[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2439585, member: 58386"] Happy for you GS. I'm sure that those on this site who accused those of us who got out of "don't know how to run a business or " didn't bother to get up to scale" now have second thoughts . There's a sucker born every minute and you were fortunate to have one come your way. When this business plan was set up by Roadway it was only meant to handle the business to business boxes that were impractical to use an 18 wheeler for along with being hard to get it in and out of. Today X expects it to serve multiple markets and handle any kind of freight it can load onto those little 3/4 and one ton units. So what if it isn't designed to handle it and turns them into smelter bait in 3 years or less? It's not their wagon . Like wise as you pointed out one thing has in fact never changed from a settlement perspective . They give you a little more here and take it away someplace else. "Your BUSINESS"? The only part you have control over is the area where they can divest themselves of risk, liability and variable costs. They control everything else. Glad to see you got out under favorable terms. If those who remain think that it's rough now, wait a few more years. [/QUOTE]
