Ground taking over

[59 Dano]

Raj has used the analogy multiple times in interviews with the media to explain the changes in simple terms. Not in passing, but as an explanation of the "business innovation" that was taking place.

LOL, no.

 

[59 Dano]

Lol now it’s “nobody cares about Canada”.

We've got page after page after page after page of talk about what's been happening here for months, which you think means nothing because they're doing the opposite in another country.

 

[MrFedEx]

LOL, no.

Um. yes. He has used the example I mentioned. Numerous times. So, whatever.

Lay out the scenario where that makes sense.

If they wanted to compete with UPS.

 

[yadig]

If they wanted to compete with UPS.

They don’t want to compete on a level playing field. They want to use low wage, no benefit, employees to put them out of business.

From what we already know, that won't be competing. We don't even trust contractors bringing our freight to express.

Here’s something interesting. I talked to a sales rep I know a little bit. I asked how sales were going with the merger talk. He said several companies said there would be no future business with fedex if the merger went to ground in the area. He also said they were keeping an eye on markets where they did a lot of business.
That’s something Fedx may not of thought of.

The plot thickens

I mean to the majority of people there is no merger, tell a random person that fedex express isn't ground and they will be perplexed.

I don't see how they will be able to make everyone happy, merge here don't merge here.

It's like a big side show, see where we can get over on the customer and where we can't

At the expense of the box donkeys, lose some here hire some there

Scumbags really.

Sounds like he’s bad at sales.

LOL we both know you're lying. I'd ask you for links to just 4 such Raj interviews, but we both know you'd post 4 different links to the same one, if you could even find one.

So carry on, lying is your strong point.

You're not making any sense.

You were all over the board talking about how they were going to get rid of contractors instead of hourly employees -even after the process was already taking place- and now you expect anyone to believe that you have a contact who told you the nonsense above. LOL, ok man.

Nope , ground is bad at business

Deflect. Dodge. Protect. Defend. Deny.

Wow , so what’s the finished product look like. A handful of merging stations so far. I have no idea what’s going to happen like the rest of you. These are all opinions based on what each person thinks is right. Except what the sales guy said , that’s a fact chief

Sure it is, boss. They'll convert those Ground guys to Express employees any day now.

And Alex, the question is "What will MF do when asked to provide links?"

The given the performance history, the horror stories etc. surrounding Ground there are very well founded doubts regarding package security, accuracy and transit times.

This is turn makes it truly astounding that Prime Weasel would allow his legacy business upon which his entire company was founded to be dumped in the laps of an acquired OPCO bought with nothing but the issuance of additional shares expecting it to suddenly make an enormous leap forward in terms of it's performance.....It just doesn't make sense.

I know one thing , you have no clue what’s going to happen, the same as the rest of us. My opinion is it’s impossible for the company to be run under the contractors model. Just what my experience tells me
