[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 417313, member: 12508"] Sorry that you are **************, but the courts nailed FedEx to the wall because they were GUILTY. The original CA settlement was for $9.5 million, and was raised in Superior Court to $14 million because the judge saw overwhelming evidence of FedEx running a scam on it's "contractors". In other words, he didn't think the drivers were asking for enough money, so he hit FedEx with a larger judgement...is that clear enough for you? With this precedent (look it up,or ask Hubby) on the books, FedEx will undoubtedly continue to lose, and deservedly so. They are a dishonest rogue corporation that thinks it is above the law and can just make-up the rules as it goes along. Justice has been served, and more is on the way. FedEx only plays by the rules once it has been caught. If you actually worked there, you would see this same pattern repeated in all of their operating divisions. And no, Ground drivers were not told what they were getting into, as you state. FedEx had an agreement with them to be [I]Independent Contractors,[/I] which is legally a much lower standard than [I]Employee.[/I] Once contracted, FedEx breached said contract by treating them as employees. Have someone with an IQ of at least 40 *********** explain it to you. THEY WERE GUILTY AND NOW THEY PAY...understand? [/QUOTE]
