[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1068230, member: 24302"] Well, there will be less planes flying, fewer Express employees, either bigger delivery areas or no OT(or both). It will be impossible to eliminate Express completely because there's still a demand, albeit smaller demand, for overnight service, as well as international service. I don't think Ground as is will be shut down for a number of reasons. People here are clamoring for, and getting, a national healthcare system. Between the added costs of that as well as a weak economy I doubt the government will take away a low cost shipping alternative that businessmen are wanting. I doubt the businessmen care that people are being exploited to make FedEx more profitable because it makes them more profitable too. Any Don Quixote politician who tries to make a cause of the Ground' drivers' plight will probably be taken aside real quick and told to get with the program if he wants to stay in office. So brace yourself for less hrs and get your finances in order. If things changed because we don't like what they're doing then we'd all be getting UPS pay and benefits. No one really wants to hear this but it's the harsh reality. [/QUOTE]
