They've drunk gallons of the trickle down foolishness and the rich are the only ones getting richer smh

shyt is pathetic fam.

You look at these other 1st world countries and they don't tolerate that foolishness.

But here, it's embarrassing.

Profit sharing and employees being the shareholders used to be more of the norm...but now?

The crazy part is that places like Germany and Japan that have strong unions is due to us when we helped them rebuild after WWII...we should definitely have people out here like they are in France right now

I was about to say…our UPS drivers are always happy when they stroll through. FedEx drivers are rarely as chipper
Tell me family, I hear nothing but horrible shyt about Ground, Express isn't much better except the benefits.

But now they merging into FedEx One, they removed premium pay, they not really hiring FTs no more, these bytch azz pilots striking again.
Raj got a mess on his hands in the coming weeks, expect some package delays.

Corporate Worship and the subsequent stockholm syndrome associated with it by many disgusts me. But this country is due for a reset. Greed, Cism, Nonstop fukkery, My side "winning" being more important than doing the right thing. All pathetic.

Unfortunately that's the truth from what I hear from guys still working there, very miserable working conditions. I had a good run and filed my paperwork 9 years ago. Haven't had to work since. :thumbsup: My pension and 401k was sold to two mutual fund companies and then FedEx bought me a lifetime annuity with a giant rock solid insurance company in NYC.
For almost 28 years I had to deal with blizzards in Conn and tropical storms in S. Florida. Paid my dues. Made some stacks when UPS Teamsters went on strike back in 97.

It's wild that there was actually push back on that. Especially when you realize they've been out in this heat wave. I've been telling people we gotta get these unions back so they can get some of these corporations to the table for better work conditions
Only bummer is it's only for the new trucks

Places down south in smaller rural areas are still gonna be stuck with the old ones :francis:

Still happy for the folks who'll get to enjoy it. Been long overdue
