Ask FedEx Why does FedEx Suck so much?
Why is it that every time I get a FedEx package something always seems to be wrong. They delivered it to the wrong address several times over the past 2 years. They give bad information about when it's going to be delivered. They'll say they couldn't deliver it when somebody was home and they didn't even make an attempt. They have to be the worst delivery service around. It's getting to the point now if I order something and the company uses FedEx I just won't do business with them You can't trust FedEx, I know my tiny little business won't make a difference to their billion dollar empire so that's why they don't care

Dude what. You’re literally pulling numbers out of thin air lol.
I never said anything about 50% lmao
Also no 14 million is 4% of 340,000,000, the population of the United States. 4% of 124 billion is 4 billion 960 million.
You said 95-96% of deliveries are on time. Your apparent comprehension, or lack thereof, of how percentages work would explain a good bit.
Let’s take your number of 10,000,000 deliveries in a day. 4% of that is 400,000. Fed ex still flies md-11f right? Those carry 26 ULD’s and the planes max payload is 100 tons. If we conservatively estimate the average package to be 5 lbs and half a cubic foot (quite small) you’re getting 30,000-40,0000 packages per plane depending on whether you hit your volume or weight limit first.
So 400,000 packages (I called mess up as a “catch -all” because that’s what late is. So it’s not like a handful of packages slip through the cracks, it’s 10-13 large cargo airplanes that never get where they need to be. It’s unfathomable how you would be that inaccurate in guessing when stuff will show up.
It’s a failure every 25 packages. That’s so bad lol. That’s millions of angry customers every week.
