That’s a loss for Memphis.

RIP logistics king

 

[ckDOG]

Guy created an industry and changed the global economy because of it. Impressive.

 

[TheBannerM]

Vaxxed?

 

[HailStout]

Vaxxed?

It is definitely weird for someone 80 years old to die.

 

[L4Dawg]

Vaxxed?

An 80 year old died…man that is so unusual. Has to be some sort of conspiracy.

Hope they don't lose his body in Jackson

I hope this doesn't change anything for FedEx in Memphis. The city would have ZERO industry left if FedEx left.

 

[Maroon13]

On a lighter note, I wonder how much he left the UofMemphis? Maybe they can fill in the gapping hole they created in their prime seats at the Liberty bowl.

It’s been changing since he stepped aside. I don’t think the new guy is good for Memphis. He’s currently laying off a bunch of people due to losing business.

I eagerly cheer that city’s demise.

You seem like a reasonable person

Bravo, sir.

Go live there like I did for a couple of decades.

The company I order our cameras from for our Skycams ships them FedEx two day shipping. I think they've made the initial promised delivery date twice out of probably 12 orders. And one delivery I accused of them of routing my delivery through an active war zone judging from the condition of the box.

I’ve lived here more than 3. I understand there are bad things about Memphis. But why would you wish it to get worse as opposed to better?

Why would you cheer for a city’s demise?

 

[Colonel Kang]

I had no idea that NFL HC Arthur Smith was Fred’s son

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

I eagerly cheer that city’s demise.

Yeah that’ll show’em.**

 

[ckDOG]

I eagerly cheer that city’s demise.

I eagerly cheer your personal demise, AnonBunchonumbers.

A year or so ago, he gave the U. of Memphis NIL fund.....$20 Million. My guess is his estate will give them a whole lot more than that.

I think the micro machines guy is looking for work.

 

[Darryl Steight]

I guess everyone knows this, but Mississippi played a big part in Fred's success, with his right hand man and COO early in the expansion stages at FedEx, Jim Barksdale. That was before Barksdale did the whole Netscape thing.

I'm just asking questions.
