Are employees for foreign car companies (Toyota, Honda), working in plants here in America members of UAW?

We always hear about UAW negotiations with the Big Three American car makers, but we never hear about their negotiations with Toyota, or Honda, etc. If the UAW is not in the US plants of foreign car companies, is that fair? Shouldn’t the foreign companies have to play by the same US rules as the US car manufactures?

How do I go about picking up my package from the local FedEx facility?

Neven M asked:

A very important package I’m waiting for has arrived at my local FedEx facility and has been sorted, according to their tracker. However, the estimated delivery date in the tracker is still three days from now. Since I’m in a hurry to receive this item, how can I arrange to pick up the package myself from FedEx?

I called their main support line and I was told that I couldn’t do this until they had already made at least one delivery attempt. A brief web search, however, returned many comments from people who have done just this before any delivery attempt was made.

How would I go about this? I can’t find my local facility’s phone number or address anywhere (Portland, OR). What all will I need to bring to prove that the package is mine?
