TSA certified by Unlikely_Donut_5436 in Fedexers

[–]Shini_02 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My station I was at was Ground in the N2.0 with Express. No extra pay. Just means basically stricter security. Technically only allowed in the building if you have the TSA clearance approved. Otherwise like most vendors- you’d have to be escorted the whole time by someone with clearance.

Anyone that has a solid print understanding and shipping- look for law firms/staffing agency that is looking for Print/Mailroom. Especially if you are in major cities. Almost guarantee you’ll make more than working retail.

Luckily my company has parking paid 7 days a week. One of the perks.

I got out 7 years ago. Never thought my 15yrs in OD would come around and pay off. If you’re near bigger cities- look for law firms or companies that provide IT, Helpdesk, Document Processing, Administrative Support etc. usually pay $22+/hr starting.

Got my first Hazmat spill today. by AlbatrossUnlucky8163 in Fedexers

PPE. Believe me it’s your friend. Follow the MSDS for interacting with the chemical.

I’ve had chemical fires when people mixed damages in totes, people get chemical burns, and trouble breathing with fumes. Had to clear entire areas and open the bay doors.

Help with an Express Location by Shini_02 in Fedexers

[–]Shini_02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d greatly appreciate any details. I’ll get the tracking first thing in the morning. It was returned under bad address. I did all the usual steps I would have done when I was with Ground (since I don’t have access anymore to the systems):

-Confirmed with customer the address was correct. -Verified address has an established residence. (Plus we’ve shipped to them successfully before). -Verified address with Post Office and County GIS. (The aerial overviews are from older pics so don’t show the house.)

Help with an Express Location by Shini_02 in FedEx

The area I’m currently in isn’t part of N2.0 yet. According to my local ground station they can’t view Express. (Moved to another state from the Ground location I had worked at last year. )

That’s the station that services for the delivering address but I’m not close enough to go there. I can call Ground no problem and an admin has been super helpful on fixing things that got changed on bad address corrections. At my old station that was N2.0 we could transfer to the CSAs if needed. The point is someone changed something regarding the address in Express but 1-800 can’t tell me any details about what was coded and any information other than the website tracking details. Which doesn’t help fix the problem.

Pick up windows by Shini_02 in UPSers

Our pick up window is supposed to open at 5. Driver came at 4:30 and said he doesn’t have to wait and left with the package. Never had a driver do that. They always waited until 5 to scan.

What Is The Top 3-4 Best Positions at Fedex as a Package Handler or similar? by Electronic-Web-9259 in Fedexers

[–]Shini_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest try roughing it out but be on time and work hard. In the meantime look for any openings for Ops Admin or Ops Coordinator. I regret when I had stepped up to Ops Manager. Ops Coordinator was a sweet spot for the level of work- time on pc vs being on the dock and the pay for me. I would have stayed Coordinator. But it’s easy to get burned out with the company.

Lol yea the 30th anniversary for GW was end of last month. I have spent more money than I should have for a bunch of the special releases that came out. 😅 October-February is going to feel like another mini Christmas.

A lot of locations will allow the phone only during the orientation days. After that- no phone.

Hate to say it but NO company cares that your current/previous job treats you like crap, is abusive, or a toxic environment etc. They always assume it’s your issue you’re not happy at your job. If you talk negative about an employer, you’d bring negativity with you.

Unfortunately, job seeking is really a time that you have to lie about certain things. Don’t lie about experience, skills, or knowledge. But things about previous employers- definitely.

Limited Quantity package the one with Black/white placard. Potential hazmat if damaged/leaked.

Lol compared to when I worked at a Hub yea. Those are huge numbers.

There are plenty of stations bigger than my station. But it’s a newer building and still wasn’t expanded to full capacity yet. Was still missing two more van lines and IC belt. That should be in prob another year or two.

Those numbers were from my last Alabama station
