Unions suck. Big Labor generally stands for paying every employee the same amount of money even if one worker does a great job and another one sleeps all day. I believe labor unions are a doorway to socialism in the United States and if I had my way, I’d outlaw all of them - especially government workers unions, and super-especially teachers unions.Union-hating and Orit-Sklar-name-checking? Yeah. Read the whole thing.

Chuck Muth misses a salient point: Both laws are asinine. Arguing FedEx should be under asinine law A instead of asinine law B is, well, asinine. How about we, instead, voice the opinon that both laws should be gotten rid of?
ReplyDeleteThis coming from a former FedEx Express breadtruck driver (they do do semi's too, by the way, I mean, we handled 9/11 pretty damned well) and the son of a former non-unionized Schnieder OTR driver.
I'd have posted this comment over there, but I kept getting a 404 message when I tried.
Overlooked in the discussion and relevant is recognition of the basis for the different handling of FedEx vs UPS. UPS is a package delivery company. Their business model was established as take package on truck to recipient--largely a surface, 3-5 day operation. Hence they fall under their particular oppressive government interference regulations.
ReplyDeleteFedEX Express (the modifier is important) was established as an over-night air delivery service. Take important document, fly to hub in Memphis, fly to destination and deliver by 10AM. Hence application of different oppressive government interference legislation.
Basic law--government bad. Corollary--unions not good for consumers. Unimportant secondary conclusion--understanding of the issue may or may not have relevance to discussion.
