[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 566317, member: 14596"] Hard to say on the loss of jobs, but probably not. My reason for saying this is that these packages are shipped mainly on price, not service. Basic allowes them to ship with partial UPS reliability and a lower price. It is more than likely that were there no Basic service, most of these packages would go purely USPS. It also allows us to get customers who only have a PO box. We are prevented by law from delivering to PO boxes, so if folks had only a PO box and not a physical address, there is no way UPS could get that business, with Basic service, we can at least get a piece of that revenue, and therefore a piece of that work(jobs).
