Been plenty of time already.

It takes longer than a month to get anything accomplished...you being pro-union you should know this already.

I haven't seen Hammer walking with a limp....but if he did it would be from all of the butt kickin he's been doing on TB!!!

I haven't seen him since the cookout.

So a bonus a few months from now is supposed to make the world better?

That's you speculating I didn't say anything about a bonus did I. In this day and time a company this large it takes time to implement any change for anything. Just be patient.

When I saw you at the last cookout in CLT, you were telling me about how much better the insurance was here than where your spouse works.

Shouldn't be much longer until the union topic won't need a spot on the FedEx site. With all of the no votes along with the ones the teamsters have pulled out of due to lack of interest the fire is pretty much out. The 3 terminals that voted yes are the real losers in all of this. While the rest of the company gets raises they won't. In a year it's a no brainer that a revote will be won by FedEx in a landslide at those 3 barns.

I'm not so sure about your prediction that no raise would come to those that voted yes. Not saying you're wrong, I'm just not sure. Conway announced sweeping raises immediately following the Laredo YES vote. Someone need want to venture over into the Conway forum and snoop around a bit, just to find out if Laredo was left out.

You like to point out how many centers (300+) have yet to vote yes, it might appear like retaliation if 3 (or 4?) centers were excluded, unless a freeze, was in fact, put in place at those locations.

Lookie here they both work at union companys.

Keep chasing the dogs tail red racer. It will and has taken over your life.

 

[SwampRatt]

How much longer?

Be patient sir.

The above looks exactly like a typical interaction between a a dispatcher and a city driver on the intermec... Kinda funny.
