Richie, help me out with this one. At one time, didn't the NLRB rule in favor of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and said they had the right to negotiate with FedEx "employees," "contractors," "drivers," you know what I mean in Wilmington and Boston, MA.
The case was taken to the US Court of Appeals and FedEx won the case. Very basically, the court agreed that FedEx that the people the Teamsters were trying to organize were independent work area contractors and not employees of FedEx.
I think it was something like that. I'm not certain my mind is failing lately.
