You still know very little. I sold out with a profit of over a 1/4 million dollars. I don't need to work but I'm still young. So what if I like what I do. I don't own it. I'm not getting scammed and I'm too young to retire. I could run my bosses' business or yours for that matter. You are arrogant and should humble yourself.
1/4 of a million...in 5 years that likely 3/4 of a million.
You're a bit hard to follow, is it a scam or no? The whole operation is a scam and drivers get the worst of it, so that's why you sold out and became a driver? Your best option in life was to take what you consider the worst position in an organization? You really put in 13 hr days 51 weeks a year because you just love delivering boxes since you don't need money? I should humble myself to your wisdom so someday I can get a sweet deal like you have going? I'll take my 2 hr days for substantially more income, thanks.
So why doesn't ground try to move to unionize??
Is that a real question? The drivers all work for different small companies.
Right. Unionize bbsam inc. and you've got...well, nothing.
I sold my last three routes for 250000.00 I sold my other 5 routes earlier. I had to move to the East Coast for family reasons. I'm not interested in a flame war with you people. I don't care what you think. I went from absentee contractor who doesn't care about his business, according to FedEx, to ISP poster boy talking to FedEx lawyers about how they should precede after getting their asses handed to them in the first CA lawsuit. I was a contractor ambassador to help bring the CA contractors on board with the new agreement. I have nothing to prove to you people and will not post on this again. Good luck. If you don't know it's a scam then are in denial. That being said, you can make money and not work if you have good drivers. The drivers make your business, not you and you will succeed or fail because of them. This goes back to my original point about how drivers aren't fairly compensated. Enough said. Been there, done that.
You are arguing something that nobody is denying. Drivers are not fairly compensated.
According to FedEx management it's once per day and double on Wednesdays for you guys.....
If you loading for your loaders then your contractor is failing. My home guys come in at 8:00 and my ground guys come in at 8:30. We dispatch around 9:00-9:15. All my guys average 40-45 hours a week with lunch excluded. I can't pay like express and UPS so I make sure that I get everyone home by 5-5:30.
Don't you have pickups? No Kinkos with their 6 pm pickup? The earliest the guys with Kinkos can get back to the building is 6:30-6:45.
