[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 79621, member: 484"] I was using the 1% as an example only, had nothing to do with the real numbers. As for fuel increases, there will be a backlash, not only to the surcharges but also to what we pay at the pump. When you hear that Exxon made a larger profit last year than any company in the history of the USA, when it claims that the hikes were needed to offset the losses due to Katrina....... People will only pay for expensive things when they have a perceived value. If the value is no longer there, the price will be too high, and the customer will go elsewhere. That is what is bothering me when our drivers are hitting the road at 9:30 instead of 8:30 the promise is harder to keep, and it would seem that service failures are 'hidden". As you say, time will tell. [INDENT]d [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
