[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 289850, member: 12508"] With diesel prices around $3.50 a gallon, the FedEx Ground income predictions seem a bit inflated. "Work Smarter Not Harder" has been around ever since FedEx was created and is one of the most tired and overused catch phrases ever. Believe me, "Work Harder, Not Smarter" is more like it. Just so I would know, I once attended a FedEx Ground informational meeting for potential "contractors". They were very clear that net income would be somewhere between $40,000-$45,000 per individual after expenses, and this was a best case scenario. Remember, that's with no benefits whatsoever.Drivers who bought additional trucks and operated multiple routes would make more. The multiple route "owners" would then pay someone about $10 an hour to make deliveries and then pocket the difference. My experience on the road is that most of these casual drivers are hardly professionals, which is reflected in their less than stellar customer service and driving skills. [/QUOTE]
