[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 2365950, member: 55017"] Around here no ISPs are jumping at covering more area. They had to force one to take on an area that was soon to be open. The margins are so slim and renegotiations only make them slimmer guys don't want the extra headaches. You have more control over operations. Management only talks to me about my results. They don't really care how many routes I'm running any given day or if I show up at the building at all. It's true fedex doesn't much care about an individual contractor, but the senior manager that would need to send the contract up or issue a letter to cure does. They don't want the headaches of a dirty transition to a new contractor. They would lose all their bonus money and likely for a while. Massive failure isn't a good look for them either. If one likes just driving a truck they should sell. If they like the back end business side they can get to scale and accept sometimes it will suck and other times it will be great. Unfortunately the suck times are becoming more plentiful while compensation is going down with no reason to believe it will go up. [/QUOTE]
