You want me to be friends with my employees? Why?
More bad press from...of course GROUND
- Thread starter Working4the1%
- Start date
I had an employee commit suicide. Would you expect me to financially support his family for the next 30 years?

Hopefully the card that you sent was more sympathetic.

How many successful people do you think have the mindset of expecting other people to take care of them?
Aren't your employees taking care of you. ? Look man you're nothing more than a human Judas Goat. You lead those people up to X where they can freely use, misuse, and abuse them because they are not legally bound to them in any way shape or form while you just stand there and watch. And when they and you are done with them they're tossed back out into the economy to fend for themselves and no better skilled at that while you go search for more.
You try to tell us about how you're doing so much to help them prepare for advancement in the workforce. And just how are you doing that?
Here, let me help you out. I'll just label my comments "funny' or "creative" so you don't have to.

Well since Healthcare is a HUMAN right..
You rely on Medicaid for your LOW wage pay

I pay half my employee’s health insurance premiums. That doesn’t address your desire for someone else to take care of you. Seriously do yourself a favor and move past the infantile mindset of expecting your employer to be your parent. That’s not their role in your life.
I don’t do cards.

Their advancement in the economy at large is not my responsibility. I offer a wage for a job. They accept it and gain commercial driving experience. Why do you think an employer owes their employees more than the compensation both parties agree on?
Ain’t America great?

Just telling it like it is
Easy for you to say. Maybe you’re too cheap.
If that's the most credible response you've got you're better off not saying anything.
I disagree. And eventually the labor movement in this country will get off their dead asses and do something to make it better.
LMFAO! Since when has a non CDL driving position been considered to be commercial driving experience? That's like trying to say that delivering boxes out of the trunk of your car is "commercial driving experience".
Your attempt to deflect blame onto a broad segment of the economy is clear proof why it's would be better for you if you were to say nothing.

You don’t think driving a 26ft straight truck counts as commercial driving experience? You don’t think companies are looking for drivers with that experience? Your lack of understanding of labor is truly exceptional.
Your attempt to deny the truth of what I say is proof that you know I’m right.
We’ve had several drivers in our building go and drive at both Express and UPS. Did experience at Ground not count?

I traveled 1200 miles to attend a mans funeral I worked for for 10 years that had fired me 15 years previous to his death. It's safe to say you will not have no one attend your funeral with a like story.
He is remembered to this day by hundreds of former workers and their families for the way he treated his employees. This man could buy and sell you a hundred times over, minimum.
You're afraid to have a relationship with your employees because it may cost you something one day.
Don't confuse yourself with a titan of industry, you only run a little package delivery service at the pleasure of FedEx. Nothing more, nothing less.

No, I would expect you to attend the funeral and share the grief and extend compassion to the family. I'm sure you did both.
You try to project a tuff guy image but you've got a heart.
I'd even say every once and awhile you might check up on them and see if you could be of any service to them. It's just the proper thing to do.
