[QUOTE="isdrone, post: 57715"] In the late 90's our ground market share was around 70%? It is now at 47% Look at this excerpt from an online article: According to market researcher JPMorgan, UPS's share of the domestic parcel market fell one percentage point from 48% to 47% last year. That's a small but important shift in the tide, according to market watchers. FedEx increased its share from 29% to 31% in 2004 and DHL seized about 7% of the market after a year where it made big investments in the domestic U.S. parcel market. And its share is expected to grow even faster. JPMorgan says DHL could capture up to 18% by 2006, following its $1.2 billion planned expansion in the U.S. DHL picked up 7%, FedEx picked up 2%. Did the ground market grow 10%? NO. We lost volume - period. Some of the comments about not turning in sales leads are absolutely ridiculous. The "not in my backyard" philosophy won't work anymore. As a company we fell asleep at the wheel in 2003 & 2004. Do I agree with all of the changes no. It has affected me personally, but I understand why the changes were made. Wake everyone. FedEx & DHL are preparing for 2008. 1time, upsdude, and Over5 dont worry if we go on strike in 2008 and I am sure your workload will decrease tremendously. [/QUOTE]
