[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3216588, member: 58386"] Here's what I hope comes out of all this. That damn company finally comes to the realization that in many parts of the country the abundant supply of cheap, productive, experienced, motivated labor the kind who can walk in grab a scanner jump in a truck and go out and knock off a bunch of stops the kind they believe exists everywhere then goes among the missing for 11 months then suddenly reappears simply does NOT exist everywhere in this day and age. But at Ground this is exactly what contractors nationwide are somehow expected to find. In the depressed rural area where I live the largest incorporated borough in the entire terminal service area has a population of 12,000 people and that's more than 60 miles from the terminal A place where half the town's on Social Security and the half's on relief and of the handful who might want to work even fewer could pass the drug test. Year's ago one of my fellow Day1's summed up the entire experience in 3 simple words......." an impossible situation". [/QUOTE]
