#FedEx delivery routes

[fresnel149]

I feel like USPS may be highly dependent on the competence at various local levels, from final delivery to district level, because I very rarely have any issues with them either besides their tracking being absolute dogshit about half the time, but at the same time I've got friends around the country who talk mad shit about USPS not delivering shit right constantly.

Un(?)fortunately, almost everything I buy these days seems to get shipped to me either via USPS or Amazon, so I don't get enough experience with UPS or FedEx to have a worthwhile opinion, maybe 5-6 packages a year each.

Back on December 18 I ordered a thing from Italy

Now, on January 2, it's still in Italy

I think they might be walking it out of the country

Sorry it's taken so long to respond to some messages but I wanted to post this info about mail, books and sending money as I get asked about it alot.

Because the SAMs are still in place, Dzho can only send and receive mail (letters, cards) from immediate family.  If you want to send him books, here is the mailing info and instructions/rules for doing so:

All books must be brand new, soft cover ONLY (hard cover will cause the delivery to be delayed as the prison removes the hard cover for security reasons) and be mailed direct from Amazon.com  As Amazon also sells new & used books from other sellers you need to make sure that any book you want to send is NOT coming from one of these many outside third party sellers but directly from Amazon themselves.  None of the books plots can be violent or overly sexual (no nudity)…basically just common sense stuff when it comes to topics. Absolutely no spiral-bound books will get in so don’t send those.

With SAMs in place if too many books are received in a short period (I think 10 per month was the limit when he was still in Devens) they may be sent back or “donated” (as they put it) to the other inmates/library. If they are “donated” due to the limit being reached, you won’t be advised that the book never made it to Dzho as Amazon only sends delivery confirmations.

Everything must be sent via postal mail, so make sure your package will not be sent via UPS, FedEx, DHL or some other carrier. POSTAL MAIL ONLY.  Amazon will automatically send via USPS since it’s going to a post office box and not a physical address. If you use a vendor other than Amazon make sure you validate that the book will be sent via postal service.

If you are avidly anti-Amazon.com, you can use Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, or even your local “mom and pop��� bookstore provided they will mail it directly to the prison for you. If you choose to go the local bookstore route make sure they use a “professional” mailing label and not a handwritten one -  it will be rejected. 

I don't believe any type of packing slip or gift receipt is passed along to Dzhokhar with the books received to avoid any messages getting through so it is unlikely he will know who has sent him what.

For those asking about putting money on Dzhos commissary account, please know that his family does this regularly.  There is also a multi million dollar judgement against him from a lawsuit by the victims so if his balance gets over a certain amount, the BOP seizes the funds to apply towards the (basically bottomless) restitution fund.  If you still want to send funds, there are three ways to send money. Western Union, Money Gram or by postal mail.

Instructions are here: http://www.bop.gov/inmates/communications.jsp#mg 

If you go the postal mail route, you have to send a money order (nothing else - only a money order) to a different address as the Federal BOP handles money in 1 central location vs each individual prison.  The money order should be sent to:

Federal Bureau of Prisons

Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev #95079-038

Post Office Box 474701

Des Moines, Iowa 50947-0001

They'll deposit into his account from there. 

Hope this is helpful to all those who have asked 🙂 Let me know if there are any other questions

FedEx Delivery Manager has already come in clutch because I got notified a package was en route before Sulayman himself told me. And this is a bit petty, but I never actually confirmed I was available to receive it tomorrow morning. I am and it's actually better for me than Tuesday or Wednesday would have been, but like...

At any rate, here's hoping the nightmare is over.

This is Ella’s chair. It’s by the front window. Makes it easier for her to “waive” at delivery drivers, all of whom quickly skedaddle after dropping a package on the front step. I know drivers are just eager to finish the routes. But I like to think they leave quickly, out of courtesy, so Ella and the other two dogs stop barking.

Today, after a FedEx driver left, it got as quiet as San Francisco sport bars were late last night. That’s when Sulley hopped up, onto what little cushion space remained on that chair. Ella didn’t mind. It warmed my heart.

