[QUOTE="705red, post: 416496, member: 5229"] My concern here is i have seen this before maybe not on as big of a scale as ups, but we all remember Conway freight. What was it about 4 or 5 years ago they locked out their employees on labor day and moved all their business to a sister company ccx resulting in about 10,000 union jobs being eliminated. If you cant see the writing on the wall then shame on you, ups has always said they don't make money on the ground service yet its their most common package. We have seen dhl come into america thinking they could take over the world in small package only to realize there's not alot of money in ground, however we are able to service our customers by delivering grounds and airs together and picking up all of their small packages by the same driver. As far as i know we are all just worker ants on this forum, hourlies that do the grunt work and management in every day operations. None of us are up the food chain enough to know exactly why our reps are selling this service but there has to be a good reason. [/QUOTE]
