[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1038583, member: 24302"] The problem is that FedEx Ground can, and does, charge considerably less than UPS for similar service. UPS can't match those prices because it's contractually bound to pay much higher wages and provide benefits(which are much better than Express employees get). As Ground takes business away with lower prices UPS will struggle to pay for everything. Something has to give for them but they're between a rock and a hard place because it'll be tough finding people willing to work like that for considerably less than current drivers make. If they were smart they'd stop current Ground drivers on the street and offer them those mid-$20's an hr jobs with some decent benefits. Let Ground become their farm team, lol!! [/QUOTE]
