Here's one thing you can count on. FedEx will push every expense it can possibly get away with onto the employees and then spin-it so it looks like they're doing you a favor. Unfortunately, most of the Kool-Aid drinking morons will believe it. If Smith doesn't get his way on the RLA he's not going to be able to do it for fear that it will push more people toward signing cards. Listen-up fence-sitters. If Smith wins, he's going to screw you like never before because there's nothing holding him back. He's not your buddy, so put the Kool-Aid down, do a little research, and finally get it into your pointy tin-foil hatted heads that he's a conniving SOB that has zero consideration for his hourly employees. Translation: Quit being ignorant and see Smith for who and what he really is.
