FedEx freight hiring process, dock worker to driver?

I transferred from a part time dock worker at a small center to a apprentice spot at a hub. And it took 4-6 weeks cant remember exactly been about 4 years.

 

Unfortunately FedEx has zero problems dicking around with the hiring process. If they really need help bad it may speed up the process.

 

FedEx gets a bad rap, seemingly in every mishap and I don't think that's true. I think there are just so many FedEx trucks, bound to catch a few. For the most part, millions of packages get to where they need to be. If it's a linehaul, it's worth waiting for, P&D, not so much. You'll probably do dock work doing local P&D anyway. Whatever you do, don't bail on FedEx altogether, in the future, there will be like 4 freight outfits, and FedEx will be one of them. Hang in there.

 

What four do you think will take over everything?

 

Ugh, apparently you aren't familiar with sarcasm. I happen to love it. I said that, because in the future, I truly believe, you won't see dozens of trucking companies. They will either fold, or be taken over by the govt. and only certain companies will survive. Big companies. Brick and mortar stores will dry up, they are now, and EVERYTHING will be package delivery. Our "delivery system" for goods in this country is over 100 years old, and horribly out of date. We simply can't have unqualified drivers running into things with their measly 22 pallets of something,, and a "road train" of sorts, on their own roads to a central location, and smaller trucks take it to customers,,just like in the 30's, will be the next thing and FedEx will be one of those companies remaining,,,I bet.
