[QUOTE="Nick9075, post: 1201693, member: 38606"] Don't do it... I am telling you that the job market is rapidly improving and in most parts of the country is as good as it was in the late 1990s.. I made a bad decision last year and analysed 'the numbers' like you are doing to buy several routes but unfortunately I didn't think I would be dealing with such scheming, underhanded slimy people (to put it nicely) and whenever I try to speak the truth (I tell it the way it is), a few contractors who are the lapdogs of FedEx mgmt come immediately attack me on this board in what seems to be in a NY minute. I am a contractor like I said the numbers look good on paper, in reality it turned out to be a money losing nightmare even with 3 routes in the greater NYC area.. I am not like many other contractors, I think it is almost criminal to expect someone to work 12-14 hours a day including loading the truck and making the deliveries and pay less than $800 a week, some believe that with 93% of the workforce employed with the average hourly wage in the USA at $25 an hour that they can pay $600 a week while they drive around in a 2010 later Mercedes E class Sedan and wear $200 sneakers, these types of contractors have somehow brainwashed their workers to think that is normal and that there aren't any other options.
