[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2034064, member: 58386"] When talking about scale in terms of 500+ stops , doing that at the terminal I was in would involve 35+ zip codes stretched across atleast 4 rural counties. Therefore while it is important to discuss such matters as how the ISP impacts matters at a given terminal keep in mind that demographics and the strengths and weakness of the economy a terminal serves is widely varied. Right from the very outset it was quite clear that the last thing the area I served needed was another small box hauler. It is therefore important to identify the most common consequences the conversion is going to have on all terminals. Management skills will not have nearly the impact as will a dying local economy as well as X's hard bargaining, leaving some contractors faced with the greatest threat of all, the law of diminishing returns and any propective buyer will spot it immediately.
