[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3039105, member: 24302"] The company I'm hoping to get hired by is only going to do small packages. The Ground guys look at it from their perspective but Amazon has to pay enough for their two biggest shippers, FedEx and UPS, to pay a lot of people $25-$35hr plus benefits plus a huge amount on trucks, planes, and more and still make a profit. By paying small outfits like the one I'm considering they come out ahead. The Ground guys are only thinking about their low cost employees and trucks, there's a lot more being paid for by Amazon and other shippers to make it all happen. Amazon by the way makes very few products themselves, they're a conduit for many large businesses to take the final leg of shipping off their hands. So what you're seeing is Amazon making it possible for many businesses to be more profitable by holding down costs. That's why they have the clout they do. [/QUOTE]
