FedEx Freight Diary (ala Russian Rabbit)

The best were the 3k skids of tile on a liftgate too short and rated for 2250 pounds.

 

It's coming to FXF as well, just a matter of time. They are currently testing it in 19 markets or something like that. Sounds like city driver problems.

 

This last week was a good week, albeit a long one.

Upside on this week comes in a couple forms:

1. My year anniversary was this week, so my top out rate is finally here. Although, I'm not sure if it takes effect this week or the following because of how the company uses Sunday to update information within the HR infrastructure.
2. Logged into my 401k account to see that the company match portion is now 100% vested with the passing of my anniversary date already

 

Looks like my "in" for extra Saturday/Sunday runs has dried up. Have a physical/drug/road test with a regional carrier to pick up runs on Sat/Sun at my leisure tomorrow. 53' dry van runs to ME or NJ from what I understand.

Doesn't pay near the same coin as FX, but it will add some wiggle room during the slow season if FX sits me home during the week. So far they have been responsive to all my questions and seem to be cool with my being upfront about using the gig to supplement my income. All I need to do is complete 2 runs a month to stay on their driver roster. Hopefully, this is where the money spent on my TWIC card last year comes in handy.

 

Gtg according to the policy book. PT only, not a LTL carrier, vendor, supplier etc.
