If it got to that point he might as well move to an all employee workforce. There is no chance in hell he going to give that kind of control to the contractor.I think if it was about to disrupt ops would be the only way.
Then show us the facts.The numbers are there for all to see. Of course if you don't want the facts...
go get them.Then show us the facts.
That's what I thought bro.go get them.
There wouldn't be anymore or any less control to the contractor, the only difference would be the # on vans. The operating agreement would still be the same.[/quote][quotewouldn'tsperhour, post: 1276652, member: 43825"]If it got to that point he might as well move to an all employee workforce.

If nothing would change then why is FedEx assigned the # and not the contractor? You guys are independent businesses, right?SPH what would change? We would still have to meet safety guidelines in order to dispatch with FedEx freight, I'm sure that would be kept in op agreement if ( doubt ) this ever happened.
Here is a little clue, but shhh, don't tell bbsam. You guys are really employees. Employees can't have dot # assigned to them. Your so called " independence" is only a facade.I can't answer your question any better than you can mine, but I do think that if DOT was gonna shut down grounds # some drastic changes would be made and fast. Most O/O do have own #'s, they are easy to get.
Ah SPH has humor, but my facade has been going on a long time.Here is a little clue, but shhh, don't tell bbsam. You guys are really employees. Employees can't have dot # assigned to them. Your so called " independence" is only a facade.
At least you know it's a facade.Ah SPH has humor, but my facade has been going on a long time.

Yes but even more profitable for FedEx. Which is exactly why you will never be truly independent with FedEx.Whatever you want to call it I call it profitable.
To be honest I'm as independent as I want to be, I need work everyday as do my drivers.Yes but even more profitable for FedEx. Which is exactly why you will never be truly independent with FedEx.
I couldn't agree more. Very well said.it's true....those were pretty heady days for us back at FEDERAL EXPRESS - back when any mention at all of the IBT would've drawn a condescending glare from virtually any employee.
Look at how far we've fallen now. Man, were we ever duped. I almost feel like we were the kids who got suckered in by the friendly neighborhood drug pusher. It was all so amazingly beautiful at first and we thought we had the world by the balls, but then eventually - little by little.......
VW employees take note - tomorrow may not be as sunny as today.
