[QUOTE="CJinx, post: 1732234, member: 37078"] No. An express driver with 30 days, 30 months, or 30 years of experience simply does not have the credentials to be commenting on the Ground business model or company/contractor business relationships. Pretend you're a reporter and you're covering a hurricane hitting Louisana; do you quote someone who was in Spokane at the time or New Orleans? If the story was about the business practices of Fedex Express and the abuse of it's employees, then MFE would have the credentials to comment. I just don't see this story happening; not because it is some huge conspiracy and Smith has virtually everyone in his back pocket, but because [I]it is not an original story[/I]. It is the same old song sung by anyone who felt that their paycheck didn't accurately reflect their workload. They only reason the media cared about the whole McDonalds / 15 bucks an hour fiasco is because those people were willing to walk out and lose their jobs without the protection of a union. MFE won't do that, so the media doesn't care about his story and neither do thousands of unemployed people who would gladly trade places with him. [/QUOTE]
