[QUOTE="UPS_RH, post: 1510102, member: 53018"] Despite my screen name I am a FEDEX FREIGHT city driver. This past Dec. me and a few others guys on the extra board did runs for ground. We would pick up our tractors at freight and drive to ground. We would get a dispatch paperwork from road dispatch sending us to ground. At ground we would get the run paperwork. We would hook the ground trailers, complete the run and return to our home terminal. I did this 8 or 10 times. We were paid by freight at the same rate we normally make. The paychecks looked no different. The only difference was we would have to call central dispatch to report our movements as the handhelds would not work properly. We have done this the last two years now. So what you have heard is correct, a freight driver can run for ground and not be running for a "contractor'. [/QUOTE]
