Of course not. I fear that they've made a calculation that losing *some* of amazon's business and losing other business to competitors will be a winning long term strategy, as they will maintain their margins on the work they do fly, and when the next downturn hits, they will be at a considerable advantage. It doesn't make sense to me that they've dragged it out this long if they didn't have some such nefarious plan...this can hardly be a surprise.

Again, this is obviously speculation, and I would be delighted if I'm 100% wrong and they sign an industry leading contract tomorrow.
