FedEx Drivers:

I've always wanted to drive for this company but anything and everything I hear is BAD. I know this business can be filled with rumors and falsehoods. Anyone know if Fort Worth is worth looking at? Will I starve as a new guy? Thanks for any info.
 
Depends. Big locations are best to avoid. Seniority is DEEP!

Likely, you will be working nights, on a fork lift for, what could be 5+yrs.


Here at Shv, we are putting new hires right on the street. New hire rode with me for a few days 2 weeks ago, for training. A week later, they had him on a day schedule.

. Again, id avoid the big locations. 15years in is nothing.

Only 5 years? OMG that's some funny stuff. What do our 15 to 22 year drivers need to do to get off shuttles?

Run, Forrest, run!
 
So lets just say I don't mind working dock, would it be ok? Meaning, nowadays is freight picking up?

As a foodservice guy I don't know how freight levels are.

Would working dock in a large terminal be ok? What is so bad about working dock? Supervision? I feel that's what I would hate the most.
 
Ok I have an interview Monday... Despite what they may tell me in the interview, how realistic is 50 hours a week for a new city driver at a major terminal?

45 maybe, but I do not think you will avg 50 very often. Really depends if they are short handed or not.
