[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 1202952, member: 18708"] Which is why most would agree, try not to pay attention to the unrealistic "on-paper" data UPS comes up with. They're using the same modeling methods used in other tech industries for their "forecasts". I try to think of it in this way; weather forecasters can't accurately depend on the weather models to construct a forecast and similarly UPS can't accurately depend on their own modeling for real-world honest results. Yet they insist on using the "best-case" assimilations of their data and applying it to the real world in much of the operations aspect. No weather forecaster could afford to run their business or career strictly using computer-based modeling. Grim and self-destructive use of technology. [/QUOTE]
