FedEx contractor revolt?

[59 Dano]

You believe he’s done and gone? Was the lawsuit dropped or settled?

I suppose that’s possible…or…

His lawyers suggested he remain silent for now?

Which do you think is really going on?

What do I think is really going on? I think that there's still a handful who bought into him hook, line, and sinker and they're hoping against hope that he and his schtick are legit.

 

[59 Dano]

Do you believe FedEx is being truthful about how many failures they are having? We’re not even to peak volume day yet. Still 22 days til Christmas? And already rolling freight?

Why do you believe in these people?

I don't deny that there are terminals that are stinking it up. That's a far cry from catastrophic failure of the entire system.

The guy leading the charge got real quiet. No need to get quiet when you're telling the truth.

Perhaps I should be more direct. If you were his attorney, what advice would you give?

When being sued?!? Absolutely not.

Trump might live by those words. Maybe that’s why attorneys stay away from him.

Of course. Just as one location doing something else doesn't reflect the company as a whole.

It's dark outside my window. I BET IT'S DARK EVERYWHERE!!1!

It always will be until you get out and wash your cellar windows every once in awhile.

I'd tell him to go about his business. The truth is an absolute defense. No need for him to be quiet.

Unless FedEx has evidence that his claims are quantifiably wrong enough to be considered absolute BS and he has nothing to corroborate his side.

 

[It will be fine]

I take it you’ve never met a lawyer before.

Met plenty. Related to some.

It's one thing for him to pipe down, and another entirely for the whole organization fall apart. But hey, I don't blame any of you for holding out hope considering how vigorously you fluffed him.

Route consultant is up and running. I’m not sure where you’re getting the idea that the whole organization fell apart, most likely your rear end. They still have weekly webinars, Spencer still hosts some of them. They are still doing their roadshows and new investor summits. All he’s stopped is the media blitz.

And the hits keep on comin.

Can FedEx dig Ground Economy out of a hole?

The shift from an alliance with the Postal Service to an in-house operation hasn’t gone as well as hoped for FedEx.

What are the changes that are coming?

What are the changes that are coming?

I’d say something significant. Something has too

 

[HedleyLamarr]

FedEx will shore up Ground by giving them more and more Express freight.

FedEx will shore up Ground by giving them more and more Express freight.

I have to ask , why would they do that ?

 

[zeev]

I have to ask , why would they do that ?

Cheap cheap labor

It’s what they’ve announced they’re doing. It’s what they are piloting in several markets. It’s by far the cheapest option going forward.

It’s also quite possibly the most expensive way to deal with public relations as seen from recent articles and events.

The public has goldfish memories and is easily manipulated. Corporate will take a few more press releases over buying billions of dollars of trucks.
