Nope. I doubt another FedEx company under FedEx Corp would hire a fired FedEx Express employee!

Actually, FedEx Trade Networks (I believe) is a subsidiary of FedEx Express - so, they probably WOULD hire FedEx Express employees

Sleeping under a rock? Express is not the cash cow of the company anymore...in fact, we don't make half the revenue of ground. They were built on our backs, and now we are the "little brother."
