[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1105534, member: 12508"] I don't hate the drivers, I hate the Ground scam. They are just doing a job, but it's a job Fred set-up to fully exploit the worker. As I have said many times before, the basic Ground model depends on ultra low-cost labor, which gives Smith a tremendous advantage in terms of cost-savings and ability to undercut UPS pricing. It makes me angry to see ISP's on here defending their scam, and saying that there's nothing wrong with a job that has low pay and no benefits. It's "wonderful" that drivers live in their parents basement or in some crummy apartment or worse. That's "capitalism" at work!! The problem is that all of the capital flows to the ISP and FedEx, not the hard-working driver. Ground drivers make the whole industry look bad, because Fred has lowered the professional bar that distinguishes between professional career drivers and the average Ground driver, who you might as well have plucked off the street in many cases.
