That has to be close to 9 hours alone.

about 8 hrs at 65

So we're back to FedEx is dumb?
They could easily find another person with the same level of "education" who would be thrilled to do it for 1/3, or even 1/2 of that.

I should work for FedEx...

I considered looking into this

If I made 70-80K it would be life changing for me

instead I make a lot less & lose 45% of my paycheck each month to taxes & medical benefits

AT night I hate going to bed because I know I have to get up and come into this job in the morning. When I wake up in the morning all I want to do is call out. When I get here I have to constantly remind myself to keep it together and not to lose my shit so I don't get fired. Man, this really sucks.

If you get fired, you get unemp.

You should have taken that day off for that job interview. :poke:

Jesus... It's one of those things people get used to doing and no one wants to change it because CHANGE IS FUCKING DEVASTATING!

It's kind of like when a person has a computer that runs XP and has Office 2003 on it and you give them a new computer that has Win7/8 on it and comes with Office 2013. I've had several people have a meltdown and ask our guys to take it back because they couldn't work anymore. One woman started crying.

:roflmao:

That's just fucked up.

You work a lot. I can see if you are an hourly employee and then roll over into OT and double time. FedEx needs shit moved, I can see where they may need extra drivers and it happening.

That's insane.
If he's not working close to 80 hours a week, FedEx is dumb.

A lot of guys don't take their mandatory down time. The fastest they deliver the load, the sooner they can get to the next load which means mo money $$.

fedex is a bit more strict on that. I wont let guys drive unless they have the required 10hrs off, or their 32 reset. Hell now a days with the new computer system, it wont even let the drivers start thier workday
