[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5558174, member: 58386"] Throwing out there all kinds of potential outcomes is pointless. Here are the facts: 1. If you are an employee of Fedex Express you will no longer have a job because you're employer has ceased operations. Whether you will be offered employment by the new Federal Express Corporation and the terms of employment remains to be seen. In the meantime proceed on the basis that you will either not be offered employment or employment under terms that are so intolerably unbalanced in the company's favor that they're simply unacceptable making it necessary to develop some ideas as to what alternative uses for your remaining working years can be developed 2. If you are a Fedex Ground contractor a similar situation. Fedex Ground is gone and that hauling contract which was never binding upon FXG to begin with goes away as well. Again ,whether or not you are offered a new contract is anybody's guess and likewise you don't know the terms except that they will decidedly in the company's favor and possibly even worse than before. And those so called "negotiations"? Get out of here. It was a dog and pony show Ground staged to try and make the feds think that you really were an independent contractor. Therefore, believing that you are going to be the beneficiary of this so called "restructuring" you're lying to yourself. You'll simply be required to do more with less. So if you're a contractor or a so called "contractor business contact" plan on driving a route yourself everyday just to keep from losing it. The most vital component in this latest little caper is time. Raj and his cast of characters are tryin to keep the stock from tanking, dependable and well versed on company operations employees from bailing ahead of the time when they can be disposed of, continuing to keep contractors believing that their margins will be restored to previous levels.
