Last time I looked that’s what it said. Who knows though whether it’s changed?
I don’t even need 24hrs. Just let me know before I punch out. I get paid by the hour. Hell if I’m going to wake up and call FedEx only to be told to stay home for a couple more hours. I don’t even think about this place when I’m off the clock.

Either labour laws extremely lax down there or FedEx plays games because they know there are still idiots that work for this company that will call in.
Here, labour law states 24 hours notice is needed for a scheduled shift change. A call in line would be a huge no, no. I have never heard of a call in line until I started posting here. A warning letter for not calling a call in line would have the labour board at the station so quick, the manager wouldn't know what happened.

It’s a combination of both, but more ignorance of Policy on the part of many and not willing to stand up against management. I’m one of the idiots calling in right now because I’m tired of fighting and I don’t have the same need for money I had for many years. I WILL look up the policy though when I get off the road out of curiosity.

I’ve never had to fight them on it, but I don’t call in on the day of. I’ll come in late if notified the day before so I can plan ahead.
If we have a 5 hour late start (this happened in the last 2 weeks a few times) I would not be sitting at the station for 5 hours doing grunt work or sitting on my butt. I’d rather sleep in or go get some stuff done.

Yes, that is nice. But they can’t pay you for the Sunday. I’d be somewhat sure that Monday would be paid.
It will be fine

I’m not sure why they separate Ground and HD anymore other than for pickups. Even if a customer had a pickup on Easter we’d still do it.

Mark them as closed when you deliver to them earlier that month. Takes care of that.
All resi but five businesses only!
I think there are a few separate Ground and HD terminals around the country. My contractor still separates business “Ground” routes and resi “HD” routes. It sounds like many contractors still do from reading a Ground Facebook group.

So once someone is off the clock they are obligated to work off the clock? You're a *ing joke bro.
Well, at least one of isn't thoroughly confused by policy.They are suggestions. Thanks for playing.

Oooooooo we got a tough guy on our hands here. No messing around with this bad ass
It's simple. Some people want to create all sorts of issues. Alrighty, they can have all sorts of issues.
Happens from time to time to anyone in a leadership position, you wouldn't understand.
