[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 79438, member: 484"] You guys are sick. Pure and simple. Monte, part of what you posted was very misleading and at best confusing. You posted Then you added Well lets see, 8% and 1% combine to give you a growth rate for express of 4.5% over all, not 9% as you stated. Then you added the 4% and claimed a 13% growth which was actually only a growth rate of 4.3 over all if all the sectors are equal, and since the adjusted rate was a 3.5 over all, each area must not have had all that equal a bearing in input. Personally I think a growth rate of 3.5 is a bit flat, but since the international growth was an 8, that is not really all that bad. it would seem that FDX as well as many others are putting their focus on international volume. As for Ties claims of "UPS cleaning FEDEX's" clock when it comes to volume, while I have not been privy to inside information, I know for a fact we have lost some volume to you, and you to us. As to who is the big winner of the trade offs, time will tell. Of all the would-be's, the postal service still has the largest market share that needs to be grabbed. One more thought. A rate is just that, what it costs you to get a package from point a to point B. The fuel surcharges were brought up, and I have my last few bills from FDX freight. They show a 16.9% fuel surcharge on the total cost of shipping. That would be 16.9% above the published rate. Tie, what are our fuel surcharges right now? d [/QUOTE]
