[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5531569, member: 58386"] The object is to drastically reduce corporate overhead costs. The first place you start is by eliminating the several tiers of duplicating and overlapping management. Sending air box over to Ground and expect them to haul it for nothing would be far more likely to create more abandoned routes than sufficient amounts of savings while at the same time keeping the costly and oversized corporate structure in place. If Ground contractors think they are going to make a king's ransom hauling air box, they should stop to realize that all they're doing is providing even greater value to FDX with little to show for it. Air box for most contractors will be a headache they don't need because like so many other demands FDX is already placing on them this too will be for little to nothing in return. [/QUOTE]
