[QUOTE="FedGT, post: 4370105, member: 58838"] I don’t have a dog in this fight anymore but a lot of the opposing side of the ground argument is ridiculous. If I still had my contracts I would be more enthusiastic now than the last decade. Incredible increase in stop density while bringing down the avg package size immensely. The commit time argument is a poor argument. The law states that X can’t tell you how to run your route not that a promised service can’t be delivered by a certain time. I can still run the route however I feel as long as the packages get delivered by the time they need to be just like scheduled pickups. At this time Ground is looking stronger than ever and with the increased employment and less OS per truck it is a more feasible model............... how long will it be before X starts dropping any and all $ per stop and per package price, who knows (probably next agreement) sighting more stop density so less cost, but at the moment that it sits, very bullish signs for Ground.
