[QUOTE="Livin the Dream?, post: 532702, member: 21891"] Hoax - I appreciate that. I think. I wanted to say this as well - to anyone who bases their beliefs on what defines an independent contractor vs. an employee on information obtained solely from the posts here, union propaganda, and newspaper reports, is simply misinformed. I'd go so far as to say COMPLETELY misinformed. It is just a touch more involved than being "forced" to wear a uniform, and being "forced" to actually deliver FedEx packages. Before you argue, familiarize yourself with the true, FULL, IN CONTEXT definition of what an independent contractor is. There is no question that FedEx ground workers are clearly ICs. And a serious, non-rhetorical question - has anyone here (other than the obvious "we must unionize FedEx NOW because they are CHEATING" crowd) ever met a FedEx employee that wanted to be able to join a union? SPECIFICALLY want to join a union? I NEVER have. [/QUOTE]
