What will happen to the express Drivers....

[Serf]

A few short months from now Fedex Ground will cease to exist. Therefore, for all intents and purposes that contract is null and void.

Express is being brought into Ground. Not the other way around. For all the what ifs, I still kinda think they are going to succeed in doing anything they want to do.

I'm really going to miss the sprinter vans. It doesn't seem like they are going to make as much sense anymore.

According to the press release Express and Ground will be absorbed into the new Federal Express Corporation.

There was nothing that said one way or the other. Hopefully things will be clearer soon

The Federal Express Corporation has been around forever. It's on my paycheck.

We were told ground would be taking P1s so won’t be much for express drivers to deliver. Seems like it’s time to bail if young enough to find something. Everyone saying it won’t happen in metro areas are mistaken. Why send two drivers to the same stop anywhere.

I promise ground won’t take p1

Hasn't FedEx copied UPS on various things over the years? More than likely they'll have Ground doing the bulk of the deliveries like UPS drivers but have a dedicated, lesser paid group doing priority air deliveries just like UPS. Except no one will be paid like UPS or have those benefits. Express couriers doing the air deliveries will be paid better than the same group at UPS but will likely work part-time hours. FedEx will be a duplicate of UPS without that messy union issue.

 

[It will be fine]

They are right now in Minnesota.

Or the pay, benefits and pension. Very messy.

It couldn’t happen in our area

They aren't delivering anything in Hawaii or Alaska.

I promise ground won’t take p1

They will be in my area starting May 30.

They’re not delivering anything in Germany either. WDFD

How you do promise that something won't happen that's already happening?

 

[59 Dano]

OK, and?

No one has said that it's going to be the same way in every area. The way it's implemented in one city may not be the way it's implemented in another.

Different areas I guess. You’re not getting on my route at 9 and getting 25 p 1 off by 1030

They already are that’s how fedex is reducing its workforce by giving it to ground. Anyone who thinks their area is safe and it won’t happen is just burying their head in the sand. It may take longer to happen where you are but it is coming.

 

[Gone fishin]

They will be in my area starting May 30.

Don’t forget the 2 hour sort to get your p1 on top of your p2

Hey, you're finally catching on! It rained at my house today! Didn't rain at my parents'!
