[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4423084, member: 58386"] Take a moment and look at the online job boards Page after page after page of contractors desperately trying to find that unskilled labor you think is in such an abundant supply. The only trouble is they're offering the same pay they offered 5 years ago or longer because of rate and settlement erosion they can't offer more than fast food wages and zero benefits. They'll only last as contractors until they come to the point where the cheap labor supply in their given market is exhausted. In fact the broker board I follow had 18 new contracts listed (two weeks ago 87) In the past you would be lucky if you saw 3 contracts listed and always with an asking price of at least a years volume. But, of those 18 today 16 of them came with asking prices below 1 year volume and some a couple asking for only half a year's volume. So much about creating jobs. That contractor settlement with terms and rates dictated by Ground determines what a contractor can pay. If he can get enough qualified people who actually give a rodent's expletive deleted about the job itself fine....If he can't ......that's just his tough luck. [/QUOTE]
