[QUOTE="Livin the Dream?, post: 533264, member: 21891"] Everything you said there, I completely, 100% agree with. I believe any employee of FedEx that wants to become union should have the opportunity. I could not agree more. I mean no disrespect whatsoever - but you appear to have swallowed the "Unionize FedEx" line propagated by UPS/Teamsters hook, line & sinker. I've NEVER MET a FedEx employee that wanted to become union. And the only people complaining about how FedEx compensates its' Independent contractors is..............UPS and the Teamsters. What is happening, you know it, I know it, hell, even 705RED knows it - UPS knows it cannot compete by adjusting employee compensation, thanks to the Union. So UPS wants to hobble its' competitors with the same inflexibility. This whole thing can be reduced to that - read it again - [U]UPS knows it cannot compete by adjusting employee compensation, thanks to the Union. So UPS wants to hobble its' competitors with the same inflexibility.[/U] That is it. That is the whole thing. That is the beginning, middle, end. For you, anyone, to sit there saying you are just looking out for my fellow man, just trying to make sure my competitor/driver buddies can pay the bills, they deserve benefits, blah blah, blah, you are simply full of excrement. Or you are unintelligent. Or you are just a sheep. Pick one. Because the IC model FedEx uses is valid. It is legal. And the people making the most noise to change it are NOT FedEx ICs, but UPS and the Teamsters. That fact alone should make you pause. [/QUOTE]
