I don't know this for a fact at all - I just assume it to be so - but somewhere at UPS there is the basic, minimum "this is what it costs UPS to simply handle a shipment, average, from point A to point B", strictly the UPS costs involved. My bet is that $5-6 is that number.
I think the idea of a ground envelope is great - but it is better served by the post office via media mail, because they hit every house, every day, which makes it profitable at $4-5. We cannot do a delivery of a package at that price.
Actually, no. It is a matter of cents. But no one (including you) wants to say that because someone will ask for proof. Whatever, it is what it is.
There is a national example that was sold recently. WE DELIVERED a certain type of parcel for a matter of CENTS (and i mean very few cents). This was worth it for us. <----- I assume that because there is no way we got a multi-million dollar agreement without sales leverage.
What is forced out of us (physically) everyday is directly proportional to overall national/international gains (whether the lowest on the totem pole believes it to be true or not).
This is the beauty/point/magnificence/meaning/existence/rational of a chain of command.
Why is it that only the people that work the hardest accept a chain of command?
