re: Ticked off at Fed Ex today

I work in the logistics industry and also deal with customs clearances. Our customers that use Fed Ex were still getting parcels last week (and yes ones routed through Memphis).
With weather events like this there can be 1-2 day delays. But judging by the # of days and the excuses listed I can tell you from experience they lost the parcel.
Fed Ex and the other parcel services lose parcels all the time. Usually they find it within the same day or 2-3 days later then you see the tracking moving again. If you follow up and complain or ask for a warehouse sweep it can sometimes speed up the finding by a day.
They almost NEVER want to admit they lost it which is when you start getting fed the BS reasons that keep changing. That is the red flag.
As I mentioned above, they usually do eventually find it so your parcel will make it at some point.

I'm a sort manager for Fed Ex Ground.
We have only had a few hubs nationally open. I had to cut down employees every day last week to an absurd degree because we had nothing coming in. Our yard was empty as hell it was crazy.
I know during morning sort Mon to Fri I only kept 40 on load and unload each, and they worked less than half a shift..we usually have around 130 on each for my sort.
So if a package is not there...its because it has been chaos trying to get things back up and running nationally. We can't control the snow homie. Not how this works.
