[QUOTE="Black_6_Leader, post: 861458, member: 9413"] First off, Surepost is a UPS Trademark [url]http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?friend=doc&state=4005:3fik87.2.1[/url] Everyone who said that it is a FedEx service, you need to open your eyes and ears to the bigger problem. FedEx is stealing your future; their SmartPost product already has some 1.43 MILLION packages per day that are totally invisible to the Teamsters. (Customers are demanding the lowest cost service; and to be honest, the Post office "final mile" is the lowest cost delivery (nationwide) there is). And SmartPost volume is going up like its attached to a rocket; it grew 48% in 2010; and 17% in 2011, according to FedEx's latest financial filings. Now a question for you; you use the term "that could be MY route" when you refer to the UPS Surepost volume. Why are you not worried about the 5.2 million packages every day (FedEx Ground, FedEx Home Delivery & FedEx SmartPost)??? The FedEx Ground volume is now equal to almost 1/2 of the ground volume delivered by UPS every day. That volume, if it was Teamster, would represent almost 100,000 Teamster jobs. Thousands and thousands of driving positions (pick-up & delivery and tractor trailer) and tens of thousands of package handlers. Just explain why you complain about UPS offering a service that their customers demand, and you are deaf, blind and dumb (speechless not intelligence) to the real threat to your route? [/QUOTE]
