[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1243879, member: 14176"] Then FedEx will drop the ball. This trend toward internet shopping is not going to subside. It is going to expand into every day life, year round, to most every home. UPS needs to decide if they want to dominate the home shopping shipping market or just be happy with what they can handle through their aging infrastructure. I've long contended that UPS needs to expand its fleet, facilities and staffing and endure lower margins in order to position themselves for the future that is home shopping. Instead we bolster the Post Office with "less desirable" packages when we could be embracing them and watching them become exponentially more profitable when the delivery goes from one piece to several. All businesses have an element of risk when prognosticating what the future will bring. I fear this company is presently bleeding the system for every penny it can get to satisfy the NYSE, rather than positioning itself for the changing market place. We are called United Parcel Service, but this peak we would be more apply named United Parcial Service and don't think people will forget it as they go through their holiday empty handed with a meaningless guarantee.
