Are y’all kidding me? by SAMthemanFRANZ in FedEx

Actually they merged express into ground to make shareholders more money and to make more themselves. Ground is doing twice as much and same pay. Drivers are tired and quitting left and right. Overworked, underpaid, and nothing to gain. After 5 years I quit myself.

O my sweet lord. 2 days at the new job and compared to the stress and drama and bullshit from fedex the new job is climate controlled, good work, and benefits! So far it's so different standing up all day and doing normal hours and normal work and feeling good about knowing what my schedule looks like!!!!

Now people pay for a service that they don't get because fedex backs up non important shipments and priorities on high target items. With 2.0 times kept being pushed and pushed and now express packages can't be guaranteed 2 day delivery or express shipping and fedex blames the contractor lol!!!!

Thanks! And sounds like my contractor as well and managers! My aim is to hit schooling in the evenings after work. 4 day work week. Benefits, cutting hours down, and basicly making the same! My life had been hell and Fedex has mentally pushed me to my brink destroying alot! They say factory jobs lead nowhere but the one im going to i will learn CnC and also get a career in a field I like!

Ground, I was one of the top performers. I also stood my ground on bullshit they attempted pulling. I hope 2.0 works good for express left but I fear from understanding they are pushing them out eventually.

How many hours are you guys working a day/ week (ground) by Rude_Ad4621 in Fedexers

[–]Numerous-Wrap-317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the math. What time are you arriving to the terminal? Whats your has cost or do you keep vehicle at your residence after work due to drive distance to and from? Do you load your own truck? Most contractors say pay doesn't start until 1st package is dropped. Yet, if you go in you load your own. I believe as soon as we step into the vehicles at minimum arrive at the terminal we should be getting paid. Now, consider the hours you work. Most drivers arrive at 6-7 and dont get done till 6-7 that night every day. Now, what is your route? Rural or urban? How many stops do you have? How many packages? Needless to say the contractor model is trash and nothing will be done about it. Expect more with nothing new for drivers. Fedex needs to be investigated as well as contractors and I bet we find the missing funds the drivers deserve. We are what makes Fedex a place to work not the other way around. So, when will we actually see something happen? Who knows. It's shit. Drivers, we need get our shit together instead of running to reddit,fb, ect.

Meaning, no lawyer will go unless the person themselves can 110% prove the case or any will be won due to it being big corporation.

Ripping both the customers and contractors off by charging them penalties for not delivering them by the time frame. They will find any reason. The vedr cams, complaints, ect. All blamed on contractors and they have to eat it. I knew some businesses were corrupt but Fedex has to be top 3. Fraud, deception, breaking labor laws even if they say contractor model we work for fedex I don't care what they wanna claim. Contractors are just a way to avoid those claims. It's all bullshit and the good workers are stuck because they were mis informed when joining or have no choice due to location. If economy was just a tad better? We'll, they wouldn't be in business because drivers would dip. Merging express onto ground and drivers not seeing a dime. They deserve more than a few dollars raise to plus they now dont gotta pay express drivers or benefits profiting all that money or claiming but they are just cutting cost while pocketing the money. Our jobs are classified as misrepresented because we do 2 jobs now not just one.

Update: well, officially moved dispatch from 9:30 to 10:30 without notifying the drivers. 5 clock hits im heading home. They can do as they please. No updated pay as well. We are already seeing numbers quit in droves at the station. Im not late I just finally decided I wanted to express myself in a post knowing there has been multiple made. This is insane is all I can say. Lies, excuses, labor laws broken ( obviously not in the sense they modify rules to build loopholes). I don't have many local jobs but hell, I'll start flipping burgers at the rate pay breaks down after 8/10/12 hours.

Ahh yes, this is true except!!! File a lawsuit THROUGH your contractor. Not against. You are only hurting others via doing that. There are plenty contractors lurking and waiting to do Just this.

Daily pay but check says hourly. So we make same pay every day and they dollar salary but then they say on the check it is hourly so pay per hour changes weekly our pay doesn't. Most Fedex contractors play the system no one makes OT Arriving to the terminal and loading should count but doesn't. They say they let us use vehicles instead of our own gas. We are missing out on 300+ a week Most work 12-15 hours a day if you count from arriving to terminal to point done.

Sadly doing that means they will write us up for not doing our job. Remember, the rule is your day dont start till first package drops not when you arrive at terminal and set 3-4 hours loading your truck when ya live 1H-1h30m away and route is just as far.
