatred, which is good because it answers my question. On the topic of ground guys being unprofessional, I think I can agree and disagree. Personally, I work with a few real hacks and I've seen some things that are unprofessional. The ground guys I work with on the 2 neighboring routes are solid. I'd take them over anybody. I remember over christmas my truck broke down and one night we were out until 2am with flashlights, and up at 6 am the next morning. I did come off the streets, and I may not have spent 15 years as a package handler before becoming a driver, but I consider myself a professional driver. I was in the military and drove all kinds of vehicles in adverse conditions. I don't idle my vehicle, I always try to keep a spot open for people when I park, I maintain my vehicle on my own time, etc. On the flip side, I do work with a few slobs. They have no concept of driving, the cabs of their trucks are piled with wrappers, trash, and they never wash their vehicle. Anyway, great insight. Keep it going! [/QUOTE]
