Linda Price+FollowDetroit’s FedEx hub just got a massive upgradeFedEx’s new $423 million facility at Detroit Metro Airport is a game-changer for local logistics and jobs. By consolidating three old buildings into one high-tech hub, FedEx has doubled its package sorting capacity—now handling up to 12,000 packages an hour. This means faster shipping, more reliable service, and a big boost for Detroit’s role in global trade. The project also brings hundreds of jobs and supports local businesses, while focusing on sustainability and future growth. How do you think this will impact Detroit’s economy and daily life? Let’s talk! #Business #Detroit #FedEx00Share
Adam Rich+FollowFedEx Is Demanding My 81-Year-Old Dad Pay $327 For Two Bolts My 81-year-old dad was just trying to fix my sister's lawnmower. He needed two very specific bolts so he ordered them online from the UK. After waiting a long time for the package to arrive, he got a surprise invoice from FedEx for about ten dollars. He went ahead and paid it even though the shipping was supposed to be free. Then today he got a fifteen-page past due notice from FedEx demanding he pay over $327. The document says his past due balance is $327 but also lists the total for the invoice as only ten dollars. It makes no sense. I can only guess that the online vendor owes FedEx this money and my dad got stuck with the bill. He's old school and has been trying to deal with this through snail mail which is not working. I am completely lost on how to deal with this. Any advice would be much appreciated. #FedEx #CustomerService #BillingIssues #ScamAlert #HelpNeeded #ElderlyStruggles #OnlineShopping 170386Share

Kristin Shaw+FollowWhy Your Packages Might Take Longer NowEver notice your packages are getting stuck in delivery limbo? FedEx is shutting down 100+ stations and merging its delivery routes to save money, but that means fewer stops and more reroutes for your stuff. So if your next online order takes a weird detour or shows up late, you’re not imagining things. The company says it’ll be more efficient, but for us, it might just mean more time hitting refresh on the tracking page. Heads up: price hikes could be next! #FedEx #DeliveryDrama #ShippingLife #Business #Industry70Share
Marisa Pope+FollowFedEx Stock: Bargain Bin or Hidden Gem?Heads up, deal hunters: FedEx shares are hanging out near their lowest price in years, but the company’s making moves to turn things around. They’re spinning off their freight business and focusing on faster package delivery, which means more savings and bigger profits down the road. If you’re into stocks that pay you back, FedEx’s dividend is steady and could get even juicier. It’s not all smooth sailing, but if you like buying low, this could be your coffee break tip! #FedEx #InvestingTips #StockMarket #Business #Market20Share
Nicholas Coleman+FollowWhy Planes Need Regular 'Health Checks'Imagine your car’s brakes failing because of an old hose and a missing part—now picture that at 30,000 feet! That’s what happened to a FedEx cargo plane last year. A worn-out hydraulic hose and a broken backup wire left the landing gear stuck, forcing a belly landing. The crew kept cool, but the real takeaway? Even big companies can miss routine checkups. Whether it’s your car or your gadgets, a little maintenance can save you from a crash landing of your own! #AviationSafety #LifeHacks #FedEx #Business81Share
Tristan Richards+FollowFedEx & Amazon: Back Together Again?Guess who's teaming up again? FedEx and Amazon just signed a new deal for delivering big packages to your doorstep. After a messy breakup in 2019, they're giving it another shot—because, apparently, money talks. This move means Amazon gets cheaper shipping, while FedEx gets a boost after a rough year. Meanwhile, UPS is cutting jobs and closing buildings as Amazon sends fewer packages their way. For us? Expect more delivery trucks in the neighborhood and maybe faster, cheaper shipping for those oversized Amazon buys. #FedEx #Amazon #DeliveryDrama #MoneyMoves #Ecommerce #Business30Share
Edward Wallace+FollowFired for AA Meetings? FedEx Drama ExplainedImagine leaving work a bit early for your weekly AA meeting—something your boss said was fine for years—then suddenly getting fired for it. That’s what happened to a FedEx worker in Pennsylvania, who now claims she was let go not just for her recovery routine, but also because of alleged bias against her as a white employee. The takeaway? Always get work arrangements in writing, especially if it’s about your health or recovery. HR drama can hit anyone, so cover your bases! #WorkplaceDrama #KnowYourRights #FedEx #LifeHacks #JobSecurity #Business76Share
Jennifer Reyes+FollowMemorial Day Mail & Store Shutdowns: Plan Ahead!Heads up: Memorial Day means a 24-hour pause for USPS and FedEx, so don’t expect mail or packages to move that day. Even Costco and some grocery stores are taking the day off. If you need to send something or shop, do it early! Pro tip: USPS online lets you order stamps and schedule pickups even when the post office is closed. Always double-check your favorite store’s holiday hours before heading out—some are open, but with shorter hours! #MemorialDay #LifeHacks #USPS #FedEx #HolidayHours #ShoppingTips #Business160Share
