[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5686802, member: 58386"] Exactly. We've been through this before. As long as FDX DOT numbers are on the side of the truck and the only thing that goes in it is FDX bar coded freight being shipped by an FDX contracted account all command and control remains with FDX. That little Ground contractor only has control over relatively minor details and even those are subject to FDX oversight and control. IWBF has in the past laughed and ridiculed me because I and the other 2 Day 1 left rather than to put even more borrowed money at risk in order to scale up the the required minimum because no contract language existed that provided any protection of and for that additional at risk capital. Meaning that the fate of all that at risk money was going to be decided by somebody else who doesn't have a nickel of his own money at risk. Thanks to depressed shipping rates, much more belligerent corporate attitude pressured margins and a labor force that is becoming more expensive and harder to come by FDX route contracting has become a rather poor place to invest your money.
