True Fedex Stories and Rants

Archive for the ‘My Rants’ Category

First off I would like to thank everybody for visiting my blog, its a pleasure to have everybody’s interest and support !

With that being said … I only run the E-Mail stories that I believe to be true, trust me I know the difference.. I have been with the company over 20 years and the shit I have seen and been through is ridiculous.. And even the things I am going through now, 10 years ago I wanted to be in Management so I went through all the steps and when I actually saw what it took to be a manager I backed out.. So I also have first hand sight of what they do.. I have kept in touch with all the people I have started with over the years an they work in other parts of the Country , so they have been telling me what has been happening to them and the people they have been working with and so on..

Its your right to believe what I post, but I started this blog because I know I am not alone on what Fedex had been doing with me.. Do not get me wrong when I started with Fedex I loved the job, I enjoyed going to work and had the Fedex pride.. But when I hit my 15 years everything just changed I could not even take care of my customers anymore with out having to answer a ton of questions..

We do not have a Union so we do not have anyone to stick up for us, yea we have Human Resources but they are more for the company than for us.. I have copies of all my battles with Memphis I just can not post them right now because I really do not want them to know who I am yet.. Because of the retaliation I would face , hey I still need a job to pay the bills.. But it does not mean I have to take the Company’s shit and have them treat me than less of a person..

Me and thousands of other Fedex employees have built that company, we run around in the Rain, Sleet and Snow. We go into the Bad Areas to Deliver and Pick up packages and not to mention run the risk of having bad accidents.. We have the bulls eye on our backs..and correct the company and management fuck ups

And they sit collect the bonus checks and bark out orders and get to have lives outside the company and take care of the employee favorites.. While others like me get fucked !

I don’t know if I can change anything for the better, but I will let it be known on the good people who work hard get treated.. And the Lazy ass employees who do not even deserve a job get taken care of .. I don’t even know on how some of the couriers I work with still have a fucking job its comical.. They fuck with me but the courier that refused to deliver a medical package because she had a fucking hair appointment is beyond me

Later everybody and thank you agian

For looking at a Teamsters website off the clock ! I received an E-Mail the other day and had some friends in that station because I called them to verify the story..

That a Fedex CTV driver was suspended because he was off the clock and surfing the Internet and came across the Teamsters website when a Manager walked up behind him to ask what he was doing.. The driver replied waiting to punch in, then the manager noticed what he was doing and said that he could not do that ..

That matter was brought up to the Senior Manager where he suspended the driver for Two Days !

Gee for a company that says they are not worried about the Teamsters, they sure as hell punish you for being curious

This is part of an E-Mail that was sent to me, another victim of thinning the herd ! and all this poor guy is guilty of is TRYING TO DO HIS JOB THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE

” Hi,

I just found your website/blog. I was terminated last July  8th 2008. My
manager failed to have the vehicle I was using (new ford econoline)  checked
for the speedometer being off. I was suspended on January 8th for having two
speeding tickets within 5 days of each other he told me I was not working
fast enough wanted to know how fast I am driving because the time between
stops averaged out to around 50 to 55 miles per hour with the time it should
take me to drop my package get up to speed turns and all and the area I am
driving in I should average about 60 to 62 miles per hour. Well I was
driving 55 to 60 mph so I bumped it up to 65. Big mistake the tires on the
van were a size to big and the speedometer was off by 3 mph at 65 I was
doing around 71 can you say speeding ticket? Over corporate speed limit? Yup
both times and I was suspended, but here is the kicker he took the van in
and had it repaired while I was suspended. Tires replaced and the
speedometer gear replaced.”
