[QUOTE="VTBrown, post: 272300, member: 11076"] "Take a look at FedEx - they have annual revenues almost as high as UPS's yet their volume is way less. That's because they have a much higher percentage of premium service volume. I'm sure UPS would love to have that ratio. But there's no way UPS would ever sell off their ground segment no matter how un-profitable it is. As long as they keep the ground segment, they will have a never ending supply of shippers to push premium services on." Err.....business 101. What is the highest cost associated with running a business? Payroll. Second in our industry? Fuel. Guess who has lower cost's associated with those two items? FedEx [/QUOTE]
