[QUOTE="XEQaF, post: 3894773, member: 76117"] I'm trying to understand your view here. If many people are referring to integrity as being a factor, maybe there is an underlining truth to that? Just like saying contractors who continue to toe the line for FXG are weak? Could be truths to either one of those statements or not. You keep mentioning a failure on my end. There wasn't a failure my friend. A failure would be a contractor who couldn't maintain their DSAs properly etc. We boasted positive numbers. We were awarded Best In Business for our region. Our quarterly efficiencies were always one of the highest, lowest complaints, misdeliveries etc. All the metrics FXG measures contractors by we performed well. My cash flow was positive everyone got paid on time. The point to my leaving is I couldn't associate with a company I could no longer trust No I would never say I'm a victim in anyway here. I didn't say anything about the terms of the agreement. I knew it was one-sided, I was clear in mentioning the areas I didn't agree with. In all contracts there are areas parties don't agree upon, that's why there is a negotiation, with FXG contracts there is no negotiation. I still signed and worked with it year after year. Not the issue. As one of the competent contractors posted, he plays by their rules and takes their money. Some people don't get it and never will.[/QUOTE] Not the case. Contractors (I) provide a service. A service that uses my resources and expertise in the last mile delivery chain. A service that cost money to provide. A service that I get paid to do. Which is essentially the definition of Independent Contractor. Your "competent contractor" who plays by their rules and takes their money, sounds a lot like an employer-employee relationship now doesn't it, now isn't that the whole issue we are all trying to talk about here? Think about it. [/QUOTE]
