[QUOTE="area43, post: 210416, member: 4862"] I disagree on the company not having a legitimate gripe about the wages they pay when making a profit. The competition growth is growing faster than ours. UPS is making a profit,but is losing ground because of its agreement on the labor side. Dont get me wrong, I support the union as well as the company. I believe, as an employee we need both. Back on subject. We rule the market that is correct. Let me use this analogy to help you better understand. The Glacier, !)the glacier is our customer base - huge, been their along time. 2)the sun and ocean is the competition. Our massive customer base has sustained us so far, but the melting pursist and I believe it will get worse. What we need is more layers of ice. Dont you see that the glacier is struggling. Were losing more ice than were gaining(growth is weak,but it does equal profit). I guess it all boils down to your view on the future of UPS. I have a more worried(pessimistic) view. I believe we should take drastic measures now, which would be lowering operating cost even though we show a profit. It appears you have a more positive outlook on UPS's future. Im just tring to avoid a problem that might be coming, I hope you agree. Lets take a freeze now, stablize rates, have even bigger record profits and body slam the competition by under cutting them. Lets take a more aggresive approach. After the competition has been crushed, then will go after the higher wages, better insurance,etc etc. [/QUOTE]
