[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 555231, member: 12508"] He's a multiple IC, and probably makes much more than the average UPS driver. This is how he does it. By paying his drivers peanuts, he's able to skim enough off the top of his operation to turn a decent profit. His drivers get no benefits, no pension, and probably no overtime either. It's an exploitative system, but it works because that's how FedEx designed it to work. As long as you can find drivers who will work for $500-$750 per week, their routes generate enough profit to make a good living for the multiple IC operator. If he suddenly had to pay a living wage, the house of cards would topple, and he'd be upside-down on his investment and out of business in a hurry. This is how FedEx operates, and it's shameful. I neither condone this system nor the IC's who subscribe to and profit from it. It's just wrong. [/QUOTE]
