[QUOTE="newgirl, post: 784673, member: 30504"] Which is why time and again FEDEX is called the Walmart of shipping. How can a company that makes so much money have people on welfare and food stamps? Way back when the money did trickle down. There were bonues, BPP payouts, raises, lead incentives etc. to motivate the employee. That all stopped when Memphis realized all they had to do was buy out the competition. We started with Tigers and rolled on and over. Now it's time for Express to roll over and die. Watch what's going on with the freight. Is your station rolling freight? Pissing customers off? Watch the downsizing of the trucks, no more buying equipment, uniforms, paper, pens, etc. How many ground and HD drivers do you see in your area? More? Is your sales person selling express or ground? Speaking of sales, where are they? We put in leads and they never get followed up on. Customers tell our guys all the time they haven't heard from anyone yet. Customers are saavy. They know when all the drivers show up. If a ground package gets there earlier and faster than an express package, what do they choose? I am working on an exit strategy. [/QUOTE]
