UPS is claiming they eliminated their backlog of undelivered packages on Friday. Interestingly, FedEx isn't saying the same thing. I know that we aren't caught-up in my district. How about yours? This also lends credence to the theory that FedEx was actually a lot worse off than UPS this Peak.
1. Fedex isn't saying anything because UPS is taking all the heat. As a corporation why would you put yourself into a fight you're not in?
2. My station has been caught up and only feel behind 1 day and caught up shortly after; however, some a station is still a half day behind.
3. UPS can kiss my ass, they are lying, I just spent 1 hr 45 minutes in line Thursday to pick up a package I put a hold on. I put a hold on it because it had taken several joy rides in their vehicle, and it was due Monday. I had to put another package that was due Tuesday since it has gone on 2 joy rides. I will pick that one up tomorrow. My buddy works for UPS and says they are about 2.5 days behind and won't catch up until the end of this up coming week. They are pushing current packages through and slowly trickling in packages that are delayed. They see it as 1. lost revenue (For those who will get their shipping back, if any) and 2. Those are already 'lost customers' since they have been waiting for over a week.
P.S. I ship UPS and USPS more than Fedex, especially when it rains, I don't trust us when it rains.
