[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 4614951, member: 60252"] The union only has to organize a few drivers at a time under the contractor system. Each contractor has a workforce that could be a target. If it ever went to court, fedex might end up being considered as a co-employer. That MIGHT be enough to make fedex quit claiming that contractors are in a separate business, which would allow each ground terminal to organize. Fedex ONLY uses the 'contractor model' to make it much harder to fight them on ANY front. If they are challenged again and lose again under one 'contract.' they will settle, and change the contract a little, and any new fight would need to start over. I am sure Fred S had some kind of traumatic experience with someone in a union at some point, and his irrational hatred is the result. [/QUOTE]
