Talking FEDEX - SCORES AGAIN! Hahahahaha!

Y'know....working at FedEx as long as I have - almost 27 years - means I usually have contacts with a lot of our personnel out in the field. Here's a picture that was taken at our CGX station in Chicago earlier this week.

Wonder why the Brown Guys choose FedEx to deliver their sign? Could it be that perhaps they know something that you don't know? WE already know why they did.....

i'm sure the people making the sign chose FedEx. I wonder if UPS offered to ship it?

Just a thought. Good pic. You should send it to UPS.

Freddie, this is classic.

Kinda like The Commercial Appeal subscribing to The Jackson Sun, in part to see if we could deliver.

Thanks to you and Ron and of course all the others who gave me and mine time at the Fling to give rides and advice. I hope to be able one day to do the same for wannabe owners.

Excellent.

I like to use FedEx to send stuff to union offices--they really hate that.

Lightbulb Tire Shipping

FF,
I guess if FedEx is good enough for UPS to ship their sign, they probably are good enough for shipping my slicks. Now that's only if some guy in Memphis (I know) tells me the size and compound of his tires. so I don't make a big mistake.
Wheels are in hand now, and got them delivered for free. That deal is getting better and better.

Thumbs up Gottacha

FF,
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Just to rub a little salt.
No, not that either, we'll save that for the ribs in N.O.
I won't order tires until next week at the earliest, so don't worry.

Just take care of those twins.

This pic would have been so much more believable if shown in front of something that had Fed Ex on it. The wall or a fork lift or something. This pic could have been taken anywhere.

Not trying to ruffle feathers it is a cool pic allright.

FED-EX DELIVERED MY SLICKS ON TIME THIS PAST FRIDAY
YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE LOOK ON THE DRIVERS FACE WHEN I OPENED THE GARAGE TO SHOW HIM WHAT THEY WERE GOING ON.
WHAT MORE CAN I SAY
