[QUOTE="Ashcat12, post: 4748903, member: 87747"] Simple - probably can't walk out and pick up another job off the "JOB" tree. Believe it or not, simply walking away isn't financially an option. To think it is is silly. It's called being trapped with to much invested. You can take this anyway you want- If RPS would have started in Md, my entity number would have been 1. I would have been the first contractor over to Fedex.My number is 37. When bacha29says statement that your only independent when Fedex decides is non-argumentively the truth. Don't dilude yourself that your running "YOUR" company. Anyone want to swap horror stories? Let me just give you one. My driver is in a line of traffic and stopped Get rear-ended on pushed into car in front of him. Fedex comes backand says it was your driver's responsibility to maintain a certain distance and the cause was on him. WTF-You kidding me? Cost me 1600 in CCS money- Un fkin real. So, what is your recourse. NOTHING because they will retaliate. Point being, you don't control YOUR business. Anyway, I retired last year and handed over to my son. I now work at a golf course and Fedex. Geezus, retired and got two jobs!!!!!!!!!!! Son works me to death. On the other side-It has supplied me with a wonderful life and will for my son. It's the day-to-day operations BECAUSE of management (We got a junior manger who has a "I AM GOD" complex who is a major :censored:) that makes you wnna leave the whole scenario. But as to the point. Too much invested and limited options in todays economy. [/QUOTE]
