As shared in the original thread...

My issue with FedEx, specifically FedEX Ground and FedEx Home Delivery is that those drivers are not FedEx employees but rather independent contractors. Only FedEx Express drivers are FedEx employees.

All UPS drivers are UPS employees.

This should not make a difference but when you consider that independent contractors (also like most Amazon delivery drivers) are paid very low wages and do not get health benefits like their fully employed counterparts, one can understand why sometimes they might be frustrated doing the same work for so much less overall compensation.
