Not for you, you've contracted for 900 p&d stops daily. Sit back and watch the implosion.

Correct

Correct

Have a Great Holiday Season. You have a lot of springtime white lines to focus on anyway.

True. Can never start focusing on the important things so enough.

Correct.

Have always been funding issues, not just the amount, but where the pension money was invested. With the statement you made, I conclude that every Ups future and current pensioner should be skeptical about UPS's ability to perform.

You would be mistaken.

UPS has held up their end of the bargain.

 

[It will be fine]

A glance at today's numbers suggests that the beginning edge of the storm has just arrived.

My guys ended up doing fewer stops than the same Saturday last year.

You took my post as a hit which it wasn't. Was just thinking it will be extremely hard for Ups to keep their end of the deal in some future, uncertain year. God bless all you guys, I hope it doesn't happen.

The best thing would be for the company to withdraw from all of the troubled pension funds.

I thought they had, maybe misinformed. Nonetheless, I still think the tipping point will hit.

Pension funding issues.

As we saw with the airline bankruptcies when the pension funds were taken over by the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation, benefit wise pays about 60% of what was supposed to be paid it is cause for concern if the same were to happen with UPS but I didn't think that it was as troubled as you implied.

I implied nothing, I was only looking forward and drawing a conclusion. My view is (not implying) UPS will have, in an uncertain year problems paying pensions and will have to do what is necessary to stay solvent. The solvency of UPS currently is not in question, the future is in question. Only my opinion.

UPS has been actively diversifying to ensure that they remain viable for years to come.

Wish the best for all UPS'ers, I've got no dog in the hunt, only think a huge pension correction will come. Meaning current pensioners (if in their lifetime) and future pensioners.

They tried to hire temps at one of my terminals. They couldn't find anyone either. There will be pickups that I'll decline when they're over 200 pieces that just won't get picked up. I said I'll do my best but everything isn't going to fit on the trucks and my people's time is better spent knocking out deliveries.

Schedule K money is nice but if I can't afford proper staffing/vehicles the rest of the year getting some extra cash for a few weeks just won't cut it.

I'm available for $2k/week if you supply me a runner. Over 20 years experience with over a third of that as a swing!

With the runner you'd have to do about 300 stops/day 6 days/week for that to make me money. And keep the runner under 50 hrs/week.

If you check with DIDO, you'll see....my generation is only concerned with ourselves, and your ability to make money is irrelevant to us.
