[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 5307394, member: 23516"] They haven't funneled anything. LMO is barely 2 years old. It was to launch in early 2020. Then COVID hit and it was put on the back burner. When it finally launched, it launched with package counts that were much higher than planned (thanks to COVID) and there's not really any consensus on what the ideal balance of freight is. Changes in volume and staffing present challenges in operating a steady, consistent LMO plan. As for switching to a contractor model, Express has enough trouble with staffing as it is. Who's lining up to work for Express as a courier? No one. Who's going to line up to do the same job for less pay and fewer benefits than what Express provides? Anything is possible to one degree or another but I don't see that happening. [/QUOTE]
