[QUOTE="iowa boy, post: 506717, member: 13555"] FedEx all the way, I sincerely applaud the passion you have for your husbands employer, as there are many spouses out there that don't take the time to get involved like you do. I not being sarcastic when i say that, im sincerely glad you believe in something that strongly. But what I don't understand is how FedEx is "standing up" to the unions by threatening to take their business overseas? The impression I get (mind you, just an impression), is that Fred is trying to blackmail the government and trying to make the government stand up to the unions involved instead of trying to do this on his own. If Fred, as you said, is not anti-union, then why is FedEx so afraid of the Teamsters? Why not invite the Teamsters into FedEx and let the employees decide? I'm not talking just the drivers and handlers, but every one at FedEx, including your hubby. Then if the employees decide that they don't want to unionize, then Fred has the paperwork necessary to tell the Teamsters to go to hell, correct? I'm honestly not trying to start a war with you, im just trying to understand some of Freds logic in this situation. [/QUOTE]
