[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5379383, member: 58386"] Thank you for supporting my position when I said earlier that FDX could tie an abandoned work area to a contractor with an adjoining area making accepting that abandoned area a condition for acquiring a new contract. Believe me, doing something like that is well within their past practices. Another good point you made is concerns regarding the real intent of Spence Patton. He plainly stated that he was looking out first and foremost for #1. It perplexes me as to why contractors are pinning so much hope that a single contractor will be able to improve their lot. Perhaps this guy really does represent contractors last best hope of reacquiring economic viability. Regardless, contractors have simply made their money from FXG contracting. It will never again be that lucrative. The best they can hope is to hang on long enough while hoping for the return of the contract flipper/speculator who will again badly overpay for routes.
