This totally sucks.

Well it was bound to happen.Unfortunately Harrison will probably be the brains behind our new and improved piece of shit company.Look foward to dock aerobics and constant badgering about pph and bph.Thats the secret weapon to save money.Do not look at the backwards operating model.Blame the problems on the employees.Rat fucking us again.Oh yeah and to really make everyone feel great about this new plan there will not be a blending of the 2 companies employee pool.Instead one will be put at the bottom of the others board regardless of company senority.I for one think thats absolute boolshit.Even if I was to loose a spot or two.You rat bastards still don't get it do you?Hey Fred do us all a favor and hire some execs that know how to run a FREIGHT company will you.This hub and spoke is costly and antiquated.Willie you have really disappointed me.7 months into your tenure and we are still doing the same money loosing scheme.Get me off the dock and back in a truck with the rest of my drivers and we will show you what profit is.To my national brothers we are here for you.To my y'all boys kiss my hairy unwashed ass.Fuyff here we go again.

thanks Stimpy,the rumor is they are closing our terminal (Cincinnati)and they are moving us the the Columbus hub.Totally doesn't make sense but nothing they have done makes since. We are the busiest terminal in a major metro area but we are land locked. So I guess they will send us up there even though they have a Freight yard in Fairfield that has 150 doors and only using half. Will half to wait to see how this pans out but I'm sure its not going to be good.

We wish all of you folks in Cincinnati well in the evolution of this back assward change. I don't believe the shareholders are very happy at this point, do you?

If senority is NOT dovetailed and one group gets totally fucked over that will be the time for Joe to get the Union cards out. We've been screwed out of our time in enough already!!! Hell, maybe this is exactly what Hoffa is waitng for. Because THAT game plan will cause a MAJOR uprising.

I've said before, and I'll say again, the quickest way to start the union in this company is to fuck over the National fellas. Here it comes, like it or not.

Sounds like some are going to lose in this one ,well strike this we all lose ,friends,money,time,benies I am really getting worn down by this micro managment and ever changing game plan I am more than ready for my pay,job duties ,and benies to be set in stone with a contract . Mr. Hoffa is looking so good to myself and the Brothers at my barn

Like I said before, THE RED CARPET has been rolled out for the Teamsters by FedEX.

One thing for sure........they can't say they weren't warned...........Let me be the first to say I told you so. Seems like these guys are deliberatly sabatoging (sp?) a profitable working business model. For what reason? Tax write off??? Wonder how they sleep at night not caring how many families loyal to their jobs have been fucked over. Oh well, if they do tank the thing we can all go to work for the competition and take our customers with us. One thing I do know about my customers, they wouldn't like to hear the way this company has been treating us and would probably, understandbly, take their business elsewhere. Not that Fred gives a rat fuck I am sure since he only gives a shit about the package stuff anyway. Guess what Fred??? Package STILL has the FedEx name attached and you sorely underestimate what bad repetation can do to ones' business.
