[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 553397, member: 927"] An there lies the issue with the FedEx position. They claim that they are being hobbled, when in fact they are using their status to hurt UPS. Why do they use their RLA status as a selling point to win UPS customers if its not an advantage for them? Why do they at contract time send letters to UPS customers offering to ensure capacity for them if they switch? Explain to me what a law enacted in the 1930's which was meant to address problems from the 1880's has to do with a truck driver delivering a package in 2009? The FedEx position makes no sense to me... Of course what they are doing is legal today, but the law is bad and outdated. They are in the same business as UPS, and should have the same labor laws. Its a nice spin to say that losing their advantage will "hobble" them. P-Man [/QUOTE]
