Not this time of year.
Forecast is for 750 million packages this peak. In 2015 ups and FedEx combined it was only 950 million.
With contract year coming up, I figured they would find a way to post a crappy earnings report.

They do tend to do a bit of creative accounting around this time.
That's why I said that.

Expenses always go up.
They took a $50 million hit on the hurricanes. One blurb mentioning tax cuts expiring for 2016 and lowering the guidance for full year to be flat and match last year leads me to believe January is going to be more of a cluster than usual. One thing that I noticed was the record year for international shipping. That's a big revenue generator.
If I were to bet, I would say that is when they try and take all the losses and charges they can to have a bad 2 quarters, that, conveniently coincides with the beginning of contract talks in January. Then play the poor card. I dunno.
