[QUOTE="werenotthepostoffice, post: 1934502, member: 59155"] I have NO skin in this game,other than being a UPS employee.BUT,after doing some reading about Coyote and who they are and what they do,this is interesting. They are a third party "broker"that connects independent owner/operators with shippers. This company is in direct competition with,primarily,UPS Freight. And IBT that represents UPS employees. It should concern us. If UPS can use owner/operators to move all of their full loads from hub to hub it will eliminate thousands of jobs. Why stop at trailer loads? They could,in theory,put a system in place like FedEx Ground/Home delivery that allows independent contractors to run package routes. I'm not going to delve into the "conspiracy"stuff but UPS management would do anything to keep Wall Street happy. [/QUOTE]
