[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 1143334, member: 22662"] I don't think so. They have to make sure they have the right system with the right people and has to be a big enough profit. Think about the bottom line. How much does Ground save over Express? Now suppose switching to a contractor model at Express (or as much as possible). Say Express loses alot of business due to that change. Lets say 7%. That's alot of money. But if they save even more, does it matter? If Express'margins continue to dwindle due to lack of demand or a concerted effort by couriers to slow down, imagine how quickly this could take shape. Do you really think Memphis hasn't explored and paved this avenue as a viable option? [/QUOTE]
