@FCwithme @fopminui @Morbidful You should probably tell her that in person.

@Yellow_Trucking When I was Dist Manager @DrPepperSnapple (87-93) they were the best long-haul LTL. Then CEO Bill Zollars used acquisitions to convince Wall Street it was growth stock; he overpaid & never consolidated operations. Today’s news is entirely his fault.

Local news in St. Louis is reporting on the signs outside our YELL terminal that indicate the company is ceasing operations. Operations personnel reporting for work on Sunday found doors locked and gates closed with chains.

We ask Broughton Capital's Donald Broughton if he was surprised about the broad restructuring at @FedEx

$FDX $UPS

[Donald Broughton @BroughtonDonald]

About to go on @CNBC to discuss what @FedEx announced at the Investor Meeting this morning. @MorganLBrennan

[Donald Broughton @BroughtonDonald]

At the Investor Meeting, the FedEx senior management team answers questions about their new “Drive” plan. In a world where most only give diversity lip service, there’s just one male Caucasian on the stage. #JustSaying #Diversity @FedEx

[Donald Broughton @BroughtonDonald]

@FedExPilots When the company you work for is announcing they are going to need fewer of you, it’s probably a great time to demand higher wages. #bandontitantic

[Donald Broughton @BroughtonDonald]

FDX’s CEO just ‘dropped the mike!’ “Operate independently and compete collectively” is history. Operations of Express, Ground, Services, and Freight will be integrated. Expected to produce cost reductions ($4 bill in FY 25, $6 billion by FY27). @FedEx

[Donald Broughton @BroughtonDonald]

Perhaps I should just stick to freight flows and transportation stocks.

Is this the year Kansas St wins it all?

[Lloyd Blankfein @lloydblankfein]

The battery just ran out on my HP12C. Never gave it much thought, but I’ve used this calculator for 40 years. Still functional, looks current. Bet not many other consumer electronic devices out today will have that kind of run!
