[QUOTE="Hawk780, post: 138624, member: 7363"] This could be a very interesting time to be working for Big Brown. Think about all the costs associated with unionizing FredEx if it catches on. They are going to have to purchase all the trucks that were originally owned/operated/maintained by the "contractors". Not to mention the possibility of lawsuits for back wages and/or benefits. On top of that, UPS spends a significant amount of $$ strictly on labor relations (labor manager in all districts) and FredEx will have to put some kind of infrastructure in place to handle that. And they won't be able to undercut our sales force prices moving forward, which will mean winning back a decent chunk of the market share...just food for thought. Any other opinions??? -Hawk [/QUOTE]
