In an earnings call with analysts last week, Myron Gray, president of U.S. operations, said UPS will watch the volumes generated by its biggest customers closer than ever. If they exceed their original projections by too much, UPS may impose surcharges or defer their shipments for a day, Gray said. [/QUOTE]
