[QUOTE="code5, post: 591252, member: 11550"] I was at a scheduled pickup and the fed ex ground driver was picking up at the same time like usual. He was a pretty good guy and we got along pretty good. Anyways this day his truck had broke down and he was doing pickups in his own personal vehicle. The shipper had some really big boxes he couldn't fit into his car. He asked me jokingly if I could take them back to the his depot for him. I laughed it off, then threw them in my package car and told the shipper I was doing this for them, not FEDEX. It wasn't fair to the shipper that FedEx put their driver in a position where the customer would have to sacrifice for it. I got quite the ribbing when I drove the UPS package car into the Fedex depot and dropped the packages off. We are in a small city and everyone knows everyone. That shipper appreciated the fact that I got those packages where they needed to be and credits UPS, not FEDEX for that shipment. They would have used UPS in the first place, but they are a pack and ship company and their customer demanded FEDEX. [/QUOTE]
