[QUOTE="TUT, post: 734553, member: 29298"] To MrFedex's list of why a Fedex Ground Driver Sucks: 1. Not in proper uniform 2. Lack of attention to personal appearance and hygiene 3. Beards. Scraggly or untrimmed 4. English. Often not so good 5. Tattoos. Frequent and large 6. Driving skills. Sometimes not so great 7. Safety. Again, sometimes not so good. 8. Vehicles. Often dirty or dented 9. Service ability. Often poor or otherwise deficient. Unable to provide reliable and timely deliveries and pickups. RE: GSO in California has been taking UPS business solidly for 2 years now. Overnight from socal to norcal and vice versa. Resi and other services free where UPS charges for them on top of already higher base rates then GSO. I can tell you GSO drivers are well below what you believe Fedex Ground drivers are.
