[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5529457, member: 24302"] No, I'm not defending FedEx, I'm being honest. Of course things are done differently these days. That's why airlines came under the RLA. And I was here in 2010 saying we need a union and as I recall it was Left Wingers taking money from Fred who betrayed us. I'm not going to lie or spin because it's something I want. I'm asking you a serious question. How does FedEx having Ground delivering Express packages endanger the RLA status of Express? If Express employees are doing the pickups then what's the issue? Are you under the impression that FedEx is pulling the wool over regulators' eyes, getting away with something illegal? Fred has had the upper hand with unions since at least 2010. How's that going to change? You were right, they're going to do everything possible to maximize profit by having Ground deliver Express freight. You were saying that at least 13 years ago. Did Fred snap his fingers and it happened right away? They had to build out infrastructure to make it happen. That's where all our future raises went to. That's why our benefits were stripped. They want to get super rich and if they have to run over employees to do it they're willing. I'm not an apologist for them and I'm not going to lie for you either. Stop giving people false hope by making them think they're eventually going to get a union in because FedEx has gone too far. As soon as Congress voted against the Express Employees Relief Act it was over. The Teamsters certainly thought so. [/QUOTE]
