That’s what I’m thinking too. I’ve got almost 30 years in so I’m thinking I’ll be gone before things dramatically change but I am concerned for low seniority employees.

If our management is supersmart like Apple people, we would have the whole website infrastructure where SMB can register an account and have their products listed on a site similar to Amazon. We would handle warehousing, shipping, customer services, and credit card processing for a price! The only thing UPS doesn't own is the products itself.
But it will be a separate company because it only costs Amazon 1.50 bucks to ship a box where UPS is 10 bucks or more? I'm just guessing here...someone has to find this info.

- Most third-party sellers using the relaunched service pay at least 30% less compared to the list rate at other leading carriers, Ripley MacDonald, VP of Amazon Shipping, said in a Wednesday session at Amazon Accelerate. Amazon Shipping offers delivery on orders placed on Amazon.com, sellers’ websites and other channels.
- “Plus, we charge fewer fees,” MacDonald added. “No residential surcharges, no extra fees for weekend deliveries.”

Completely agree, my fear is that it’s too late. Our only hope would to team up with Walmart. It appears that at this point they’re the only company that is successfully competing against Amazon.

I remember when Walmart was our account. They opened a super center out off the highway on my route. Was delivering 150-200 pieces a day.

I preloaded AC units and those Ninja pressure cookers for Northlake once. Hated dispatch since (5 trucks with those handheld scanners)

What does Walmart use for shippers now? They don't deliver their products like Amazon.

They have their own service, but they use FedEx for everything else.
And as far as I’m concerned, FedEx can have them because when we had them they had delivery windows for their dock that were ridiculous and difficult.
