[QUOTE="TarAndFeathers, post: 5402890, member: 97333"] In a way perhaps that would be true, and it would be beneficial. However more volume also means more of a push on production, and when that happens that is when more problems come up. The need to reach unrealistic PPH levels, this desire to maximize PPH leads to half of a hub's volume being pushed out in the last hour and a half, which leads to a longer preload (which can be seen as good for PT employees), and a later start for drivers. I think cutting Amazon would be good enough to eliminate the aforementioned issues in the OP, but it wouldn't hurt or take away Union jobs, UPS has plenty of business accounts where even if Amazon is cut, it wouldn't hurt as much as some may think. But there isn't much of a reason why we should help Amazon especially seeing how Anti-Union Amazon is. [/QUOTE]
