[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 555320, member: 22880"] This is the point exactly for Express employees. Ground is a separate operating company. As part of protecting our jobs, customers MUST be educated that they are indeed separate operating companies. Fred wants everyone to think it is all "FedEx", it isn't. I'm an Express employee, NOT a Ground helper. It is the customer confusion that Fred is counting on. He gets his cake and eats it too. If UPS divided up shipments based on the mode of movement from point A to B, and had separate operating companies delivering those pieces, with VASTLY different work rules and procedures, would you want to subsidize the operation that was competing with the company that was paying you? The money all comes out of the same pot at the top, but HOW that money is distributed is VASTLY different. I won't help Ground "helpers", since their existence is a direct threat to the employees of Express. I have no problem with UPS drivers, since we perform the same work, just have different employers (different pot of money at the top). Ground exists as a direct threat to Express employees, as bbsam as aptly posted. [/QUOTE]
