[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3078206, member: 58386"] I wonder if you might know something about this. Terminal management wanted to know if I would be willing to go out on staffing agency time in a rental and help out in places that are getting overrun. I said, " it'll take an Act of Congress or an Act of God but I thought you got rid of this sort of thing". Their response was that if any contractor did not procure enough additional assets to keep up with peak thereby necessitating the terminal to deploy assets they would then bill the contractor for all costs the terminal incurred. No question Ground is a poor set up to begin with and in this depressed rural area these small route contractors who have no more than 5 routes to begin with don't have the revenue stream to support full time fill in drivers or keep much in the way of additional vehicles but by the looks of things there will be no consideration given to those circumstances.
