That's why every package breaks when it's delivered by FedEx

[taminaion]

No wonder any package either never arrives or is destroyed beyond recognition

“As soon as you get the job done you can go back to your family “ could have been said so wrong, it could have been said like a hostage situation 😂

It isn't a trick, it is an incentive. My job pays me for 8 hours regardless of the time I work. If I finish early, I go home early. If I rush through and mess up because I wanted to go home, I lose money off my monthly bonus.

That's not tricking them, that's incentivizing productivity over time spent. That's how it really should be. I also feel like it's a healthier mindset for the employees themselves

Out of the big Four, Fed Ex is the only one that consistently misses its delivery date by two or 3 days.

If all of this is true, why are my packages still 5 GODDAMN Days Late

[toriwastakenn]

I don't want to be a FedEx employee, I'm scared that my plane is gonna crash and I'm gonna go to a deserted island and paint a face on a ball and name it Wilson. Then four years later, somebody steals my gf when I come back.

[Przva]

That's not really a trick, that's just a logical compromise.

So that's why my packages look like they just went through an industrial grinder and fell into a lake

They doesn't trick employees.They fix their business

[ewill]

The real way they trick their employees is by telling them you get to leave when the trucks are empty, and then bringing in another. By saying you'd be lucky to work twelve hours a week. By saying they were never busy and often had nothing to do.

At the place I worked at, they didn't even give us schedules, just a "see you tomorrow". Don't show up? You get fired. Short staffed even past the facility's minimum crew requirement and still expected to move 15k packages a night. 10-12 hour shifts a night, 7 days a week, and no breaks. Try to take a quick sit, catch a breather after hauling your 9th 200lb mammoth box off the belt, the managers accost you before going back to their computers to play minesweeper.

That is how Fed-Ex tricks their employees.

Still not as bad as Amazon though...

Based on my experience with FedEx, those employees must really hate going home to their families. No exaggeration, literally 90% of my FedEx packages are a day late. Once in a while, even two days late.

Regardless of what he makes leaves with their employees, FedEx sucks.

Thats why my television broke when it was delivered 💀💀

Management: when your done with all the packages you can leave.

Employee: say no more! *yeets package*

[dutchik]

and then they gradually expect you to process more and more packages per shift

[keatonhenke]

I was a fedex package handler for years and I can confirm this. We worked the morning shift. The bosses were great and worked with us a lot but the work was grueling. It doesn't matter how high the pay is. The job sucks. It does and you can't argue with me.

I quit after a year and got a better paying job for less work.

That's why half the packages are destroyed by the time it arrives to you

[sareklee]

Basic incentives can have powerful results. The lack thereof is why so many of us feel like wage slaves; selling our souls for hours on a clock.
