[QUOTE="RPSman, post: 3595659, member: 51437"] How is Amazon going to have enough packages for 40 vans/contractor? Even if they pull all deliveries away from the post office, I don't think that number is reasonable. When I started with the Rolla, MO RPS terminal in 1994, we had 5 original routes. They added a large town in the Mineral Belt, we went up to 6. After a year, we went up to 7. Then around UPS strike time, we added 2 more. a 10th route was added, then an 11th route was transferred down from the St. Charles terminal? Don't think they can have this many, think they are going to find out like Avon Cosmetics did when they toyed with the idea of having their own delivery routes, pre RPS start of 1985. [/QUOTE]
