[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5646265, member: 58386"] According to a You Tube video released by the Teamsters themselves UPS market share is 37% while Fedex share is 33%. . I and I'm sure a lot of people were surprised to learn that Fedex has drawn this close to UPS. It's my understanding that under the proposed new contract UPS will no longer use PVD's. At the same time however FDX Ground contractors can and have used them under the guise of subcontracting. If there is a strike an expanded use of PVD operators could give FDX some additional capacity. There is no question that all the major carriers combined could not absorb the entire 37% market share but they might be able to absorb enough of it to significantly reduce the impact of a Teamsters strike. If it turns out that the much anticipated 11th hour offer was ruse all along we will quickly discover the capabilities of the other carriers either individually or through cooperative agreements.
