[QUOTE="montecarlo12, post: 81730, member: 4659"] worldwide, education time.....Back in "97" Fedex was strictly an Express carrier. Fedex Express employees more then double the pilots and has a much larger air fleet then UPS. Every one of these Fedex pilots are Unionized. I believe back in "97" about 90% of UPS volume was ground packages. FEDEX EXPRESS has never delivered a GROUND package to this day. If a customer used UPS exclusively for ground and air they had to wait the strike out with UPS. Fedex would not allow any UPS customers to open a new account as the strike was going on. Please explain to me how any Fedex express employee was a scab in (97) were not in a union, we didnt pick up or deliver 1 UPS package. What makes you feel I dont have the right to go to work because another company in the same industry was on strike? I hate to tell you Worldwide but it was UPS and not the union who caused the work stoppage. If UPS had negotiated in good faith in "97" that mess could have been avoided. Worldwide...correct me if im wrong, but it does say UPS on those brown trucks, and the pissed off customers were trying to ship there goods through the UPS system in (97). I always thought UPS was the package company, and the union was there to protect the employee from the employer. UPS (the company) has only themselves to blame for any lost business and the jump start for FEDEX [/QUOTE]
