[QUOTE="scratch, post: 3622657, member: 1674"] All we hear are rumors and they change all the time. I don't think UPS really knows what's going in over there. We bid our routes at the first of the year and I was eyeing one that I thought would move according to earlier rumors. It would be a ten-mile drive to work instead of my present 27, but I really didn't care for the Fairburn route I was looking at. I'm on good terms with my center manager and he doesn't know right now what will move over there. One of the Region guys told me in December that 300-400 package drivers and about 400 feeder runs would run out of this building. We have four Hubs already running around Atlanta. They spent $3M on an automated small sort right before last Peak in my Forest Park Hub that I was told was just to test out for Honey Creek. It wasn't running right and contributed to our Hub disaster. We were told we left 1000 small sort bags in the building one morning. I drove right up to the front door of the new Hub one day while it was under construction a few months ago. The guard didn't look up from her cell-phone as I drove by her truck. I went on Google Maps awhile ago and looked up "1100 Fulton Industrial Blvd" which is the construction address at the intersection of Honey Creek Rd. Google has the location wrong, its about a mile North at the end of the North runway of Fulton County/Charlie Brown Airport. The FNN got that one wrong, they wouldn't want me to give the keynote speech! [/QUOTE]
