FedEx Home Delivery Contractors - A Girlfriend's View

My Boyfriend decided to run a FedEx Home Delivery Contractor Route. What started out as an interesting venture is fast becoming a lousy prospect. Thinking about becoming one? Here are some things, good and bad that he tells me that would make me wonder. Hate the service? Possibly it ISN'T the idiot drivers fault. ANY AND ALL COMMENTS ABOUT FED EX Home Delivery Services and Routes ARE MORE THAN WELCOME. Again, this blog expresses my opinions and the opinions of any commenter who posts here.

FED EX HOME DELIVERY SUCKS

Why I'm doing this......

My boyfriend doesn't know I'm posting this blog but I have yet to see any negative or postitive comments about this "business prospect" out there. Probably because the current contractors won't open their mouths and because the past contractors just don't want to think about the place.

This journal is about some of the the reality and contradictory aspects of what I see as a not entirely lucrative "business" proposition. Its from the eyes of someone who gets to take the brunt of his aggravation.

And believe me, if they could trace this back to him, I'm sure they'd make his life living hell. I just cannot wait until the contract expires and he tells them to kiss his ass, unless that day comes sooner..............

I have been a FedEx Home Delivery Contractor for 5 years
and I also was voted Contractor of the Year.

FedEx Home Delivery has been the worse mistake I have ever made. I have 2 routes and FedEx did not want we to
have a second route, only after a contractor bailed out
did Fedex say ok, and thats only because it was close
to Christmas time and they were in a bind.

I want to get out, but now FedEx has come up with some BS that says you can not sell 2 routes to another contractor in the same year, forceing me to stay in 1 more year. If you are thinking about being a contractor DON'T DO IT

Fed Ex Home Delivery is the most exploitative company. Abusive, unprofessional bosses, ridiculous contracotor costs, lousy investment to return ratio. Horrible job- horrible company. I hope there will be an expose on their treatment of workers which is abyssmal.

Let's all sue!!
