[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 670772, member: 22662"] Paralyzed by fear? Sad to hear it. The issues that I see are not difficult to fix. They may require that one or more drivers be let go. In fact if I could find just a little more darkness in my soul, I'd fire one on the morning I have my driver's meeting just to make sure I have their attention. I don't know about other contractors, but I feel like I have a core of 4 drivers, 2 I could hire back off the street, and the other two route could be covered by the seven of us while training 2 more. Sounds crazy, but I've actually had a similar occurrence happen in the past. As far as losing a contract, possible but not likely. The contract puts 2 items in play. 1) Inelligibility of 2 drivers within a year (by accidents or complaints). and 2) Lack of driver training program by contractor. Both of these would have to occur. I will have #2 in place by the end of the month. So will there be a mass exodus of drivers when I lay down the fact that they need to have their heads in the game and be professional? If so, then it's for the best. We have a lot of qualified drivers from peak waiting for their shot. One way or another, these issues will be dealt with. Fear? No. In fact, I feel more and more confident in my abilities to turn this around the more I think about it. Did I mention there's a crap-load of money motivating me as well? Pardon me while I go salivate.:happy2: [/QUOTE]
