[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 1765378, member: 13921"] Have any of you checked to see what it costs to ship a Saturday NDA??? I am guessing that Saturday air volume is the 2nd most profitable stuff we deliver. Paying a full seniority driver time and a half is cheaper than paying straight time with benefits. I would bet that Saturdays are the only days that some rural routes in my building show a profit. Last week, I delivered 9-60lb NDA packages to a road construction business. I asked the guy that signed, "Any idea what the shipping charges were?" To which he replied, "I do not care. We bill the machine that broke down at $5500 an hour and cannot use it until these parts go into it." Someone getting something on Saturday needs it really bad. [/QUOTE]
