[QUOTE="Nick9075, post: 1207950, member: 38606"] As a contractor you can make much more working ground than home delivery. The rate per package and settlement enhancement rate is a joke. Is it better with ground? It must be they have newer vehicles and some ground contractors I know are making $$$. There are also more possibilities for disputes and lost packages with home delivery which leads to loss of routes . Eventually I will sell I keep hoping I will make money because I am in a lucrative area but their model is set up so the bulk of profits goto fedex ground and home delivery which if you look at their quarterly earnings are making barn burner profits but it is set up in a way that the contractor model ensures those doing the work and owning the routes can't make anything [/QUOTE]
