Had one of their trucks delivering next door yesterday. Driver had very loud music playing in the truck. Never seen this before. Oh well, hope he was at the right house.

Lots of delivery trucks with Fed Ex on them are contracted from private companies/individuals and a lot of the drivers they hire are not top quality. Amazoo is the same way. If they damage something on your property, good luck in getting them to fix it. They just pass the buck back and forth unless you hire Dewey Cheatham & Howe to sue them.

This driver was wearing a Fed ex uniform for what that's worth. Thanks

Very few actual deliveries by in house Fed Ex trucks and drivers around here. Drivers around here have FedEx on their clothes, and it is a "uniform", but they are driving for and employees of a contractor. I expect Fed Ex has then do that for the image. The trucks have Fed Ex in big lettering with the contract carrier info in much smaller plain lettering, easy to miss when passing by on the road, most think it is an actual Fed Ex truck.

Think a lot of that is the difference between a IRS - 1099 and a W2 of is it a employee or contractor .

Have to say home delivery is pretty sad including USPS. We get neighbors packages fairly often. Guess they can't find good help? Thanks
