[QUOTE="RPSman, post: 3249347, member: 51437"] Well, you jerks are getting what you deserve. Your ill advised strike in 1997 over part timers not getting full time hours opened the door to all the mergers. Before we had Federal Express, Roadway Package System, Airborne Express, DHL, Emery & Purolator. Not to mention, TNT had limited USA operations, utilizing Eastern Connection parcel service for packages from Europe to the East Coast. When the dust settled, FedEX and Caliber Systems (RPS' parent company) merged, DHL bought Airborne Express (Baron von Klink did not know the difference between air and ground service) and somehow UPS got Emery, and Purolator retreated to Canada. We remember the DHL clowns and their yellow vans, Fed Ex Ground ISP contractors are hiring full time drivers that wouldn't have been hired at the old RPS as temp drivers. I tried this, was lied to it would be rural packages, I ended up running back and forth around an economically depressed farm town. Demand that this personal vehicle driver concept be written out of the contract. Or the end result is going to destroy the US economy. [/QUOTE]