Today I’m watching Vengeance. It had been in my queue for a short time. It’s by B.J. Novak. He’s a writer from NYC, in Texas making a podcast. I stopped halfway through to make lunch and start this post so I remember. So far I really like the movie.

Novak’s character visits Marfa, TX. I was curious about houses for sale there and scoured Zillow. I would do poorly as a real estate appraiser out there in the southwest corner of Texas.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A Black former delivery driver in Mississippi who says two white men shot into his work van and then pursued him in a high-speed chase last year has filed a new lawsuit against the men and his former employer, FedEx.

This is the second civil suit on behalf of D'Monterrio Gibson, and it seeks at least $5 million. The two men were tried for attempted murder and other charges but a judge declared a mistrial this summer.

Gibson was not wounded during the encounter on Jan. 24, 2022, in Brookhaven, about an hour’s drive south of Jackson. FedEx made him return to work on the same route, and that caused him to have “depression, stress, anxiety, loss of sleep, and emotional pain and suffering,” according to the lawsuit. It was filed by attorney Carlos Moore on Nov. 20 in state court.

FedEx spokesperson Austin Kemker said in a statement Wednesday to The Associated Press: “Our top priority is always the safety and well-being of our employees. FedEx denies the allegations and will vigorously defend the lawsuit.”

In August, a federal judge dismissed a separate $5 million lawsuit Moore filed on behalf of Gibson against FedEx, the city of Brookhaven, the police chief and the two men: Brandon Case and his father Gregory Case.

“The Cases’ alleged conduct is deplorable," U.S. District Judge Daniel Jordan wrote. "But Gibson fails to state a viable claim against FedEx for which the Court would have original jurisdiction.”

Brandon Case and Gregory Case are charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy and shooting into the vehicle driven by Gibson, which did not have a FedEx logo.

In August, state Circuit Judge David Strong cited police errors as he declared a mistrial in the criminal case of the father and son after days of jury selection and testimony. A detective testified about failing to give prosecutors and defense attorneys a copy of a videotaped police interview with Gibson.

Prosecutors said they intend to set a new date for the criminal trial, but court records show that has not been done. The two men remain out on bond.

Days after the mistrial, FedEx fired Gibson because he did not accept a part-time, non-courier job that the company offered him, Moore said. Gibson said he had been in therapy and on worker’s compensation leave, at about one-third of his pay, since shortly after the attack.

Gibson was making FedEx deliveries in a van with the Hertz rental car company logo on three sides. After Gibson left a package at a home on a dead-end public road, Gregory Case used a pickup truck to try to block the van and Brandon Case came outside with a gun, District Attorney Dee Bates said.

As Gibson drove the van around the pickup truck, shots were fired, with three rounds hitting the van and some of the packages inside, Bates said.

A lawyer for Gregory Case, the father, told jurors that his client saw a van outside his mother-in-law’s unoccupied home and went to check what was happening. Gregory Case wanted to ask the van driver what was going on, but the driver did not stop, attorney Terrell Stubbs said.

The sun had already gone down. “It was completely dark, completely dark, and somebody was in the wrong place,” Stubbs said. “It wasn’t my client.”

[reasoningdaily]

Mistrial declared in FedEx driver shooting Mistrial declared in case of 2 White men charged with attempted shooting of Black FedEx driver 00:21

A FedEx delivery driver who said two White men shot at and chased him in Mississippi in 2022 has now been fired from his job, he and his attorney said Monday.

"I honestly feel disrespected," the former driver, D'Monterrio Gibson, 25, told The Associated Press shortly after he received an email from FedEx about his termination.

Meredith Miller, manager of global network communications for FedEx, confirmed Monday that "Mr. Gibson is no longer employed at FedEx," but did not respond to other questions from AP.

Carlos Moore, an attorney who has represented Gibson in a civil lawsuit, provided AP with a copy of an email Gibson received from FedEx on Monday. It said Gibson's employment was terminated July 26, and the company attempted to deliver a letter and documents to him about the termination July 31.

FedEx fired Gibson because he did not accept a part-time, non-courier job that the company offered in mid-July, Moore said, adding that he did not know whether the company gave Gibson a deadline to accept.

