[QUOTE="fdxsux, post: 5883257, member: 36946"] It’s not the employees that are inefficient, it’s Fedex policies, procedures, and decisions. Fedex just built a 38 million dollar station in my town of 60,000 people to “combine “ Express and Ground. All the trucks are parked inside. We pay to heat it in the winter and cool it in the summer (yes, the warehouse as well). It’s huge. Tons of lights, cameras, etc. The UPS facility is a tiny little strip of a building that has been there forever. It’s just big enough for one belt to run down the center. Trucks are all parked outside. Cheap, efficient. We go to a stop and scan every stupid package, even if there are hundreds of them. UPS rolls up and scans a cons tag and throws it all in their truck. And then there is the little issue of Fedex sending two drivers to every regular stop for the last 30 or so years instead of just sending one. Fedex is sooooo inefficient ! These are just a few examples. There is plenty of money to be found to pay employees better, Fedex just doesn’t care to look for it. Frankly, they don’t have to. If we were union you’d better believe they would find the money to pay us! [/QUOTE]
