So they wanted you to use the fedex name, but now they want people to know you're a seperate entity delivering fedex frieght? I don't get it
It will be fine

It's pretty dumb. I went to the patch website, it looks kinda ghetto. Says you have to sew them on with navy thread.

Too much bad press from their own creation I bet.

Very obvious, and kind of desperate. This is all about separating FDX from the contractors, as in "FedEx Ground, dba as Boris and Yankov". Putting the information on uniforms serves the same purpose. In other words, FedEx is worried that Ground drivers will be legally considered employees, which, of course, they are.
Actions like this mean they are quite concerned about the status of Ground, and also probably means that they are preparing to fight it with steps like this one.
It's stupid, but smart at the same time. I think Fred knows his Golden Goose is in peril. Sammy will be on here shortly to tell us otherwise.

It's Ground so I don't really care one way or the other, but you might be able to find a fabric glue that would hold up.
It's still their DOT # no matter what the name says.
I think you're wrong. The model is in no danger. They do, however want to protect from drivers claiming "dual employment".
Great!!! now your drivers will look like thugs in ghetto outfits, and not jail escapes in a Express wannabe outfit.
Maybe. I'm not putting my company name on the uniform.

hmm, they did away with branding their vehicles by stating, "Operated by BBSaM Corp"
& now they want these dumb rectangular patches???
i carry 3 shirts on my package car on a given day & probably change it out 1 time during the spring/summer months (because i don't want to be a stinky pig)
my sub-contractor will have to give me about a dozen then...
so, how much of a bonus pay to have these patches on the uniforms?

Fine, but you are denying the true purpose of this move, which isn't about brand promotion at all.
I'm pretty sure I addressed that in posts 12 and 16.
