Would you consider a royalty deal?
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that term...so...maybe.
Deal?
Yes.Deal?
I figured as much.

Sell the route(a) with the provision that in addition to the sales price you receive a negotiated percentage of the gross on a monthly basis.
I would consider such an arrangement. The problem comes in enforcing the agreement. As far as X is concerned, that isn't a deal they recognize at all.

Is that 600.00-700.00 After taxes? If not, take home, realistically, may be more like 400-500..

How can one sell something that does not belong to them?

deep down inside I really do not care
How was peak for my brother and sister package car pilots? Were things as behind as the media portrayed? I know it never is,but the media loves sensationalism and will exploit any and every opportunity to sell their story.
Again,we all do the same thing it's just different color uniforms. I have people ask me frequently if we are enemies? Hello kitty no,why should we be? We do the same thing and there are pleny of boxes to go around.

About 2 years ago, there was a post on here about a contractor in CA who was paying $450 per week. It was significant because the driver was involved in a fatal accident and also showed how unscrupulous some contractors could be.
bbsam? He's probably one of the good ones. It sounds like he tries to give his drivers a decent deal. It's still a scam, but at least he isn't reaming his people like others are.

The norm here in CA is 650 gross for 10 to 12 hour work day. No benefits, sick time or vacation. A lot of Contractors promise to give bonuses but that doesn't happen. After the first week of Peak we had a group of drivers that told their Contractor they were not delivering another piece until he bumped them up for peak. After a heated conversation he caved and bumped them up for the rest of peak a couple hundred a week. We will see if they all get replaced now that Peak is over.

Just telling it like it is
The amount of fools stupid enough to take the job is finite and the supply should be dwindling very soon. I'll be laughing my ass off in the near future when Ground can't get anybody to work for them.

Think they'll last more than a few weeks?

Not if they have any level of intelligence, unless they're desperate. Lol.

I don't really know how they get people, unless they've really effed-up somewhere else.

They could be in an area whose jobs are few and far between. Some people still believe they hype about Fedex. I see it with every new hire at Express, until the luster wears off.

Does take long either. First time management screws you or lies to you. Usually the first week that you're out on the road.
