Default Fed ex playing games with the rdwy/yellow customers

fed ex sales reps telling rdwy/yellow customers that where going out of business sending faxes and letters telling them to get there freight routed to them before it's to late. It's time to take the gloves off with these non-union carries and go back to the way the 50's 60's where and get the baseball bats out. tired of playing games with these boys.

Didn't another company pull that crap on Consolidated Freightways and get the crap sued out of them? Weren't laws put in place to prevent such slanderous remarks?

I can remember when we went on strike and Overnite tried to take all of our business. It hurt them for many years because they couldn't handle the freight volume.

Now, they are the 'union' Hope 'they' don't have to strike someday! YRC may have to help them with some of their freight...right now this isn't the case. Ask Yellow (IND). Saw UPS Freight at the terminal a week and a half ago, I was told, don't worry about it, they are union.

I heard the same thing here in the city of salt. Rumor was they were agressively trying to lure drivers away from other companies.
