[QUOTE="Aquaman, post: 5913049, member: 68552"] He knows the problem with that contract wasn’t the contract. It was FedEx. FedEx wanted guaranteed volume or payment. Something they know good and well is impossible. They made the demands so ridiculous to avoid continuing to operate a daytime operation built around the contract. Well UPS has an air operation that’s appropriately sized already. And even though their airline is much smaller than ours. They clearly see a way to adjust their operation to make that contract worth it. He can crunch the numbers all he wants, but that contract gave people jobs. And that has to matter too. It has to matter if you want to stay in business and have standards. Not saying it’s the most important thing. But it gave people jobs. And they absolutely could have adjusted the operation to boost profit. [/QUOTE]
