[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5363070, member: 58386"] It's all gong to come to the question of how many contractors Ground can get caught in a no win situation. They can walk away, sell for pennies or take the deal and hope for better times. Their contract is an intangible asset. It has no physical presence but potential revenue value but in this case the potential is entirely in the hands of Fat Freddy and his willingness to grant it to the contractor and that's for a maximum of one year . If there's no profit or minimal profit then what's it's value? As a result it comes down to the same offer....."here's the load....here's what it pays....do you want it or don't you"? As for Patton and the way he described his group, "it's not this, it's not that, it's not something else",. he' has already ceded whatever power it might have otherwise acquired. The only way that could get you the terms you want now is a very sizeable refusal of service over a large enough area for a long enough period of time....and he's just not going to get it, Fred Freddy knows it and Johnny Dollar Sign has made that point clear. The matter is already settled. Take the offer or leave. There is simply no third choice in the matter and it's not likely that there ever will be. [/QUOTE]
