[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 1770320, member: 17605"] ...an envelope is $17. The average package delivered in my hub is a tad larger than a shoe box. Those are roughly $50-$75 a box. Top scale air wage is $27-ish (I have to look...I know we just got a raise...) we make roughly 70% of ground wage, we average about 15 stops for 14 drivers and they clock out at 12:30. Plus in my building only 7 of the 14 are at top scale. Most of them just started or have a year in. My building is making bank every Saturday. UPS does nothing if it doesn't make them money in the long run. They're slave to the quarter results. Yes, some buildings lose money. Some centers are cost centers, but they make up for it in the constant around town advertising the trucks do and from the larger operations. I'm in the second largest city in the state (no worries...still only about 500k people including the outlying areas) so we do ok. ORION sure doesn't do any favors for our building. That's why our Saturday air is profitable. Drivers make decisions on how to deliver ;P [/QUOTE]
