[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 610786, member: 4653"] Its my opinion that you are dillusion and UPS will be just fine when the economy recovers. UPS' efficency trumps any cost-saving measures that Fed-Ex enjoys. I don't need to see the numbers. My opinion is based on the eye-ball test. We have six UPS drivers and one Fed-Ex ground driver in my town. So, my eyeballs tell me if a company can make money with one driver in a town, the other is making much more with six drivers in the same area. I'll start worrying when the town is down to 4 drivers. I don't see this happening because 3 days of the last 3 weeks we added 2 routes to make 8 drivers in the town. If UPS was really desparate for profit, they would have just eliminated the 2 extra routes. Its not about business where I deliver. My busineses are getting a healthy share of parcels and my house calls are out of control! Throw in LL Bean now, and I'm stopping at every other house! If there is a problem at UPS, maybe its the business plan? [/QUOTE]
