FedEx will be like UPS (air and ground packages on one vehicle), only it will be contractors doing it all like Amazon.  I hope you're right, but unfortunately think you'll be wrong in the end.  With the contactor model, FedEx doesn't have to pay any benefits like medical, 401K, pension, vacation, etc. and most importantly, doesn't have to worry about a union forming.</p></blockquote><p></p>
