[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 4092948, member: 198"] Yep. Only 1% of the volume and low revenues. So why continue to help Amazon? FedEx, like most companies, has to look at the big picture when making these decisions. Not whether or not rural drivers maintain the their volume. If new shippers are filling in the losses like you say then it won’t matter much for those specific drivers. And that’s what seems to have happened with UPS in my area right about the time Amazon started delivering. Monday’s are lighter than they used to be but UPS apparently started going after the smaller shippers a while back (probably in preparation for Amazon losses) so the rest of the week the volume is as if Amazon hadn’t pulled some. So, for the first time in a long time UPS is paying more attention to the little guys. [/QUOTE]
