They go to Vegas with the Teamsters and drink and gamble it all away?
He owns a lot of fed ex routes and pays his workers no benefits and peanuts for wages while exploitation of subcontractors is paramount?

He's right.. you know that was good. That took a turn you weren't expecting.
No. He's still working off old information. Contractors can't subcontract any more. I didn't because I have an accounting firm that makes everything simple.
Now if the union could stop fighting themselves, they could unionize Ground drivers insisting that they are not only employees for the contractor but for Fedex Ground as well. Co-employees as it were, the same way that McDonald's employees are co-employees of both McDonald's and the franchise owner.
Or you can continue to flail around and have your brotherly spats.
We sat down with one of your guys last Saturday who was working for someone like you. He makes 700 a week and works 11 to 12 hours a day. No benefits. He says owners must own a minimum of five routes now. That is the way mr smith is trying to get around the misclassification.

We may argue amongst ourselves but I'd dare anyone to try to stand against us!
It's bit more complicated than that but that is part of the structure .
Now, I've pointed out it's Achilles Healthcare.
You're welcome .
No thank you. I have a good job with health care that's better than 97% of America. I'm good.
Stand against you?!
I'm trying to help you increase your membership. Good Lord! Is that even something he union thinks about anymore or is it all mudslinging and spit balling?
You're good...not "We're good."
Not thinking about the retirees or those who come after you.
Nice.

Politics are in play right now. Like I say we may fight amongst ourselves but we're still in the best union their is. You're only seeing one side of it. If you're trying to help increase the membership spread the word to your co workers. Become part of something way bigger then you or I. Help organize FedEx!

The BFI joint employer NLRB decision. Brilliant.
Actually I was talking about you and your crap company plus employees who work for fed ex. You aren't smart enough to pick up on it though.
