[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 3879390, member: 60252"] Pretty much nothing, especially with the amount people have invested today. And by investment, I don't mean purchasing the 'business' alone. Owning 5 trucks that you likely owe more on than they're worth is a reason to behave like a good little 'contractor' even if you know better. Maybe if you have an attorney in the family who can set aside years of time to help????? And if you own the vehicles outright, or at least are even on them, you are tied because of the DMV and insurance laws. A lot of cities won't let you park 4-5 or more commercial vehicles in a residential area, so you'd need to rent somewhere to park them if you wanted or needed to walk away. And fedex seemed to have learned a few lessons about treating people a little better. There were hundreds of 'disgruntled' HD drivers just a few years after start-up, 'fed up you might say. Fedex was treating people like dirt, even people who were doing a great job. Those people, like me, came in with an expectation that fedex would adhere to the contract. At least today, people know better and have more history of fedex to look at. [/QUOTE]
