[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1430545, member: 43436"] It's not B.S. In one part of my metro area, UPS had two vintage buildings about 15 miles apart. They intended on replacing both buildings with a new, modern facility but during the downturn closed one and modernized (as best as they could) the other instead. A friend of mine works in that building and was only getting his 17.5 guarantee as recently as two years ago, but has been working peak-like hours all year - close to 45 per week. Apparently the volume that disappeared came back. Apparently UPS has acquired and is renovating a former Walmart, but it won't be ready until next year. In the interim, they intend on building a trailer park adjacent to the incumbent facility. [/QUOTE]
