[QUOTE="BigBrownSanta, post: 454875, member: 11097"] To add to dannyboy's excellent post, most routes are set up to deliver businesses first. When you have record ice and snow conditions like this, businesses don't open. Those packages don't get delivered. The problem then becomes, where do you put those packages when your truck is already crammed full? Your ability to make deliveries becomes harder and harder with each undelivered business package because you are wading through all the closed businesses packages to get to the residential packages. IMO, Fedex doesn't have this problem simply because they don't have the same number of packages and deliveries on their trucks. [/QUOTE]
