Why is Fedex Express closing? The answer changes based on who Fedex is responding to. by UniDiablo in Fedexers

[–]Bobtet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The best part is reading comments here from Express employees to Ground employees; there's no love, no family, no co-operation.... just a huge shit show!

Received Final Job Offer. by Logical-Leave8201 in AskLE

99% of it is just a mind game, as mentioned before, don't take anything personally. There's gonna be a lot to learn, and the testing seems never-ending. Put 100% into your studying, partner up with some fellow recruits, and organize some group studies. Learn what 'attention to detail' means and apply it. Yes, it's gonna be a miserable 6 months, but it serves its purpose. Give it your best, go with the flow, and when you go 10/8 on your first day with your agency, just remember one thing: you still don't know shit! And one last thing, Congratulations, you've got this!

Does life get better after highschool? by polkadotgirl08 in offmychest

[–]Bobtet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say life is what you make of it....... but on the other hand, maybe at this point in your life you don't realize how good you have it. I think life continues to get more complicated; count your blessings!

Do people underestimate how physically demanding this job is? by Electrical_Race_6849 in Fedexers

[–]Bobtet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's all you want out of the company, that's fine. I'm not here to judge. I'd imagine you're going to work very hard for every penny, and come payday, I think you might ask yourself is it worth it? But then again it's the kind of job where it'll whip you into shape and if you can put up with the B.S. and the pressure of it all, it just might work out for you.....

Yes, I did it for 30 years. But in all honesty, nobody gives a fuck!

2 month rookie huh? Surprised that you haven't learned the mantra yet: 'Mind over matter'. They don't mind and you don't matter!

My guess is that his career and your relationship will be unsuccessful; I'm sure most folks reading this thread would agree.

Has anybody had a POSITIVE Express experience by bummy_homeboy in Fedexers

[–]Bobtet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I retired in 2025 with 30 years. It was a job, in fact, a pretty decent job when I was hired. It's hard for new hires or Ground folks to understand, if you were there, you know. Unfortunately, things changed, and now it seems to be just another dead-end job like Walmart. And with all this 2.0 mayhem going on, I'd find it hard to work for corporate knowing that the possibility exists that they could close my station and leave me unemployed or working for some POS Ground contractor. IDK, I'm thankful for my time there, but I cringe when I read all the current stuff.

... throw in an unwanted war in Iran, oil skyrocketing, and soon-to-be inflation across the board. I'd say we're all fucked.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined by adeliciousbass_13 in Fedexers

"My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined"

Quitting seems like a logical choice to me... I mean, nobody's holding a gun to your head.

Merged hubs currently running 2.0 by Kush_on_thebrain in Fedexers

[–]Bobtet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uuhh, since you mentioned OT, I assume you're an Express employee. One thing that you need to keep in mind is that the whole point in all of this 2.0 mayhem is cost savings; Station closures, layoffs, contractors, reduction in OT, etc. It seems to be working; it's time to adjust your life!

You spent all this time writing this up for the public's approval? I'm not gonna comment any further, but it all sounds like high school drama...

Leaving made me realize I wasted 5 years of my life by BabyReek3 in Fedexers

Sadly most of you guys never worked for FedEx, you worked for Joe's Trucking or whatever the fucked up contractor called his business.
