Wow, you make me sound.....almost scheming, devious... well okay, you caught me.:D Glad you like the info. Drive safe

If you ever thought or just wondered about incorporating or maybe you are but it is confusing to you, here is a little info in what it entails.:D One should note, and some find it funny ( because they just dont understand ) the issuing of stocks is noted in the Articles and no-where is it...

You can have a DOD clearance and not be WG. Fedex is pressuring WG drivers to get or maintain their DOD clearance. We just renewed ours in Jan after letting it lapse last year. Fedex kept sending us messages that we needed to renew. We told them we were not interested in DOD loads because of...

Linda and I did our DOD paper work during orientation. It took 45 days to get an interim clearance (mid April to June ) we had full clearance by mid July. That was four years ago when it was pretty backed up, I hear, as davekc, it can take as little as 30 days. The rates took a tumble about 18...

Oh my gawd, you get funnier every second. Hey, I am incorporated with EIN NO. biz checking account and a corp line of credit. I have a lawyer AND an accountant as well. Just because I CHOOSE to only service one customer doesnt make my corporation any different than yours, except of course you...

Were you in Tenn? Linda over heard two State Patrol Officers questioning a driver about some convicts who escaped last week and believed to be in the area. We are at the TA in Denmark Tenn.

Amusing but mis-guided........are you and pookie related?:D

We are on Beale St in Memphis enjoying the sunny day listening to DABLUZ. Then off to Vero Beach Fl on Monday

Your are right on both counts, I am a terrible typist and you are not obliged to do anything for anyone.....but then you would be nothing to everyone ( independent contractor-wise) as no-one would even know you exist.:cool:

Only those you serve expecting remuneration.:cool:

If you are contracted to say Fedex, they are your customer.

There have been instances where employment was not found as well One has to be very careful or else the IRS can label you as an employee and you would lose many of your write offs. This is an ongoing battle.

You are using an employer/employee relationship and applying it as an argument in an independent contractor scenario, sorry that dont work.

I dont buy it, but, thats your story.....

You may want to edit your comment to Phil: The National Labor Relations Act or Wagner Act (after its sponsor, Senator Robert F. Wagner) (Pub.L. 74-198, 49 Stat. 449, codified as amended at 29 U.S.C. § 151–169), is a 1935 United States federal law that limits the means with which employers may...

Independent contractor, that second word is a form of contract. Fedex had you sign one. If your reason for a load being unsafe is because there is no room to sleep with a full 8 ft load.....DUH Maybe you could post your contract for us to see to shed light on how Fedex viewed you, knew you...

Maybe, it is the intention to be vague with their answers. As this is a constantly changing industry with many variables. Kinda like someone inferring having 1st hand experience with something then only to be shown to have 2nd hand knowledge. Hmmmmmmmmm, conscience and truth in...

All carriers are bad. Not one will re-morgage their home or biz or sell their children to buy me a Porsche. :( NOT ONE. They all suck. Now that being said, I have had 4+ years of financial success with Fedex. Would I recommend them to someone else....SURE.:D Would I guarentee their success with...

Re: Anyone out there working for fedex straight job solo???? To make it easy for you, I even put a pink bow around the answer.:cool: But 1st: What is your work experience. Have you ever been self employed before? If you were self employed, were you successful? Now define your idea of...
