[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 532735, member: 18471"] To use the coffee truck analogy: You buy the coffee truck and route. After you've been running YOUR ROUTE (after all you paid for it). You find you've got some customers that want donuts but the people you buy your coffee from won't let you sell donuts. Or you have 1 stop that's way out in the boondocks, it costs you $4.00 to drive there for a $1.50 sale, a net loss of $3.50. If you were REALLY INDEPENDENT you could stop going there. Or you could do what some of those independent contractors do, sheet it as closed because it's too hard to find. (This has happenned to me, my address has been here almost 50yr, but you couldn't find it with a gps.) Also Living the Dream, if you think Fedex's model is so much better, why are you working for UPS? [/QUOTE]
