[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3005928, member: 14596"] OK, but how many days prior did that surepost package come through the system? Are you sure it was just the day before? You give a lot of credit to the Post office if you think it NEVER takes them more than the next day to deliver the surepost. Also to the preload. A surepost put in the wrong bag would naturally take more than one day as it would wind up in the wrong post office. Also, did the customer that shipped the package you delivered, correctly upload their shipping data to UPS when they shipped it? If not, that package would not be in the forecast and the system would not have known it was coming when the surepost package came through. UPS went into the surepost bit kicking and screaming only AFTER FDX started smartpost and started taking away not just the supper cheap smartpost packages, but also started to use that service as leverage to get regular higher revenue packages from our customers. You are clearly looking for things to gripe about. Seriously, you think the company wants to eliminate jobs no matter what it costs them? Really, you actually think that if someone went to the board of directors and said "hey, we can get rid of all your employees. Course it will cost you all your revenue and you'll be out of business and all the millions in UPS stock you all individually hold will be worthless, costing you tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars". Their response would be "Great, I don't care how much it costs me, I just want to eliminate jobs!" I have a hard time believing a functioning adult actually believes that. [/QUOTE]
