I'm not going to help out the new driver because FedEx was too cheap to see that he was properly trained.
Im not going to help the established driver who was sent out way over on stops because FedEx wants to squeeze a little more blood from the turnip.
Im not going to help out the kool aid drinker make service so he can brown nose and talk down everyone else behind their backs.
Im not going to help out the slacker because I don't help slackers out of principal.
Mostly I don't help out because doing so would enrich executive management while putting me into poverty.
Their mouths about hit the floor because they can't believe the random FedEx guy is throwing a tantrum in front of them...

I'd be careful what you say and to who. You never know who overhears and who is friends with who. I went to a REG PUP once and there was a guy I didn't recognize there. I just did my business, joked with the customer, etc. As I'm going out the door, the guy says 'You do a good job'. I say, (kind of blowing it off) 'Thanks...I do my best'. He hands me a card....he worked for FedEx sales.then I go into how we are paid, benefits, and so on. their mouths about hit the floor. i just hope others are out there talking about the lack there of of "brand"
Agreed...whether it's true or not, it just sounds like whining.Their mouths about hit the floor because they can't believe the random FedEx guy is throwing a tantrum in front of them...
The worst part is I like the ground guy on my route but will go to no lengths of helping him. I simply say call the 800 number and talk to someone. Its sad what this company is slowly turning into. Fedex "brand" is no longer hidden to my customers. I put it simply to them. You have a choice who you ship with but if you ship with fedex you are supporting this....then I go into how we are paid, benefits, and so on. their mouths about hit the floor. i just hope others are out there talking about the lack there of of "brand"
The worst part was you rambling on about things which the customer does not need or want to hear about. Do your job and keep your mouth shut.
If a customer starts telling me what a wonderful, well paid job I have I always tell them they have me confused with the UPS guy.
What ever happened to simply making a delivery without all of the rhetoric?
that's always worked out welluse the bickering to unite everyone
use the bickering to unite everyone
We will never unite at our location, the backstabbing, refusing to help one another is full blown here way to go Fred u suck ass

On the contrary. If I was a business owner, and I assumed all delivery companies were on a level playing field, and they aren't, I would want to know. Statistically, a package I picked up has a higher chance of getting delayed or damage than is UPS or Express picked it up. I dealt with constant vehicle failures, coworkers who throw packages, and any number of chaotic things on a daily basis. I told customers to ship UPS every chance I got, and I will continue to do so. UPS is a superior service. Not because the people are any better than me, but because they are paid better, equipped better, and trained better. More $ = better service. It's not rocket science. Keep telling the customers how crappy FedEx is. It gives UPS business, and it's less likely to damage or delay product if not shipped FDX Ground.The worst part was you rambling on about things which the customer does not need or want to hear about.
