[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1386554, member: 198"] This sounds like an attempt to counter FedEx Ground HD. FedEx is advertising on their website (or were a few days ago) that their ground service is faster to more areas than UPS ground. Their HD service is the primary factor in that because Saturday service is an option where as the same package would sit in a UPS building over the weekend until Monday unless the customer/shipper is willing to pay extra for Saturday delivery. From what I understand HD doesn't deliver on Tuesdays so I'm not sure how they make up for the shortfall that happens when an order is placed and the package is still in transit on a saturday. That could cause the package to be delayed until Tuesday. Well, what happens on Monday? Do they give it to FedEx Ground? [/QUOTE]
