[QUOTE="705red, post: 416888, member: 5229"] Please dont start the dramatics here with the typical swinging dick with a tie mentatlity! Your worried about fedex taking this volume because you expect us to believe that the customer came up with tis idea all by themselves. The customer said i want to use ups ground because my driver av8 said you can help us. But you know i want the greay semis to drive my ground packages from point a to pint b, BS! How come when union employees bring up ideas to grow the business you dont listen but your quick to subcontract out our work? Heres an idea! If i go into a 10 story office building for 5 pick ups, why cant we combine all the customers in this same building and give them all the same rate for shipping? You treat lets say 25 companies as 1 and calculate their shipping rate as you would a bigger shipper, and instantly we gain more packages. This is what fedex does and this is why its hard for us to gain more business. Now instaed of spending 15 minutes for a dozen or so packages you are now spending 30 mins and pulling out hundreds. By the way routes are built on stops not pieces, but im sure you knew that already! [/QUOTE]
