I just heard that a couple of suit were walking the dock in MIL and asked a driver who was working the dock why Freight is all messed up at Vitran? He asked who they were and they said they were from FedEx. If this turns out to be true it can only mean one thing. Because FedEx suits aren't going to be on a Vitran dock for no reason.
 
Wow. I can tell them what the problem is, no one gets in front and makes plans to follow through, instead, our dock is constant chaos, since it has always been that way, they know no other way to do things. Come over to my place, I'll give you the 30 minute tour and we will have a nice talk, and yes, I will point out the few good things we have here too so as not to be on sided

I'm calling BS on this one.
 
I would say it is the former FedEx employees who switched. Otherwise it is BS

Or, upper Vitran just wanting to stir things up? Vitran Safety was at MSP last month doing inspections of buildings and grounds
 
I call b.s. on that as well. I'm out of milwaukee (FEDEX) and If they were over there then they would have stopped in by us to say hi as well. I worked at Vitran in Milwaukee for a few years and yeah it was full then too. still miss that place it was fun!!!
 
I heard Vitrash I mean Vitran was willing to sell to anyone dumb enough to buy a flailing company that looses money every quarter and give them pennies on the dollar!! My neighbors kid has a lemonade stand that is posting a profit this quarter. More than I can say for Vitran. So I heard Vitran suits are coming to meet with him over the weekend to see about a merger!!
And you can take that to the bank.

They are looking to see, how they can get FedEx's dock workers BPH numbers up... thats why we no longer are going to deck, strap, and verify freight, it takes to long. Using the seatbelt and shutting down the forklift, setting the brake, and using the computer to load and unload a trailer are such waste of time. They are learning so much on how to move freight fast, correct or inact. FedEx has alot to learn. They don't like their employees to enjoy their job either - happiness/ having fun is no longer allowed. Enjoy what's to come, whether you like it or not.
 
I know one FE dock guy, and he says the attitudes are the same on his dock, BUT, if they damaged freight like our guys, they are dismissed NOW (but they can get others to apply for that opening, we can't)
