[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1508544, member: 12508"] I just watched the news video, and took great interest in the jury comment that "FedEx needed to improve driver training". I would be willing to bet that the Ground driver had little experience and the bare minimum of training required to get a CDL. And if you consider the Ground business model as a whole, who drives for Ground? Low experience non-professionals willing to work for the low pay and zero benefits offered by Ground contractors. In addition, who contracts with FedEx? In general, it's the low-ball operator who cuts corners on safety because that's how they do it back in Backwardistan where they came from. Poor maintenance and lousy training? Who cares? As long as Boris and Fred make money, it's all good. And when one of Boris' quality drivers does something like this, FedEx immediately throws everyone under the bus so they don't have to pay. Does FedEx know that Ground is an unsafe operation? You bet they do, but nobody cares because it's all about the money. Sickening. [/QUOTE]
