With House control now in the hands of the Republicans, and Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., now likely to succeed Oberstar as chairman of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, don't expect the FedEx labor amendment to come back.
Mica is a former chairman of the aviation subcommittee and well known to the airline industry. Without the FedEx labor provision, Mica could find FAA reauthorization a relatively quick legislative accomplishment to tote up in the next Congress.
Thank God card check is dead. Now if we can just break the back of the IBT the world would truly be a wonderful place. Oh wait YRCW is going to do that for us. Yeeha
Not trying to start anything here but why would you say that? What kind of problems has the IBT caused the world or you in your eyes?
How many years and hours to you spend slaving on a dock leemcabee? What is your equipment like? Do you think $17 bucks a week in dues would break your piggy bank? Do you have the power to bargain for higher wages and better working conditions? Ya, thats what I thought.

Smokestack, GFY.
What is it that scares everyone about a union you need to ask yourselves? Maybe you should sit down and talk to a happy UPS driver and find out just what your missing and just why Fedex is fighting back the union. I know myself that higher wages and someone to back me up when I have a problem would just blow. :nono_h4h: . Now I realize most of you have never been in a union and your scared, but trust me its ok. Maybe everyone at Fedex should sit back and see how greener it could be!
Excuse me Z. I already make $80,000yr. You don't here me crying. FedEx treats me just fine. I do my job and FedEx pays me what they say they will pay me. I don't expect more. The labor market will dictate the future.
