[QUOTE="soberups, post: 676614, member: 14668"] The reality of many satellite centers is that they dont save money or overall miles...they only shift those expenses around to a different part of the operation. In typical UPS fashion, some high-level corporate genius from another time zone had a bright idea and wrote a memo. It was then mandated that "x" number of satellite centers would be implemented....without any regard towards whether or not it made sense to do so. There are a number of hidden costs and consequences that result from using satellite centers, and these were never factored in to the original equation. Our satellite centers lose money. Local management is well aware of this fact, but the genius who forced them on us is too far up the corporate food chain to have his bright idea overruled, so for the time being we are stuck with them.
