65 mph here we come....

4 more days to the deadline. Its going to be interesting to see FedEx trucks trying to pass at 65.

 

sooooooooooooooo, I know this is a huge shocker, because we're just stupid truck drivers and not genius management

But, all the 600 mile runs (300 out, 300 back), barely make it back.
Lots of them are supposed to go another 30 minutes up the road (in no traffic conditions) to a pre-sort location and then come back.

guess what?
none of them made it. They all just dropped at the hub and said "out of hours, see ya"

I know, huge shocker right

and it was perfect weather yesterday and nothing beyond normal rush hour traffic.

 

Good. That's what you must do. Run 100% legal and watch them squirm when their "safety" plan starts to cost them as much as it cost us.

 

Speed Limit 70

FedEx do the best ya can

 

A lot of them have already dialed back, passed or backed off every FedEx I saw last night.

 

Or as we like to say where I'm from:
"Keep Hope Alive!!"lmao

 

Yeah there's no way of the routes our company has are going to complete at 65. Mr. E and I said that when we first heard about this. Run times haven't changed either yet.

 

They're gonna have to give us more time or something....we are running wild and they are giving us 21 hours to go 1446 miles...when am I supposed to use the restroom or take a 30? ‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️ Stupid.

 

So that explains, how I've been passing so many fedex in the past couple months. Guessing ups is on the same path?

 

They say it's for safety, but I feel safer when I can get out of a pack of cars/ trucks and be away from everyone tailgating because they can't pass...
