There might be driver meetings in fontana today.We will have some VIP's around. If you here talk about any anti-union matters, please inform any of your Organizers if this happens. There could be some Labor Laws being broken. Just because these people are upper management, it doesn't put them above the law!

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT 20% ????
June18, 2007
Fedex Freight announced its revamping of the VPEP.The Company said that they would be withholding 20% from hourly employees and 50% from salary employees from your bonus checks. Then distribute the withholdings the following fiscal year. Most likely, when you get that incentive money back, it will be taxed, they get it pre-taxed. In addition, do not forget your 401K contribution!
What happens to that 20% -50% that whole year?
July 23, 2007
FedEx Corp announces that it will trim fuel surcharges today by 25% on cargo carried by its FedEx Freight divisions to lure business. Seems that FredEx is supplementing the fuel surcharges most likely from YOUR VPEP,from YOUR INCENTIVE BONUS’. Instead of charging the customers. Better Yet! Did Fred Smith get a percentage taken away from him? I do not think so! It could be that his “CONTRACT” would not allow this!
