When I first started to organize FedEx frt. and was being introduced into Change to Win, I do remember when Russ and Farrin cornered me in Farrin’s office, telling me that the Teamsters will never ever enter at FedEx, that Fred Smith wouldn't allow this. Russ also told me that I would have to organize all of FedEx and that it would be impossible for me to do this by myself. I told Russ and Farrin that it could be done, if man can move mountains across the lands and build islands in the ocean, then nothing is impossible to do and I accepted that challenge. So Rudy and I started networking with terminals in the western region and manage to succeed. Then Rudy and I started to connect with Memphis Tennessee FedEx Express, the mother company and that blow across the entire nation, and now our Brothers and Sisters from Canada, now that is a major labor movement. Wow, like I told you Russ and Farrin nothing is impossible, having faith in God will lead me to the right path.

Joe, with all due respect you and Rudy have to stop patting each other on the back. Because nothing has been accomplished at this point, most people would be suspicious when a Unionizing effort is 20 years in the making, is this USA or is this Central America?
Maybe I’m wrong, are you and Rudy claiming credit for the organization of FedEx Canada?
You must be a F....ing manager or a supervisor from WHT IVN ANA SBO SDO LA OXN Joe Nuno Rudy Hernandez are not claiming credit you fedex management are the one giving credit for the organization of Fedex Canada Rudy and Joe got what you fedex managent dont have BALLS be a man have some balls and put your name when you make a comment same way you had the balls to fire two union organizers Jesse Lopez WHITTIER CA and Tito Ayala ANAHEIN CA let's sign the union cards and vote YES we want the teamsters back to our Whittier terminal gate Whittier driver.
You are wrong buddy. We never said that it was us. All the credit goes to those FedEx employees in Canada who took the responsibility to take control of their work life and ask for respect and dignity at their workplace.
As far as a twenty year organizing. All this started 4 years ago when Joe was asked the be the first non-union employee to appear on the "Change To Win" website comparing a union employee and a non-union employee. Which inspired us,with the help of my daughter to created this website, which we are glad you can read and learn.
