[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 1865163, member: 60252"] You don't seem to have any answers to my questions. The reason you can't use a motorcycle is because you are an employee, even as an ISP. And you could pay your drivers as independent contractors, or subcontractors, except fedex wants control. And control is what makes you an employee. If you hire a plumber, or carpenter for a one time job, and then try to tell him what vehicle to use, and who he can subcontract with, and how to pay subcontractors, you would be called nuts. Fedex is nuts for the same reasons, but even more so, since you are essential to there business, and drivers are a permanent part of their operation. According to law, those factors add up to employee status. If fedex had no control over who you hired, or what you drove, or who you sold your business to, you would likely be independent businesses. Can you imagine a plumbing busing owner being told he couldn't sell his business because one of his clients didn't like the buyer???? It is just crazy. [/QUOTE]
