[QUOTE="ironylife, post: 58312"] d, Im not disagreeing with you...k. I just think ups gets too selective when it comes to business. As you probably know, sometimes what happens is that fedex takes an account and looses money on them for awhile, sure thats a gamble. Then they start asking for other business from that shipper...ie, other plants, or buildings in other states, other branches worldwide....etc. Now they have the whole companies business, worldwide, and are making good profits. This is what we need to start doing, not thinking of the small picture, but the whole pie....which I think is ironic since ups likes to look into the future 5-10 years ahead on other matters.I have been told that we can usually meet or beat fedex prices, depending on the customer. I also think we need to start servicing our small to medium customer base better...they have fallen to the wayside. [/QUOTE]
