They can buy all the stock they want of the "B" shares, but as @Monkey Butt / @Old Man Jingles likes to point out the Casey trust shares will keep any outsider from getting control of UPS
The Real Question

OMG, thats really scary. I didn't know that, but I did just see that Warren Buffet just came out today and said he made a mistake in not investing in Amazon or Google. My question is when is enough enough? We are getting back to the days of big manopolyies. The Sprint T Mobil deal is scary as well.
Oh it’s definitely possible. However, highly unlikely. I think you will see these major stores like Walmart, Target, Macy’s and Lowe’s take on Amazon by offering online orders that they don’t normally have in stock. They too will be the intermediary.

They might not need to buy any B shares.

My Senior Picture
They already are.
Ordered something from Home Depot today that isn't in the store and is likely from a third party vendor.
Who's to say Walmart, Target, Macy's, Lowe's,....or even Home Depot won't contract their deliveries with Amazon's newly acquired infrastructure, formally known as UPS Small Package???
I would like to think this country's anti-trust laws would prohibit such a monopoly????....but I see no evidence of it.

They get a deal with UPS. UPS votes it’s class A shares to get er done.
Interesting. I hear the president mention Bezos every so often but have yet to see him make a move.

the tl;dr is they finally got rid of a certain Corporate manager, who overstepped way too far because he thought he knew better than IE and marketing (he didn't)
what's coming now is more the way it should have been rolled out in the first place; of course it'll be a mess to re-do it, but Monday will thank us

I don’t work at UPS anymore.
So, does this mean that my route that gets cut every Monday is coming back?

Big difference is the pilots union , including aviation dispatchers/control tower watch dogs are operated under "FEDERAL" laws , federal laws Trump state laws . Overall , regardless if it's a Republican House,Senate and President the circumstances have changed and,or different , including that Trump is 1st a business man ,has been the majority of his life . Just exercise common sense before jumping to conclusions please.

What is UPS mail innovations? This is an internal scam - non-union work as well. I still don't really understand what Mail Innovations is or does for us...

Mail innovations rents out empty space on UPS trailers to move packages from one city to another. A third party picks up the bags of mail innovation packages from UPS and takes them to the post office

I don’t know where you work but I work for UPS as an Air driver.
Which is governed under the Federal Department of Transportation DOT.
And we are union teamsters that are governed under the Federal National Labor Relations Board that follows the National Labor Relations Act.
That hears all legal matters pertaining to the language they cover not in state or county courts but Federal Courts.

I don’t work at UPS anymore.
As in, 75% of cut routes should come back?...or you since you don’t know anything about my building and volume the best you can give me is a “most likely”?
