FedEx Freight | Why so slow?

Ground runs suck ball juice and if they try to force those runs on me , I'm going out for a couple weeks then! It's BS simply because they only give the Fedex freight guys the lamest runs they have left. GFY with that BS!

Why are you attacking me? I'm assuming you mean go f yourself? ?? If you don't want the work it is fine with me. ... but in the area I'm in I am not real happy to lose my run to freight. That sucks ball juice as you put it. The runs have changed this year. So before you tell me to go f myself see what is being offered.

I don't even know why I even post anything on here. ...some of you will bitch about anything. ....the title of the thread. ..why so slow? ??? All I was trying to say is some work is on the way.

I get my stats straight from the Bureau of Economic Analysis.....

http://bea.gov/

Over the 12-month period ending in August (the most recent federal data), employment in North Carolina rose by 2.6 percent, or the 10th-highest rate of job growth in the United States and about 25 percent faster than both the national and regional averages. In the Southeast, only Florida (No. 3 in the nation) and South Carolina (7th) are adding jobs at a higher rate.

Aw yes plenty more jobs working at fast food joints. You sound like an Obama child who doesn't see the bottom dropping out of the economy.

Where I'm at, NOBODY wants to run any of Ground's extra runs....maybe they can hire some temp drivers.

You'd be best served worrying about the temp drivers Freight is using, you know, "shiny wheels". I'm sure when you're replaced you'll be happy making $8 an hour.

swift transportation, Universal truckload services and Ryder are all reporting soft freight. The message board for Exxx Pee Oh is not saying anything about demand but that is because of all of the talk about being taken over. I thought that slow freight started with LTL and moved to truck load but in this economy nothing works like it used to.

He's credited with creating directly/indirectly over 67,000 jobs in the U.S. alone, now if we add the jobs created directly/indirectly worldwide, that number climbs even higher.....which validates my original statement!!
I could care less who makes his clothing line (almost all apparel is made overseas), however, I do enjoy playing some of his golf courses....they are some of the best in the world!!
