Your job is possible because you came crawling back. BTW, how’s the shill department these days?

Lol people complain when there’s too much freight and FedEx is overworking us wah wah wah. Now y’all complaining that you have to go home before 5. Can’t make this up. Let’s not like express couriers are super hard workers to begin with. Nobody at my station is making a fuss about going home at a reasonable time tbh. Just ride the wave man it’s a whole recession out there every company’s struggling (yes UPS too). Not much FedEx can do when people aren’t buying

They are. Go read their sub on reddit. Let’s also not act like the freight isn’t there either. The freights and the hours are there it’s just not the stops couriers “want”.

Full time topped out drivers are making $41 an hour, guaranteed 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week. They ain't hurting bro.
I mean obviously UPS isn’t gonna reduce their hourly rates bro. But in terms of volume they’re low as well.

Not as low as FedEx. UPS will be just fine. FedEx is a sinking ship.

Still on this site ? SAD
Express is the more expensive option naturally they will be lower during slow times bro it’s common sense. Hehe if 23B in revenues a quarter is a sinking ship then idk what to tell ya

And only 875M net. Reserves better be there to sustain in an economic downturn.
I think the company has been betting on the economic downturn for the past year. Probably why they are happy to watch the revolving door of employees. Soon they’ll be back into the high unemployment/desperate workforce that keeps them more profitable.

Yep , a perfect time for merging and making everyone employees
Maybe. I doubt they have the money for it. I’m positive there aren’t an extra 200,000 trucks on dealer lots ready to be purchased.

Is the government giving welfare to fdx? Image going to the car rental and asking to rent a car for the year. By the time years end rolls around, you probably could've bought that vehicle outright. I say get rid of the response and make the courier do all of his/her area and if there's overtime so be it. It has to be cheaper than hiring extra people to drive around after the primary courier has already been to that location.

Obviously this is a slow transition , who would ever think this could happen overnight
Well why would contractors hang around for it? May as well declare bankruptcy and walk away.

Managers will fill in with the promise of retaining them after the merge as well as the drivers.
With what trucks? I think you’re under the impression that contractors don’t really do anything. While that is my goal every day, it rarely ends up that way.
And I couldn’t begin to imagine how the management at our building could suddenly run 8 operations. They have problems just telling us what we did wrong the previous day.

Maybe they buy them on the cheap from the flooded used truck market.
You think all those bankrupt contractors are going to hang onto their trucks?
