It would be to much of a cluster buck to combine all the op co's. you think things are screwed up now.

Fed Ex is downsizing express, a employee with benifts operation, and shifting it to ground, a contractor model( no insurance, no vacation, buy your own truck, fuel, uniforms and maintain them to FED EX's standards). We were worried when they bought Watkins because they had contractors. If Fed Ex goes with one division for all (letter, package, or pallet) it's gonna be the cash cow Ground division that gets it all.

But I do believe they will do the same thing with FXF, the 400-600 mile meet and turns will be handled with contractors (like ground), and the FXF road drivers will become shuttle drivers with dock work.

Thanks a bunch Captain Kirk. You know half of their operational ideas come from "what ifs" posted here.
Oh, BTW, Mr Sulu has something for you......................

PP, the national merge was far less of a fustercluck than the Yellow Roadway merge.

Didn't know National delivered packages and letters. This is what is being discussed. One driver handling it all. Think how much it would help the bottom line.....especially using 53 footers to deliver letters.

National was strictly freight.

Missed the subtle sarcasm?

I don't think nothing will happen to Freight might get some of Expresses freight, down size Express because Ground does a cheaper job doing the same thing but name change might be universal with all branches FedEx.com Maybe that's why they are pushing numbers on deliveries by 70% and 90% by 14:00?
