[QUOTE="scratch, post: 82061, member: 1674"] What does everybody think about the new Fast Lane ground service enhancement? We are being briefed on this in the morning PCM's this week. For those of you not in the affected areas, UPS has upgraded our Ground Service by hiring a thousand new Feeder Drivers to shorten the time it takes to get packages between major markets. For example, here in Atlanta, it will take two days instead of three to ship to New York City. Most of the major cities from here are Dallas/Ft. Worth, Houston, San Antonio, Denver, NYC, Long Island, areas of Northern New Jersey, states of Pennsylvania, and Kansas. In other parts of the country, the Feeder runs will be different of course. We had a lot of Package Drivers move up into Feeder a couple of months before Peak Season, now I understand why. We should be able to gain back some lost volume from our competitors, I see this as a great situation for us. Besides more Feeder jobs, I would think that more Hub people would be hired to make sure the dispatch times are met.:thumbup1: [/QUOTE]
