Numbers Are Out

It's taking a decent chunk of packages out of the air network, from the outbound ramp flight to the hub to the inbound ramp flight to the inbound ramp sort to the station sort.

Still can't get the freight on time. Lol

That's great if it eliminates a stop for either one of us. If we're both going to the same stop it's a waste of time and money.

Don’t be confusing dano with the fact’s!

I had a 4Z package on my truck yesterday (had 2 ASTRA labels with the same tracking number, one 4Z and one regular routing). When I went to deliver it to this house, the Ground driver had also been there with the other pieces of the shipment. Oh, and both of us were 2 days late on delivery that was supposed to stay in our ramp's area.

 

[Aquaman]

Charging Express rates for Ground deliveries? It's bait and Switch which is illegal. But some slimy bastards here will don't get that.

If only every single person that got a late 4Z ground delivery submitted a claim. How profitable is a package shipped for free?

 

[thedownhillEXPRESS]

That Z in the astra is making me wonder, did Russia sub-contract out to Fedex Ground in Ukraine invasion?

Nah. Just park the trucks.

Yep. That should get their attention faster than a class action being in the courts for years.

At this point I think stockholders are just stupid. Or not paying attention. Which in itself is stupid.

The stock price will eventually get their attention.

Still running heavier than pre-COVID levels.

LOL, you are lost.

Air this means it's guarantee that certain time or a certain day it does not guarantee how it's transported

They've been told that a million times, they don't care - they like the way it sounds.

A race to the bottom is very disappointing

Are you saying that volume is up at express?

 

[McFeely]

Are you saying that volume is up at express?

I’d say volume at my station is similar, just less people at the hubs, ramp, and station level to actual move it.

Your results may vary.

I guess as long as he’s going by his meaningless charts. He could give a rat’s ass about service. Just pump up the numbers so we look good on paper on Wall Street, rinse and repeat.

Analysists rankings of the stock run between "hold to "buy; with some reservation and some are lowering the target price.

Probably time to figure out how to make service with higher volume. If that means higher pay, do it. More trucks, do it. This is not a temporary increase in volume due to COVID. The staffing issues are not pandemic related. But we know this company runs on hopes and prayers that things return to “normal”.

 

[Fred's Myth]

If contractors have already signed off on the damn thing Fat Freddy will continue to stuff the fuel surcharges down his pocket.

If they're THAT stupid, then they don't deserve any sympathy.
