Probably a very small station if it’s even true anyway. Nobody’s getting relocated from one state to another state tho lmao. Everyone’s so over the top dramatic on these forums it’s jokes.
Well it’s a recession it’s normal for hours to be cut. If you wanna resign that’s up to you. I’d much rather get 35 hours than 0 hours. Would I like it? No. Is it enough to pay the bills? Yes. Volume will pick up towards summer again anyway.
They did it to a senior manager. The guy ended up having a stroke within 3 months and was out on long term disability. Came back for another two weeks or so and then retired. Fat Freddy wins again
The entire company has be running on reconstituted bull feces ( can't use the s word here) for quite some time. And when people get used to the smell that they don't even notice it after awhile.
Full timers are guaranteed 35 hours
As of right now , we are guaranteed 35 hours.
The guarantee is a tool for retention. It wouldn’t be surprising if they suspended it to lower headcount.
Barney says it's hard to be purple, and it's obvious you understand. I've never swung on the nut sac (you spelled it wrong) as you described. I've been a consistent critic of FedEx and basically predicted much of what has happened over the last few years. Yes, you call it as you see it, but it seems to be through purple-tinted shades, and you called it wrong.
35 hours are guaranteed and have been forever even through 2008.
They're still not laying anyone off tho. Yeah they will cut hours to bare minimums to "force" people out but if you stick it out through that you got a job for life. When you sign the dotted paper fully says on there that as a part time you are guaranteed 17.5 hours and they just cut your hours down to that, they're well within their rights to do that. Part timers are technically never supposed to work full time hours. Doesn't make sense to cry and moan about the company cutting hours to minimum amounts indicated on the contracts.
so one person out of what? 500k employees? Senior managers get moved all the time within the company you know this. That's part of their job and they get paid insane dough for it.
I think a lot will depend on your station size. Obviously I think express is king due to the revenue it brings per package. In no way would I trust ground with ANY quality deliveries.
Easier said than done.
lol I mean you know that Fedex actually isn't the end all be all right? There are actually laws and state rules to make changes to full time and part time hours. In every state and country there are guaranteed hours for full and part time employees that companies must abide by no ifs ands or buts. Just cause fedex doesn't like it there's nothing they can do, it's the law. So no they can't change the rules about guaranteed hours unless they want major lawsuits.
