FedEx Express keeps on trucking amid flood waters.

There is a fine line between doing something ballsy or just plain stupid. you decide.

[/quote] all good until he rolls it over then it oh ::shit:: and was that stupid or what? you get paid by the hour wait a bit all will be fine water goes down in a bit. does this driver think hes the only guy out in the rainstorm being held up company will crusify him if he rolls it or trashes freight
 
Thanks for your post Jinx40.
Fedex may have been happy seeing their driver was not going to let anything keep him from moving the freight.
On the other hand the folks that had their vehicles dunked under the wake of water,could have not been happy in least.
 
Well he just went from company hero to being screwed. At Fed Ex they want you to do what ever it takes to get the freight off, but he got caught on tv now they are going to screw him good. Fed Ex hates bad public relations and this will screw their nice clean little image that they try so hard to protect, boy if you only knew what they are really like. :rant:
 
I wonder how much water got into the trailer... That might upset some customers shipping their stuff. Electronics, chemicals, documents, etc.

It's not a freight truck, it's express. That might have been the only road to the airport, you never know.