"They can't tell me when I should be ready to come back," Gibson said.

Worker's comp, therapy, trouble sleeping

Gibson said he has been on worker's compensation leave, at about one-third of his pay, since shortly after he reported the attack to police in Brookhaven, Mississippi, on the night it allegedly happened, Jan. 24, 2022.

Gibson was not injured in the shooting or chase, but said Monday that he has been in therapy to deal with anxiety because of it. He said he still has trouble sleeping.

Brandon Case and his father, Gregory Case, are charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy and shooting into the vehicle driven by Gibson. Prosecutors said they intend to schedule a new trial for the two men, who remain out on bond. A court official said the judge's docket is full through December.

Moore said Gibson had done nothing wrong before two White men tried to stop him, with one of the men holding a gun.

White father and son charged for allegedly chasing and shooting at Black FedEx driver

"He was simply Black while working," Moore said during a news conference in 2022. Gibson had said he was told by his superiors to run the same route the day after the chase, CBS affiliate WJTV reported.

"The following day, we had to go file a police report, and as soon as I was done filing a police report, they put me back on the same route. I did that for like a day or two until I started having real bad anxiety attacks, and I just couldn't do it anymore. I asked them for some time off, which I do have, but it's unpaid," said Gibson at the time.

In a statement earlier this year, FedEx said: "FedEx takes situations of this nature very seriously, and we are shocked by this criminal act against our team member. ... The safety of our team members is our top priority, and we remain focused on his wellbeing. We will continue to support Mr. Gibson as we cooperate with investigating authorities."

Gibson reported that the encounter happened as he was making FedEx deliveries in a van with the Hertz logo on three sides. After he dropped off a package at a home on a dead-end public road, Gregory Case, then 58, used a pickup truck to try to block the van from leaving, and his son Brandon Case, 35 at the time, came outside with a gun, District Attorney Dee Bates told jurors last week.

As Gibson drove the van around the pickup truck, shots were fired, with three rounds hitting the delivery van and some of the packages inside, Bates said.

Gregory Case saw a rental van with a Florida license plate outside his mother-in-law's unoccupied home after dark, defense attorney Terrell Stubbs told jurors. The elder Case was just going to ask the van driver what was going on, but the driver did not stop, Stubbs said.

Grand Jury: Brookhaven Police "complacent" 

On August 10, a federal judge dismissed Gibson's federal lawsuit seeking $5 million from FedEx, writing that the lawsuit failed to prove the company discriminated against him because of his race. That litigation also named the city of Brookhaven, the police chief and the Cases. Moore said he plans to file a new civil suit in state court, seeking $10 million.

A grand jury issued a report last month saying that Brookhaven Police Department officers "poorly investigate their cases." The grand jury, made up of local residents, considered more than 60 criminal cases, and wrote that the department is "complacent," "does not complete investigations in a timely manner," shows a "lack of professionalism" and "has a habit of witness blaming."

Mail carriers have to service your route daily. Any person they deliver to knows roughly when they’ll be back tomorrow. Also USPS has local offices in reasonable proximity to customers with direct supervisors in it, who can field a complaint and chew out the carrier about it. So beyond any altruism, carriers try to provide decent service to avoid awkward interactions/getting yelled at.

UPS also have somewhat set routes, but it’s variable day to day because they don’t have mail going to every address. Hit or miss how often they see customers repeatedly, but I doubt the career drivers are drop kicking parcels to the door step. Also their contract has insane timeframe standards, so they’re probably rushing the signature notice so they don’t get docked for delays elsewhere.

I don’t know much about FedEx except that they’re not unionized, and probably get treated like shit by their bosses while being underpaid to make insane deadlines.

I briefly worked as an amazon delivery driver when I really needed a paycheck. Possibly the worst I was ever treated by an employer. Insane employee turnover. Not surprised they could care less about your package.

