[QUOTE="Coldworld, post: 129376, member: 4777"] hmmm, you show me anywhere in the last few years where ups has had negative growth in volume. I dont think you will find it. Look at the recent earnings. Growth of ground near 3/4 of million new pkgs a day. This is almost half of fedex grounds daily volume. Think about this, back in the rps days before fedex, they were delivering almost one million pkgs a day. They were growing slowly and ups mgt never really cared very much. Ok foreward to today. how many years have fedex owned rps. And they are up to 2 million a day. How many pkgs a day do you think rps would have today if fedex never bought them, probably close to 2 million. I dont think they are growing as fast as people think. Percentage wise, maybe. Not by actual daily volume. Nobody is taking into consideration new businesses that wernt around even 5 years ago. Ups mgt have been bitching and spinning the volume issue for 99 years. Even in the 80-90 when double digit growth was the norm, ups use to say they were loosing volume to the post office. Take the amount of years that fedex has owned rps. Now devide that by how many more packages they are delivering now compared to rps era daily volume. This issue is spun every which way. Does anyone agree? [/QUOTE]
