Hmm .. let's see .. nope, have my own house, mortgage etc .. am not in debt .. have 2 kids, as does my gf .. and guess what, not only am I able to pay bills, I also just got back from a 10 day vacation in Vegas .. imagine .. a lowly Ground driver with enough money to go to Vegas and STILL make his mortgage!? Wow!

Mortgage is debt..
Dont let Fred know that you make enough to eat! You are taking caviar out of his doggies dish! Poor Fido might have to go back to eating steak, because you make way too much

Correct you are .. debt free other than Mortgage which I've never been late on .. hard to imagine I can swing this with a lowly Ground salary!
Do you suggest that all debt is bad debt?

Did you buy your house before you were a Ground driver? I can't see anyone affording a home (except maybe a TuffShed or mobile home) on what a Ground driver makes.
Do you know what I love? You contractors talking about how you'll sell your rts eventually for much more than you paid for them. You might, but it all hinges on one thing. The ones that buy your rts for much more than you paid are expecting that FedEx will continue to increase the amount paid to the contractor. That's what will make their rts more valuable in the future. Only thing is FedEx is super stingy, they don't like to share. So the value of the rts won't keep going up and at some point someone will be left holding the bag. And it won't be FedEx.
I can show year after year after year when weekly settlements continued to increase in size over the previous year. So somebody like you can be skeptical, but I have the numbers to show otherwise.
Perhaps. But I also have a four year agreement that has increases in several different categories each year. So in essence, they have agreed to pay me more.

You can buy a decent home, fairly inexpensively in Maine.

And its contractors don't like to share with their drivers. So I guess Express and ground have that in common.
Why would you care? You and others here always want to talk about how crappy ground drivers are. And now you want me to pay them more? What's wrong with you?

Why do you care about us organizing? Don't say you don't because you wouldn't spend so much time on here if you didn't. The fact is what one opco does affects the other.
Stick around. Of my over 11000 posts, I doubt that even 500 have anything to do with organizing.
