[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4091452, member: 63706"] Agree, the higher the stop density the better the chance of profiting. It sounds like express is having issues with making money in extended areas, and they can't send those packages through fedex ground. If we're in the area already, we win. Seems like this could prove to be a pretty big flaw in FedEx's business model. I'm in town, but my delivery area has shrunk significantly. We are running around 10% more routes on a regular basis, and the center manager is requesting more drivers. This time of year we usually have several of the lowest drivers laid off for extended periods. Whether UPS is making any money off it, I guess we'll see when the Q2 numbers are posted. [/QUOTE]
