Are those the two stations involved? Where are they? Express?
UTAH, north of Salt LakeAre those the two stations involved? Where are they? Express?
More plausible, sloppy delivery results cost them accounts.Sure seems like the Supply Chain division sucks at retaining major accounts.
The phone company. Never heard of it?What’s AT&T?
Any word on who's taking over the account?More plausible, sloppy delivery results cost them accounts.
FedEx plans to lay off 280 workers in Texas
FedEx Corp. has laid off more than 900 workers at facilities across the country since June. FedEx has laid off more than 900 workers at facilities across the country since May.www.freightwaves.com
That’s AT&T, fyi.
Wonder how and why we lost itAny word on who's taking over the account?
It couldn't be our commitment to excellent service for our customersWonder how and why we lost it
Probably be seeing a lot of thisIt couldn't be our commitment to excellent service for our customers
That's not exactly true. Express is still shipping out AT&T packages as we've been doing for many, many years now out of their normal location and have actually increased their volume by a small amount recently. You are thinking of a different building and operation, although it is next door to the one that is laying off. The actual FedEx Express employees handling the AT&T volume are unaffected.The phone company. Never heard of it?
That's the account lost. Used to be over half a million packages per week at that location alone.
Now, now. We can't be having that kind of rational independent thought.That's not exactly true. Express is still shipping out AT&T packages and have actually increased their volume by a small amount recently. You are thinking of a different building and operation. The actual FedEx Express employees handling the AT&T volume is unchanged.
That wouldn't be the case if the company was honest and forthcoming. At least the contractors in Canada know what's coming a year in advance.I don't like the uncertainty and uneasiness that this all brings to everyone but sometimes this all feels like a game of telephone. Someone gets wind of some news (without all the correct info/details) and then runs with it and spreads the news to others. By the time the 5th person hears it, it's a half-truth at best.
Did it ever go well?Does anyone see Peak going at all well?
I would say we didn't even have a peak last year, I suspect this year neither.Did it ever go well?
I do have to admit though. My last PEAK (2020) was the easiest.
What do you mean, worried? She's more than likely going to be out of a job. 95% chance.Talked to a CSA at the local FedEx station yesterday. She's pretty worried about potential layoffs. Asked me after I presented my retiree I.D. if I had heard about it. Has 5 more years before retiring. This is definitely something being heard about in small stations away from major metro areas judging by her concern.
I would say CSA are probably the safest in our building. Contractors don’t work the front desk. Ground doesn’t even have any CSA in our building.What do you mean, worried? She's more than likely going to be out of a job. 95% chance.
