No the bottomline is there are seperate companies at Fedex to take advantage of the idiotic labor laws. UPS could have done this. I will say it again; IF the rules change Fedex will adapt. Most likely Fedex Ground and Express will merge with Fedex Ground contractors taking over delivery service. The net result will be a lot of Fedex Express employees hitting the street. But this is true to form because we all know the teamsters and their allies in washington don't care about american jobs they just care about union jobs.

The OP pic reminded me of a recent event in SA.
We had a 727 go down (maintenance) in Brazil and the freight went on a UPS 767.
BTW, thanks UPS.

Yeah, if I were forced to wear brown, I would too. And I don't care if it's free or not.

Hey sailor...I can see why somebody that idolizes a man with this snazzy of a uniform would feel the need to make those type of remarks.
