Well bounty, im glad that youre fed up with the scam and getting out of this subcontracting game; its not for everyone.
Once u settled and got some of your ROI, theyll slap a non-disclosure Agreement so u can't spread the word any further.
Even a dumb driver like me can see that they want to get rid of single ownwer operators or small corps with less than 5 routes to avoid anymore lawsuits.
I follow fedex rules of p&d operations. All the subcontractor does is make sure my van is in safe operating mode. I can run the route myself without even meeting my middleman boss.... i only need to see him on fridays, when i get my cut of the fedex pie.
