I had a great time learning about how the Union can help guarantee my job and benefits on Sunday. I am really glad we will have a meeting in Whittier around where I live and work next Saturday. Thanks

At Whittier management is up to their old tricks again. Supervisors on PM are following employees into the bathroom and peeking in the stalls again while employees are using the toilet.
Also supervisors are staring at Union Yes employees while they take their breaks trying to intimidate them. Keep the dirty side down please.....

Looks like someone told mr smith were asking the teamsters for help. Dont be fooled by that july vpep thats just a bandaid on these big cuts were seeing, Stop the bleeding by signing those cards. To many changes in start times benefits and such, just come out to these meetings and be part of our new idenity TEAMSTERS BABY.

I am looking for some kind of reassurance my full time benefits aren't going to be cut by this company. I will be there in Whittier Saturday to see what else the Teamsters can do for me and my family. From what I have heard the Teamsters sound as if they are for helping me and my family as my wife works also. Fedex seems as if they just might try to cut my benefits back and I don't want to take a risk on their false promoses anymore.

Tonight at Fedex Freight WHT an employee was harassed. This employee attended the Fedex Union meeting on Sunday and is now being terrorized at work. He was yelled at today to hurry up by the trailer caller and then a supervisor told him he only did 2000 pounds per hour and then continued to berate this worker as this worker was being harrassed he told the supervisor "you are yelling at me cause I went to the Union meeting?". The supervisor turned around and walked away. Here is a big reason why we need a Union at Fedex to stop this constant harrassment.

I saw that supervisor approach the employee and then the employee looked very distraught and stressed afterwards. I don't know why the PM supervisors think they can treat employees that way there is no reason why the supervisors have to become irate and yelling at empoyees in a threatening manner.

This vpep from management is just a smoke screen so they can take our benefits away. They are trying to say here is a vpep and 2 barbeques and by the way at the beginning of the year we are going to take your benefits away. Shame on them for lying to us for so long we need a Union to keep them in line and to teach them how to show us dignity and respect on the job. Us drivers and dockworkers work the hardest in the company. We are what keep the company moving and without us the management wouldn't have a job. We are the ones who make Fedex what is is today and we should be treated respectfully as such.

It was good to see employees from Whittier seeing beyond the outright lies of the company and to meet the shop steward dockworker from newly unionized UPS Freight. I never knew that the dockworkers from UPS Freight made 25.00 per hour. That was really eye opening. That increase in pay along with the lower deductible in medical insurance could really help my family. I think the Union is a positive choice for a positive future.

5000 pounds per hour is bull. thats just a way for the managers to get rid of people. we need to go union now before all these changes come. the managers are trying to take our jobs away and lower our pay. they dont appreciate nothing. Union Hoffa Now

I was there in Whittier at Broadway park Saturday and it was good to see some new faces and some old ones. Enough employees are finally waking up to see that the company is trying to hurt them and their loved ones. This was a good company and it is not anymore. Which means we need to make Fedex a better company and have it go Union. See you at the next meeting in Rialto my friends. GO UNION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't believe the constant lies and rumore Fedex is putting out about the Union it is just a total distortion of the facts. Why does Fedex Freight only contibute 13 cents per hour into their portable pension while the UPS Freight puts 6 dollars per hour into the Teamsters pension? Also no retiree medical for Fedex while the Teamsters have full retiree medical. Advantage Teamsters for a Better future. Fedex is way behind.

with these supervisors at WHT PM harrassing employees they must do it because they are scared the Union is here to stay which it is.
