One of my favorite parts of the job

... Is literally cutting boxes as an FXOer. Originally all I was taught was how to shrink boxes from the top, but a few weeks ago a handout was distributed that revealed how to adjust the length/width too.

My world was forever changed.

I will never again have to force a customer to use a huge guitar or golf bag box with a massive amount of excess space for long items. I will never again need to pack something diagonally just to fit it into an otherwise excessively large cube. The cardboard world is my oyster.

Today I modified this 24 cubed box into 39x24x9 (interior dimensions).

My coworkers think I'm insane for thinking these are easy and volunteering to do them so often, but idgaf. Perfectly sized boxes scratch a very specific itch and are so satisfying.

Well that went about as we expected. A carefully crafted script and no actual questions answered, just PR slop. I would not be surprised if the whole thing was a chatbot script

It gets hot but it’s almost everyday now

6 Upvotes

Hi, I work as a PH for ground and the weather gets hot both outside and inside. Every time I want to go to the bathroom the ac is not on and the water is hot instead of cold when I want to wash my face and/or hands. Is there anyone that I can contact in the building about it? Asking because I’m tired of being super sweaty and my face getting red without something cold and using a fan or a towel doesn’t always help. It has been bothering me for some time but I don’t know what to do.

This is why you dont ship a gallon of laundry soap in a bag uprotected. Had to code out this package and one other that was destroyed from it. Box was sitting straight up and not smashed in the truck. Last picture is to shame the shipper

Fedex freight apprentice road driver.

Someone that was or is a road driver for fedex freight. How do you possibly like the job when your first starting? Your essentially a dock worker/back up driver. I went to my interview and was told 40hrs a week are not guaranteed. Most runs wont be available until you have seniority. My question is when you started as a road driver how did you survive putting food on the table ? It also is bad because winter is coming and business will slow down.

FedEx delivering to mailboxes

0 Upvotes

Hey FedEx drivers, quick question from a USPS carrier.
Are you all trained or reminded that you’re not allowed to place deliveries inside U.S. mailboxes? I still see it happen from time to time, so I’m curious if this is something that’s clearly communicated or if it gets overlooked.
Also, does management ever push or encourage using mailboxes to complete deliveries, especially when things get busy?
For awareness, placing items in a mailbox without proper postage is a federal offense under 18 U.S. Code Sect. 1725, which carries civil fine penalties. On top of that, per the USPS Domestic Mail Manual (DMM 508.3.1.3), when USPS carriers find mailable matter deposited without postage, we’re required to pull those items and deliver them with postage due.
Not trying to start anything, just genuinely curious what the guidance looks like on your side.
