<p>[QUOTE="Mnmover99, post: 12239003, member: 338043"]The drivers at Fed Ex Freight are employed by Fed Ex Freight. The Fed Ex Ground trucks are contracted to Fed Ex Ground and the must be owned/controlled by a corporation in the state they reside in. Fed Ex Ground requires drivers to be paid by w-2 not 1099. This was to isolate Fed Ex Ground from employee problems, unemployment etc. There is some discussion that Fed Ex Freight will be taking over Fed Ex Ground routes when they can, and a lot of Fed Ex Ground contractors are unhappy as the fuel prices have gone up and the fuel surcharge has not. The contractors that run from a large terminal can possibly purchase discounted fuel, at the terminal, but not sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
