[McFeely]

I did a few months ago. Got have the right Senior. It was his idea and the wife said Ok. working 3 days on my same route w 4 day weekends.. Pretty sweet

I like this but you sound like the old shart guy a lil bit.

 

[McFeely]

I wish I was part time.

That’s the dream! My expenses still need FT pay but one of these days it may happen soon.

Not even close. I'm less than 6 months from cutting the cord...

LOL! A bigwig achieves that status from moving the needle in his previous positions. Doesn't mean they have the Midas touch or that every future decision will be right but it means they have successfully taken on more responsibility and greater challenges than the hecklers in the peanut gallery.

So these bigwigs got credit for a resilient system not cracking from stupid decisions? If they don't have the "Midas touch" then taking on responsibility and succeeding implies that they got lucky or exist as a scapegoat.

Full timers aren't allowed to go part time any more.

False. Had to transfer to make it happen though.

My manager asked me if I wanted to go PT instead of retiring. March 2022

My better half was told PT was reserved for new hires. 4 positions opened and she was denied them all, with nearly 25 years of service. She retired. Now I'm stuck with her all day!

Why didn't your wife on her rural 4x10 simply bid on one of the open 5x8 routes that typically only get 6 hours of work and then effectively could have been "PT"?

Huge if true.

That's when a call to HR is warranted to verify or debunk. Dumb allowing a 25 year courier to retire when they didn't have to.

Tried to downgrade last year, SM said nope, too short handed. So I retired.

My guess, you're the problem in the equation.
I hope she doesn't murder you my friend.

With inflation hovering close to double digits, it has to be a step at least.

There is no "has to be" anything with fedex unfortunately. Should be maybe but not has to be.

 

[purplelife]

So what's the AIC this year? Last year was 150% so everyone got those big bonuses.

FTFY

I take it as a badge of honor that someone who doesn't work for the company will create an account to argue with me.
