[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 5374918, member: 22662"] Yes. Line haul and also been getting the shaft. It’s very much my opinion that the FedEx threats of “contractual remedies” are fairly lame right now. The number of open routes being filled by contingency for over a year has never been higher. That inability to find suitable contractors speaks volumes. Whereas in normal conditions FedEx could and would go after contractors who would take part in #purplefriday, line haul has a set number of days when they can simply not run. If contractors on the east and west coasts (liberal leaning😀) the jams wouldn’t take long to incapacitate the system. [USER=58386]@bacha29[/USER] believes some 90% of contractors would need to take part. Obviously line haul by it’s nature could theoretically cripple entire regions. The tiger has been poked.
