[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4533789, member: 58386"] Right. And what is the source of that growth in a COVID 19 economy?.........Government stimulus which will begin to wind down at the end of July and perhaps an Express shipping option that is clearly becoming too expensive to utilize? Needing returns at a time when Fat Freddy had scores of planes pushed off to the side of the runway all over the world he up and decides to throw Smartpost as well as every other box he can throw over to Ground thrown over to Ground . Finding enough people willing to run those hubs and terminals then became a facility management problem that requires a facility management solution. And finding enough people willing to go out and risk getting their heads blown of for scraps and peanuts became a contractor problem that required a contractor solution. Of course you'll have a very fortunate few like bbsam and iwbf who just happen to be in an area that has large enough population to draw from but judging by the desperate facility and contractor pleas posted on the job boards they are truly in the minority. Things will no doubt settle down in the next few weeks and you might even find a few places looking for boxes. Could it be due to the running out of government stimulus money..........or perhaps in today's failure is not an option shipping world shippers seeing Ground's failures and shortcomings they decide that Ground is no longer a cheap option they can afford to use?.........We'll see.
