    About every 3rd or 4th package I get from Fedex, they deliver it to a Walgreens about a mile from my house and I have to pick it up there. That’s with zero attempts to deliver it to my house first. I live in a suburb with some of the mildest weather in the whole country. WTH?? And they’ve been doing this since before the cov. Why the fuck do I gotta go pick up something that I paid good money to have delivered to me? The last one was a guitar worth a thousand dollars and required a direct signature for delivery. I had to wait 20 minutes for the kid at Walgreens to find it in the back and bring it up to me, and wasn’t even asked to sign for it.

    Yes Fed X is a joke. I hate ordering anything online that comes delivered by Fed X total nightmare and the excuses they give you is total BS. Example There was no one home to sign for it lol. I was home all frigging day waiting for this parcel.Tracking is also a nightmare looks like the parcel is going around in circles. Just venting.

    FedEx is by far the worst shipper in my area. Amazon, UPS and USPS are all very reliable. I've had an item 'On FedEx vehicle for delivery' since April 1st. Needless to say, they consider the package lost.

    In my experience Fedex is the worst delivery company. Had them drive by my house and stop more than once but never get out to actually unload the 55" TV. Guess the drivers are on GPS for routes and have to look like they are attempting delivery. Had to tell them to hold it at a Fedex store for me to pickup after over two weeks of this.

    UPS > USPS > Fedex

    The problem is that they have been around so long and always had such a reputation for being the most efficient delivery company. Those days are gone. Amazon here in Canada use Canada Post for most deliveries except for larger ones which are delivered by Purolator.

    nothing wrong with the work effort of younger people. you are just old and bitter.

    would you bust your ass for shit pay that is intentionally designed so that you receive no benefits? you boomers were able to provide for a family with a blue collar job like that 40 years ago, thanks for fucking everything up for the future generations.

    the same thing happened to me. the package came to my sorting hub before delivery then made a trip to NY and is finally getting delivered today. Started on 4/15 almost here. Not the first time but it happens.

    You have no fucking idea what you are talking about. Millennial logic is astounding. Grow up and take some responsibility for your situation in life. We figured it out and now it's your turn.

    I agree that large corporations calling employees " independent contractors " so they don't have to pay benefits and overtime is terrible. I don't think boomers are responsible for that.

    Yeah…blame everyone else for your failures. I operate one of the largest plants in the US and have trained more people than this old guy can remember, just try to get a youngster to do any dirty work, or get off their phone.

    I busted my ass for crap (as you say) pay, showed up on time, followed direction, etc. I’m in the top tier of my field, make good dough with another promotion coming shortly.

    PS, my first real job consisted of changing oil in frying machines 8 hours a day, it was dirty, nasty and gross. We were required to do 5-7 machines a day, I did 7-9, 6 months later I received an offer to work in their refrigeration department.

    Opportunities are what YOU make of them, don’t be lazy all your life, lol….

    PSS, FedEx sucks : )

    lol what? Would I bust my ass for shit pay? No, i simply wouldn't take the job. If someone agrees to work a specific job at mutually agreed upon wages then they should work and attempt to give maximum effort. Also, why are you blaming boomers and being upset about your dollars purchasing power getting weaker and weaker every year by design? Your anger seems misguided... Sincerely, a gen Z 24 year old.

    IDK what it is about millennials but they seem to be so whiney and blame everyone for their shitty life situations but themselves. It's like they totally lack personal responsibility. I say this as a Gen Z 24 year old lmao
