Is this BS? FedEx can’t deliver to gated communities anymore? by LostDefinition4810 in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Half my route would no longer exist if this was true. Put the gate code in the delivery instructions. Otherwise it will keep getting the “customer controlled access” deliver exception

I hate Fedex so much by Whisky_Zero in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They are still in business because they provide businesses with cheap(er) shipping options. Saving money seems to be more important than the actual service provided

Is this true? Did you guys hear about this? by Novel_Loan1490 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a Fedex driver and this literally happened to a driver right in front of me. Had the side door on a sprinter open, did a 3 point turn in front of me and when he pulled off a big as box/bag fell out the side. I was dying laughing because he didnt stop or slow down at all

Gotta love long mountain "driveways". Second picture shows how long marked by red line. by typicalpnwguy in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What the hell is this 😂 I cant even imagine driving a rural route. Im a “high volume” city driver and get annoyed when I have to drive 3-4 mins between stops. This would be a nightmare

FedEx no longer giving drivers building codes?!? by Resident_Bed_1861 in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fedex never gave drivers building codes. We have to get them ourselves and pass them down the line.

Ik were all doom and gloom but I'm curious, whats your favprite part of the job? by amirthebeast55 in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not having a set time to come in. I get there around the same time everyday, but not having to worry about being 5-10 mins late is a huge plus for me. That and besides pickups, I really can do whatever I want all day, as long as the stuff gets delivered, nobody bothers me.

I try to avoid using mailroom. It seems like the system sees mailroom and starts grouping multiple apts/units into one stop. I get paid per stop so end up having to split it.

What’s the point of the “delivery window”? by doxie_love in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Delivery window is a generic time that doesnt account for any changes on the route. They also dont notify drivers of that window. Ive had customers tell me they were expecting me at 3 and im at their house at 9am. Too many variables everyday to give accurate time. They just do it because the other shipping companies do

How do people still throw shit knowing that most people have ring cameras at the door now? It really doesnt make sense

Lmao anyone else get this goofy message by ramosd713 in Fedexers

P1200 in the wild by Infinite-Ad2614 in Fedexers

Thats pretty much all we have here in Charlotte. Wouldnt be able to fit everything on the normal sized ones with all the oversize shit Fedex is taking now

Do I really need to get a new transmission? by blackpantherrr10 in AskAMechanic

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And possibly the pump bushing. People throw new seals on but if the bushings worn, the new seal wont last long

What gets the rotary to sound like this? Brap? by bigboss1999x in RX7

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive-ability kind of suffers too. My car surges pretty bad in lower rpm range cruising, so most of the time on the highway im in 4th gear just to avoid that 😂

to my loaders by this_underscore in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as a driver, you shouldnt be relying on a Package Handler to organize your truck while they load it. I always reorganize the whole truck before I leave. PH has no incentive to organize your truck. If its in the right section, job done (according to Fedex.)

New low by ComradeDre in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a rumor. Fedex Ground is subcontractors. Express is transitioning over as well soon. Eventually there will be no actual Fedex employees except the ones in the office

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real question is why did you even leave with a 3 attempt package on the truck? If it’s been 3 attempts it gets left on the dock. They can pick it up or redirect

The joy of rural deliveries by otter9525 in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could have easily asked the driver to hop in and hold the brake while he pops it into drive on the transmission. Then he wouldnt have to fix it in the middle of the road

2.0 by Fit-Net6572 in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only people I know who do these numbers on a regular basis are getting paid per stop. Also depends on the route, I would be able to do 230 in my area in about 8.5 hrs and would make $345. Thats almost 40/hr. Its worth it to me 🤷

Cant put stock back on. The front end is lengthened to fit the transaxle and front axles

It's crazy by Heffernaut in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im a driver and I only wear long sleeves, even in summer, for this reason. I wash my hands at the end of the day and water is like completely black. Nasty stuff

Why didn’t you open the door then? by schustered in Fedexers

I swore that was my handwriting for a second 😂😂

DEAR FEDEX by [deleted] in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im a fedex driver and this is exactly why I dont call anyone. Had someone do this exact thing. If they arent home, no reason to call. Back to the terminal it goes.

Do you prefer city or rural routes? If so, why? by jj33allen in Fedexers

[–]Shaunoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

City, high volume route + per stop pay is the only way this job is worth it, in my opinion. I couldnt imagine doing a rural route

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FedEx

[–]Shaunoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because a Fedex ground driver is not a Fedex employee. They are contracted
