[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 4761999, member: 198"] It makes since that they’d had a better 2020 than us as far as volume increases goes. Many shippers were struggling so they did what companies normally do in that situation and cut costs. We’re usually more expensive so FedEx got the nod. FedEx has been slowly catching up for years. When I went through driver training back in the early 2000s corporate had started pulling salaried non-sales employees out of their positions and moving them into sales temporarily because FedEx had undercut us on so much volume the year before. They’ve definitely took a huge bit out of the market share that used to be ours. And they did the smart thing by ditching Amazon (like all Americans should do) and went after profitable accounts. It’s almost like UPS corporate wants to lose business. [/QUOTE]