FedEx: shits on my box, stomps on my box, kicks it, dumps gasoline on it, throws one of my chickens into the back of the van UPS: whispers at my front door “is anyone home” as quietly as possible before leaving a “we missed you!” note, tries to gaslight me into thinking my address doesn’t exist USPS: sets my package down gently where it’s not visible from the road, knocks on the door and kisses me directly on the mouth

Choosing between FedEx and a freight forwarder depends on your shipping needs, specifically factors like shipment size, speed, complexity, and destination.

Find which is better fedex or freight forwarders ? FedEx is often ideal for smaller, time-sensitive shipments. It provides reliable tracking, faster delivery for parcels and documents, and convenient options for businesses and individuals. FedEx excels with domestic or small international shipments where speed and direct delivery are priorities. However, FedEx’s services can be limited for very large, specialized, or multi-modal shipments that require complex logistics.

Freight Forwarders are a better choice for larger shipments, particularly when handling complex logistics for international shipping. Freight forwarders coordinate with carriers across various modes (air, sea, road, or rail) and handle documentation, customs clearance, and warehousing. They can also negotiate rates with multiple carriers, often resulting in lower costs for bulk or oversized shipments. This makes them suitable for businesses moving high-volume or specialized cargo, as well as for shipments that require multiple carriers or routes.

In summary:

Use FedEx for smaller, quicker, direct shipments where simplicity and speed are key.

Use a freight forwarder for larger, complex shipments, especially internationally, where a tailored, cost-effective solution is essential.

Imma send Jahar a book at the beginning of September. Do we know how many books/subscriptions he currently gets ? I just don’t want my book to be intercepted 🥲 I’m a fist time sender 📚 thanks for all the valuable info 🙏🏻

Just ban addresses that do this from delivery routes, how is this fair to these workers

Everyones happy to talk about an order of being until its some assholes precious attack dog vs a fedex guy

[stevishabitat]

Not sure about other places, but in my area, most package delivery takes place during business hours, so the likelihood of there being anyone home at all on the street or apartment building is very low. The only people likely to be at home during the day are night workers sleeping, folks home sick, possibly an elderly person, or a person on maternity leave. And expecting any of those folks to come to the door is thought to be inconsiderate.

You can go through blocks of houses or apartments between 8am and 3pm (when kids might be getting home) and there's no sign of life at all. And kids home alone are usually instructed not to answer the door...

Also, our courier companies (mostly UPS & FedEx) penalize drivers for taking too long on deliveries. They are timed by computer systems from the time they leave their truck until they return and they are timed between stops. If they take the time to find a neighbor or even ring the bell, they're getting penalized for it. This is why FedEx in particular is known for chucking packages from a distance. Gotta beat the clock or you're going to lose your route to someone who is faster.

Our postal system (USPS) may be slightly better and may actually place packages carefully. But they still aren't going to try to find a person to hand it to.

Couriers used to leave a pre-printed sticky note if they felt they were unable to deliver (pouring rain/snow and nowhere to put the package without it getting wet, or a series of thefts reported in your area so they've designated a pick-up location instead). These days though, they just select the notice in the tracking and you have to go online to find out if they're going to try again tomorrow or if you have to pick it up somewhere.

Covid precautions really put the nail in the coffin of direct hand-offs of packages, but it was already a fairly dead practice. There haven't been people at home during business hours for decades since having a stay-at-home parent or people retiring at age 60 stopped being a thing.

I know all my neighbors and we have really wonky numbering on our street so when packages get dropped at the wrong house we're all pretty good about getting it to whoever it belongs to. Kiddo often will recognize the porch in the tracking pic and go find a wayward package. If I get a package that belongs elsewhere I usually stick a note on it and have kiddo porch drop it at the correct address.

As far as thefts go... Yeah, it's a thing. Generally it's either 1. Someone who lives in the area and just grabs packages when they think it's convenient (often - but not exclusively - teens trying to get cool stuff or things they can easily sell for cash). Most apartment package thefts fall into this category because it's easier for someone who is supposed to be there to do the deed. 2. A more planned thing where people drive thru areas where they know no one is home during the day and they can hit multiple houses at once. These folks are usually looking to sell or pawn whatever they get. It may just be one person on their own, or it may be a group working together.

