So far they’ve just been dipping their toe in the water. The investor meeting clearly laid out the plan. Express is going to only handle priority deliveries. The network will change to make that happen. Results from last year don’t make any difference.
So a massive failure doesn't make s difference? Lol, ok.
Their plan is to save $2 billion annually with the change. If you think 50k packages being a day late during the pilot period is going to change the plan, there’s no arguing with that type of stupidity.
Look you just don't understand this management. It wouldn't matter if it was 1 million latest a day. They still will push it through regardless of failure. We have seen it the past 2 years at Express. Respone- failure. LMO- failure. Estar- failure. Network 2.0 will be the MOAF. Lol
You are making my point. What happened with LMO in the past doesn’t make a difference. Glad you worked that out for yourself.
Your making my point. It will be a colossal failure. There's nothing for me to work out as those of us that have been at Express for awhile no exactly how this is going to turnout. It's you that have to come to terms that this isn't what you think it will be. I have no heavy investment ridding on this like you. And couldn't care less if the company flops.
It’s going to work out with my company having more deliveries and pickups, which is good for revenue. I don’t see how corporate can hand over this much volume and squeeze contractors as badly as they are this year. They’ll have to make adjustments to maintain adequate service levels. Mid term outlook for my company just got a lot better.
It's LMO with some Ground/Express operations sharing the same building. This was covered at length yesterday during the meeting.
It’s more than just LMO and they plan on shutting down 100 stations. It didn’t sound like tinkering around the edges to me.
That would explain why you're so passionate about it.
I love a good story.
You don't see how bad it's going to be for both Express and Ground because your eyes can only see that paper. Keep chasin that paper and it's going to be a rude awakening. This company is desperate and it shows. A major change like this should have sent the stock soaring, yet most stockholders can see through this pile of crap.
I'm going solely by what they discussed during the Q&A yesterday. From that, what we now call LMO is really going to be kicked into a significantly higher gear and they plan to make it much easier to inject or remove Express packages into/from the Ground network, including residential overnight. I'll have to rewatch it to get more of the particulars, though something was mentioned about Ground having midday sorts and they went deeper in explaining how it would be determined which Express or Ground facilities would be closed and merged with others.
Correct. Most freight given to Ground was a handled like a hot potato, either sent back to Express or stuffed in drop-boxes.
RTDs when I left was already 33% contractors mostly doing bulk pickups employees still doing heavy weight pickups.
It's no a moot point. They would just make a complete switch either way if that were the case
Richard had a one off comment about passing all the response freight to a second preload at Ground. The whole thing lacked a lot of detail but you don’t get $2 billion in savings with minor adjustments.
