[QUOTE="cynic, post: 1200742, member: 48621"] Ok, so weather is no longer the issue - it's the Central Region alleged being held hostage by "Fred"? Given Worldport's 5.2 million sq. feet, multiple-billions of UPS investor's dollars spent to build, UPS's logistics models in place to schedule the air fleet and packages, along with the sweat off our backs to generate US$4+ billion in profits for UPS last year, I'm not seeing UPS building another hub within 3 hours flight time of Worldport. I understand what you're driving at, but at the end of the day it is just business and it doesn't matter if it's Tom, Dick, Harry, or "Fred" to UPS. All of us are replaceable cogs in the system. Even when it seems personal, it is not. They do not care about anything other than their EPS to report to Wall Street. If fuel were not so expensive, I could see them building another Worldhub in northern Mexico in a trade free zone and use local labor to unload/sort/load. [/QUOTE]
