[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 2631550, member: 11315"] They are not going to use robots to deliver the packages. They WILL use a self-driving vehicle to park in front of the house and pay a person half the driver rate to take package from truck to house. That is UPS's endgame, to eliminate "skilled" positions. The auto industry laughed when "robots" were going to weld and manufacture cars. They don't laugh anymore. Inside the hubs, as long as the label is facing up, machines can sort a package from trailer to package car easily. The infrastructure is going to cost UPS billions and won't make stockholders happy for awhile. [/QUOTE]
