[QUOTE="fdxsux, post: 2401317, member: 36946"] Sure UPS would switch all its drivers to contractors if they could, but they would continue to deliver their air freight on the same trucks as their ground freight because it's more efficient to do so. As far as overhead, you would reduce the number of stations, utilities, trucks, maintenance, etc. etc. Just because FedEx doesn't write the checks for the contractor's trucks, fuel, maintenance, employees, etc. doesn't mean they are not paying for them. FedEx has to pay the contractor enough to cover his expenses and make a profit. [/QUOTE]
