2 centers on in the northeast that shall remain nameless were told last month that center A was losing 2 runs and that freight would be diverted to center B. Consequently 2 drivers would be allowed to transfer from center A to B to follow freight.
Meh, makes sense right? But here’s the real meat and potatoes
Not only was center A allowed to follow fright but they allowed a 3rd driver to transfer to center B with no freight, but just for the hell of it. To make matters worse, it was determined that it would be on a voluntary basis and anyone in center A could transfer to B and bump with their job class seniority. Mind you the rules on dovetailing were changed the week prior on the interweb.
So now you might say, well, that sucks, but after all it’s FedEx and they’ve always done what they want.
But if what you’ve heard thus far sounds extremely crappy, get a load of this....
Now, center A is looking for 4 (yes 4) road drivers 3 weeks later now that 3 senior guys have decided to transfer to center B.
I don’t need to tell you the implications of this travesty in judgment from transportation. If it happens there, it can happen to you too
