[QUOTE="FedExer267, post: 806234, member: 18716"] So I talked to a driver today who had heard the samething as Brown287. I listened to what he had to say however I have a hard time believing that FedEx would even be entertaining this idea. I mean look at everything they did to keep Express under the RLA. The one thing that does make sense is FedEx fully believes as ISP rolls out drivers will unionize against their Contractor because the average Contractor has no want or desire to pay his drivers more. They see the IBT playing a big part in this and eventually the Contractors will go broke paying a decent wage with all the bells and whistles that goes with being a employee. He said that FedEx's only recourse will be to step in and buyout Contractors and basically have a union run shop. They are running out of options the ISP is the last ditch effort they have to keep from paying all the costs of running us as employees. So apparently FedEx is planning for the inevitable. To add to this apparently there already are some Ground terminals that have signed thier union cards, so however this plays out it will be intresting to see. [/QUOTE]
