All DRA does is ensure overtime and ensure lates.
73% whhooppiee, during these times it should have gone 100%.
FedEx owns the brand and customers don't pay contractors directly for transport of their freight. So for all intended purposes, they are all operated by FedEx.
So you think the Ground model is more efficient than Express. Good to know, and even @Cactus agrees.
Pretty easy when you have no time commit.
That’s a fallacy. It also has nothing to do with the conversation.
Fallacy? C'mon bro! Lol
As long as that truck has Fedex DOT number and it's brand name on the side of it and the only thing that's in it is Fedex bar coded freight and Fedex assigns the geographical area in which it runs it simply does NOT matter who's name is on the title. It is still a Fedex sanctioned and CONTROLLED operation. And any claim to the contrary is simply not supported by the facts.
Has nothing to do with Ground operating more efficiently because the contractor has skin in the game. If you saw how small my routes were you’d understand that time commits wouldn’t be a big deal.
They most certainly do, especially when you consider the pu side as well. Your pure ground operation is as simple as it gets.
Has nothing to do with the structure of Ground being better at cost control. Time windows aren’t a big deal. I know you want to believe you’re special but it’s not that complicated.
Sorry @It will be fine, your drivers aren't doing 200+ stops with time commits and pups and getting done by 1700. That's a fallacy.
Yup. Most are done by 16:00.
If an area serviced, by a Ground truck that leaves its bulkhead open while the driver is delivering, is robbed, who’s business and reputation is damaged?
No he doesn’t.
This is exactly what I've talked about. These two drivers were contractor employed drivers but were fired by Ground. Another glaring example and conclusive proof of the absolute power and control of Fedex Ground including firing another employer's employees. And some people on here claim that they're "building a business".......(LMFAO!)
And here's the really funny part . After the public embarrassment and media firestorm resulting from their firing of another employer's employees Ground now comes back and says that THEY are now providing employment to the contractor employed drivers they fired.
