Several years ago I found 11 packages stacked behind a vacant building adjacent to the railroad tracks. They were going to six area businesses. They had RPS labels on them. I delivered them and eventually caught up with the driver. He was filling in for the regular driver. I asked him, "What's up with that?" He responded, "What would you do? I get $70 dollars a day no matter if it's 8 hours a day or 18 hours."
Ha, RPS was something else. On a route I had about fifteen years ago, one of their drivers DRed a whole computer system at a customer's mailbox during a thunderstorm. At least he found the address.....
I just have three shipping accounts on my residential area. Everyone of them hates Fedex Ground and will only use Express if their customer request them.
