[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 441459, member: 4653"] I posted earlier about an account that we picked up that ships chemicals and haz-mats and that it didn't dawn on me for some time that we must have gotten the account from DHL. DUH! to me. The company is Aldrich and I'm delivering at least 15 a day. This is great for UPS because its exactly what we want. A large shipper with deliveries destined entirely for businesses. I was talking to a soon to be unemployed DHL driver and he told me that the town I deliver in will now gain 150 stops per day from Nordstrom! I know this is the volume UPS probably doesn't want as bad as Aldrich Chemical, but 150 residential delivery stops sounds like another route in town to me:happy2:. Instead of cutting the baselines they will have to keep the routes in because of these packages. The DHL driver I spoke with is losing his job. He also said that DHL once had 17% of the ground market. If we get only half of that it will mean more jobs at UPS or at least no layoffs in the 1st quarter of next year. [/QUOTE]
