[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 234970, member: 11234"] For one thing, some of our people feel we're "getting rid of small parcel" by expanding in other businesses. Nothing could be further from the truth. The fact of the matter is that the company has to grow, and quite frankly, the 80's are over. There's not much more small package to grow into anymore. We already move 7% of the national GDP. We're everywhere. Try to go on vacation for a week and not see a package car. It's almost impossible. But the analysts tell us we have to grow 15% per year because that's what healthy companies do. And they're right. So we have to get into other businesses, but all of these businesses only work for us because we're already going everywhere everyday. Small parcel is still the heart of the company, and if we got rid of it, logistics and supply chain and all these other ventures wouldn't work because they're based on the fact that we have a huge distribution system in place.
