[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 696431, member: 24302"] Good points but I think they are fighting it so hard because it's very possible that UPS sized pay and benefits will bankrupt the company and kill their golden goose. I doubt in this economy that the money is there to give us everything some would like. And sometimes I get the feeling some would really like to hurt the company. Forgot where I read it but a FedEx exec said something to the effect that all services would be handled by couriers in a couple of years, or something like that. I'm betting when a customer calls for a pup, an Express employee will pup it even if it's a Ground pkg. Overnight will stay with Express, 2 and 3 day will be seperated out along with Ground at hubs and ramps to be sent to Ground stations. Possibly even Standard Overnight in some locations will go to Ground. I think Express has it's place, but to minimize the union's impact Express will be trimmed to the bone. Just speculation, but I won't be shocked if it happens. [/QUOTE]
