[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 801733, member: 22662"] Now where on God's green earth did it ever say in anything put out by Fedex or by anyone (other than your own hate-warped view of Fedex) claim that "contractors run the show"? Time for you to give me a break. You are putting up a straw-man arguement and it is very, very weak. When a trucker leases on to a company, does the "trucker" run the show? No. When a contractor works at a construction jobsite, does the contractor "run the show"? No. When the federal government hires groups like Blackwater, does that mean Blackwater "runs" American foreign policy? Of course not. In each case there are goals set by the principal and the agent is expected to meet those goals. How the goals are met becomes the perview of the contractor. In the past, Fedex has been shown to cross the line in that area. It sounds as though they still do at 267's terminal but as he himself has found out, until one pushes back, Fedex will do what they've always done. I never cared about drivers starting late because I could always design a route around a late starter by putting late pickups on that route. [/QUOTE]
