[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 1145508, member: 33696"] i dunno about Ground ops that well, but at least they walk into a pre-loaded vehicle & don't have to waste unpaid sorting /loading time some HD routes are pretty profitable if you can run-gun to the tune of 20-25 stops per on road hour; this week i'm pretty close to the terminal & have a tight service area, allowing me to clock out close to MaineGroundDriver's time (well 1600-1800) so they're making over $1k for at least 50 hours as a swing/cover, i had to re-negotiate my rates so it can be worth it to me to work that day. If the contractor can't find enough volume, he'll either operate in the red ~ & pay my minimum salary or dissolve the route & split/flex the stops to neighboring routes during peak, i know to go w/ the temp agency so i will get paid to load/sort, drive to the service area, return to base & any OT tacked on to all those other tasks that a contractor usually doesn't pay for...
