[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5504179, member: 58386"] You could not have been more correct. It would take courage and sacrifice on the part of FDX couriers , ramp workers, line sorters ground contractors . contractor employed drivers in order to bring Fat Freddy's business and labor practices in line with the public image they promote. No better example of it than what we saw happen to Spencer Patton. He was betrayed by his own fellow contractors. As anybody who was following the matter knew that when push came to shove they would just leave him hanging out there. When newbie contractors came crying to me about the lies and distortions all I said to them was...."you wanted in here badly enough so just eat it and smile". And you should hear them crying now that contingency contracting gravy is in very short supply and will be gone entirely very soon along with drivers who left domiciled contractors to go chase that contingency cash to now find themselves out of a job altogether. Trucking has always been a shrewd if not out and out corrupt business. The best thing anybody can do for themselves is to get out of the industry altogether or to never get in it to begin with.
