The news also added, that Thornton personally delivered the customer a new computer monitor.

"disciplinary review process" and "not working with customers" is corporate code for "we will make his life hell until he quits so we don't have to pay unemployment to his dumb ass."

Fed ex isnt union, or at least I dont think it is. Would be a little harder with UPS when the mafioso errr I mean union reps show up and fight for the guys job.

I don't think a huge company like FedEx would care about paying unemployment to 1 person. Also, if he was fired for cause (such as gross misconduct), many states will disallow unemplyment anyway.

If FedEx had a clue, they would have fired him just for the PR benefits alone.

So now he's in the shipping area punting boxes around vs over fences, lol

That's Bullshit. Guy just throws it like it's a soccer ball that got kicked over the fence and he helped you out by tossing it back over.

I'd have loved to hear his excuse when they asked him why he did it...Not knowing it was videotaped.

Just goes to show, you never know who's watching.

Not to be outdone...

UPS Driver.

You'd be surprised how hard a large company will fight to prevent mostly the Wrongful Termination lawsuit that invariably happens. Cheaper just to make him quit. Also, even if the DID fire the guy, they can't make it public because of all of the privacy stuff out there (again, lawsuit potential). The guy would end up with a payday even though he fucked up and that just ain't right.

Given the timing, I would have to agree.
