[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3559055, member: 14596"] OK. Fedex, according to their website does about 14 million pieces a day. Their peak day almost twice that. Lets say just 21 million for peak day. UPS does about 20M per day. So Fedex goes into peak mode in a strike, they can pick up roughly 7 million pieces a day. The post office does even more than UPS does in delivery, but they don't have the backbone network for huge amounts of packages, so lets only give them 4 million. That's still over half the UPS volume and that is only 2 competitors. It does not include the Lazerships, On-Track, Amazon Delivery, Uber delivery and all the rest that currently exist and will pop up to try and take the business in a strike. I don't think they can get it all, at least not right away. But their ability to ramp up and take a large chunk of it is much greater than it was in 1997. [/QUOTE]
