[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 554761, member: 22880"] Unless this has happened in the last two weeks, the software in the Express PPad won't recognize a Ground bar code. I usually demonstrate to customers who want me to pick up their Ground with Express that the machine goes "beep" with Express bar codes, and no "beep" and a blinking scan light with Ground barcodes - followed sometimes by a warm boot. Most Couriers don't realize all it will take is an update in software, and Express bar codes can be read by Ground equipment. You can bet this is already in the works, if not already done. When Ground handhelds are given the software to recognize Express barcodes, the end of the full time Courier is near. If Fred can hold off the RLA status change, Bbsam may just get his wish and become a mini-Fred with his own fleet of Green painted trucks. He can tell his employees how much he values them and he believes in prioritizing his business outlook with a people first, service second, profit third philosophy. He can offer them yearly pay increases of about 2 percent or so and have an internal newsletter come out every quarter reminding his employees how lucky they are to work for him. He can institute an "Advance to Superior Service" program (***), where his more ambitious employees can ensure the remainder are being as productive as possible while he looks to expand his venture into foreign markets. All things are possible under the IC model with Fred at the top... [/QUOTE]
