[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 633831, member: 12570"] There is some truth behind your sarcasm. I have found it more difficult to secure new volume as our price point hinders our ability to be competitive with FedEx (package) and our freight competitors. For example, I deliver and pickup from our local college bookstore and was trying to get their text book returns (3100 lbs). We put a bid in and were underbid by [B]1/2[/B] by A. Duie Pyle, a LTL company. I think this, along with a number of other economic issues, will be addressed in 2013, and not in the manner most of us are used to. [/QUOTE]
