Dear Mr. Fedex:

Dear Mr. Fedex:

I realize you have high standards for delivery of packages... through rain, shine... wait, that's Mr. UPS, isn't it?

So tell me then, what was your excuse for pulling onto the road so close to my car, necessitating that I had to swerve out of your way? And, what necessitated that you drive within 2 inches of my bumper? Didn't you ever hear of a SPEED LIMIT? And, last, did you think it was REALLY necessary to wrap around me and cut me off, nearly hitting my car?

I was about to forget about the whole incident, until I pulled up at my father's dialysis center, and lo and behold, there you are, double-parked, in front of the handicapped ramp that my father uses to get into the car.

So, as my frail, elderly father is attempting to navigate his walker around your truck, and my daughter is playing in the backseat in her carseat, I took the opportunity to REMIND you that there are FAMILIES on the road, and that you should be more careful.

Why can't you be a REAL man and apologize, instead of telling ME I was driving irresponsibly, and obviously talking on a cell phone or something. No, you dumbarse, I didn't have a phone in the car. But, if you think that driving under the speed limit, because you're being careful with a baby in the back, is considered "irresponsible driving", you need a reality check.

Let's just check with what Mr. Manager thinks, stupid little ugly fat Mr. Fedex.

Signed,
The mommy who wrote down your license plate number Chat Icon

Re: Dear Mr. Fedex:

Good for you! People need to realize that cars and trucks are dangerous if not driven properly, and they need to be held responsible for their driving patterns.

Hopefully it will get back to him through his manager, and he'll correct his ways a bit.

Re: Dear Mr. Fedex:

I really don't think I'm going to call and report this guy - we've done that before, and realized how much of an upheavel it is and really can ruin a person's life. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and hope that some of my words got through to his THICK THICK head. And, if I EVER see him driving like that again on my daily route to pick up my dad from dialysis, I will be making a call. Chat Icon

It did feel good to reprimand him. He reacted harshly, and defensively, but only because he knew he was in the wrong.

I see your point. Hopefully he did get the message and will be more careful (and not block the ramp.)
