[QUOTE="InsideUPS, post: 1023393, member: 31414"] Just to clarify for those that may misinterpret my views on SurePost, the CONCEPT of SurePost is a wise decision on the part of our UPS Corporate leadership. The ABUSE of SurePost is what I am against. While it makes perfect business sense to let the U.S. Postal Service make final delivery on (Remote) SOME small packages in RURAL areas, it makes NO sense to give the USPS packages which are in URBAN areas. For example, many times our drivers have stops for the same customer in which a SurePost package is being delivered to. Although I don't have an MBA from Wharton, I believe it would make more business sense to keep the profits of delivering such packages rather than sharing them with our competitor. Our center statistics do not show that SurePost has preserved full-time driver positions. Since the inception of SurePost, we have had a 30% reduction in the number of full-time drivers. Routes have been expanded, overtime is at an all time high, and quality and service is at all time low. As far as the socks... OT.. [/QUOTE]
