I've seen this multiple times, including recently.

You sit and pray nothing goes wrong, because you're on your own.

And take issue with one point--its not a miscalculation.

FedEx has disintegrated. I used to use FedEx overnight letter service all the time at work to send documents, and it was relatively inexpensive (less than $10). Hadn’t used them for a while and then about four years ago (I’m retired now) had to overnight a document. I was floored by how absurdly expensive it is now, and by the fact that they no longer guarantee 10:00am delivery, or even anything close to it. The service had degraded terribly and the price was astronomical (I think it was around $80 or $90 if I remember correctly).

Every time I see a package coming from FedEx I cringe. 90% chance something will go wrong.

>> founder Fred Smith, a local legend, handed the reins to new CEO Raj Subramaniam...

The FedEx IT department is run by Indians. The president of FedEx is Rajesh “Raj” Subramaniam. They are all at war with the Americans in the company. That is why things are falling apart there.

Used FedEx since 1981. Told people if my child was sick, and I had to send medecine overnight, I would use FedEx, hands down. Now ? I see exactly what this article describes. Never saw a company go down hill, so far, so fast. Sad.

Because their CEO is a disgusting dalit pajeet, and that horrendous creature hired two more dalit pajeets for executive positions.

IMHO....The Income Tax data base has been accessed by predators...who have deliberately isolated industries, geographic regions of prosperity, specific professions, manufacturing meccas etc that previously made the USA a beacon in the world.

They have “taken them out” and stolen value and opportunity -not even to replace it-but to demonstrate to the world the “futility” of America as an ideal.

Wow, that paragraph you highlighted expresses exactly my experience in my industry. Hiring 60 inexpensive people that cannot do the job will never replace 2 expensive people that can.

FedEx chump delivered boxes to the Starbucks I was at today. Covered in tattoos and looks like a druggie. Threw two large boxes to the ground then kicked them to behind the counter. I would never use FedEx after seeing that.

What a terrible series of cynical, unAmerican decisions. Who is responsible for appointing Raj Subramaniam? Was he groomed as a successor or brought in by the Board of Directors?

Been going on for decades.

It doesn’t save anyone any money or get products developed on time.

Because what gets sent over doesnt work, so people here then have to fix it or dump it and make their own working version. So lots of time and money get wasted. Again, and again.

I remember when FedEx could deliver important documents right on time. I thought of them as the gold standard for the industry. Now they deliver our cat food . . . occasionally even on the day promised (though never the time frame).
