I would also think it would be interesting to know how much commuters/deviators save the company. I know for me personally, I save them thousands/year by deviating.
So you save them thousands /year off the already reduced by 25% banks and you wonder how it helps them? We deviate because getting to Memphis sucks and we will do most anything to avoid it.