The only package I've had attempted to be stolen was a big bag of cat food that got dropped off during my evening shift and I hadn't had a chance to bring indoors. The guy abandoned it between my house and the house next door, so I think he was maybe looking for dog food and ditched it when he realized it was for cats.

After finding the bag between the houses, I watched the trail camera that we use for monitoring the feral cats to see what had happened. On one hand, I was glad he left it, because it was expensive food for my cat that has dietary restrictions - not the cheap stuff we get for the ferals. But I also felt bad that he was so desperate for dog food that he was snatching heavy bags off porches at 1am.

I feel like americans have a weird relationship with packages being delivered like over here if you don’t answer the door they hand over the package to your neighbor. And either they come by later to hand it over or you come to them for the package. And the mailpeople hand a note through the mail telling you where to pick it up. Anyways how are all your packages getting stolen why are they just being left on the porch

FedEx's Commitment to Excellence: The Purple Promise

Origins and Founder’s Story FedEx, short for Federal Express, was founded in 1971 by Frederick W. Smith, a Yale University graduate. The concept for FedEx came to Smith during a term paper he wrote at Yale. He outlined the need for a reliable overnight delivery service in the computer age, emphasizing the inefficiencies of existing cargo routes. Despite receiving a lackluster grade on his paper,…

How does FedEx handle peak holiday seasons?

Handling the peak holiday season is no small task. FedEx knows this well. They prepare months in advance. The holidays mean more packages. This puts a strain on any delivery service. But FedEx has a plan. They hire extra workers and increase their fleet. This helps them meet the holiday rush. They also optimize routes to save time. FedEx knows that timely delivery is key. People expect their gifts on time. That’s why they pull out all the stops during the holiday season.

One of the ways FedEx manages the holiday surge is by adding more planes and trucks. They increase their air and ground capacity. This means more packages move faster. It’s a smart way to handle the extra load. For example, a friend of mine shipped gifts last year through FedEx. They were worried about delays. But FedEx delivered on time, even during the holiday rush. This extra capacity makes a big difference. Customers can rely on FedEx to get their packages where they need to go, even under pressure.

FedEx also uses technology to its advantage. They have advanced tracking systems. This helps them manage the flow of packages. It also keeps customers informed. You can track your package every step of the way. This reduces anxiety during the busy holiday season. No one likes to wonder where their gifts are. FedEx’s technology ensures that both the company and customers know exactly what’s happening. It’s a win-win situation. Everyone stays in the loop, and packages arrive on time.

Another strategy FedEx uses is strategic staffing. They hire seasonal workers to handle the increased workload. These extra hands make a big difference. They work in sorting facilities, on delivery routes, and in customer service. For instance, during the last holiday season, FedEx hired thousands of extra workers. These seasonal employees help keep the system running smoothly. It’s a crucial part of their holiday plan. Without this additional workforce, delays would be inevitable. But with the extra help, FedEx manages to keep up with demand.

FedEx also collaborates with retailers during the holiday season. They work closely with stores to ensure that products are ready for shipment. This partnership helps streamline the process. It also means that packages are picked up and delivered faster. For example, many retailers use FedEx for their online orders. During the holidays, this relationship becomes even more important. By working together, FedEx and retailers can handle the holiday rush more efficiently. It’s a team effort that benefits everyone involved.

Customer communication is another key element. FedEx keeps customers informed throughout the delivery process. They send out notifications and updates. This way, customers know when to expect their packages. For example, if there’s a delay due to weather, FedEx lets you know. This transparency is vital during the holidays. People want to know that their gifts will arrive on time. FedEx’s communication helps reduce the stress that often comes with holiday shipping. It’s all about keeping customers happy and informed.

In conclusion, FedEx handles the peak holiday season with careful planning and execution. They increase their capacity, hire extra workers, and use technology to stay ahead. By collaborating with retailers and keeping customers informed, they ensure that packages are delivered on time. The holiday season is challenging, but FedEx’s strategies make it manageable. Their commitment to reliable service shines through, even during the busiest time of the year. So, if you’re shipping gifts this holiday season, you can trust FedEx to get them there on time.
