[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4307568, member: 58386"] As I told you before on numerous occasions I was offered additional routes free of charge but when I looked at the rates they offered to carry those additional routes I turned them all down. As a matter of principle I simply refused to send people out on a daily basis in all kinds of weather to drag around the kind of freight you see on the other thread for the wages and lack of benefits many contractors are paying even to this day years later. There were contractors on job boards offering the same money they did 4 years ago. I don't have a bit of pity for them because of their dumb assumption that they would always have people available who who would turn out the production and precision they needed from them for the kind of wages they had to offer. Oh sure a few contractors here and there never run out but many other's found out the hard way that you can in fact run out of willing people long before you run out of boxes .....And this peak season was a prime example of it.
