[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5050356, member: 58386"] Simply reaffirms what some of us have known for quite some time. It's a poor setup to begin with. At the same time however Roadway knew the severe limitations that RPS had and operated within it's limited capabilities by staying strictly B to B. When Fat Freddy got hold of it he tried to turn it into CHUPS. Which as you know stands for "Cheap UPS". Needless to say that it was only going to be a matter of time until you burn through your supply of cheap throwaway labor. All the while the birth rate had been slowing combined with a growing unwillingness on the part of the smaller in number workforce to take labor intensive low paying service jobs. They wanted better more promising employment and set out to do what was necessary to become qualified for that better employment. All the major carriers will bumble and stumble their way through another peak simply because shippers have no other options. The carrier who is best able to hold onto it's market share and find a way to best retain employees will come away just fine. The others? SOL. [/QUOTE]
