[QUOTE="local804, post: 52582"] I still am surprised to see volume going to another carrier.They say only the 1-5 lb parcels will be directed.If the driver is going to be in the area, he might as well deliver ALL the packages, not just the bigger ones. There are alot of fat cats in UPS since the IPO.
