Greed and collusion will get someone into trouble sooner or later. This company has made a ton of $. Anyone can come to UPS and get a job. Anyone with a work ethic. And they can make $70,000 a year or more. Yet UPS has trouble retaining employees. We have given concessions for years even though the profit at UPS continues to rise. I don't know how you spin the facts below. Maybe you have your own alternative facts. You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts. Both FedEx and United Parcel Service have done right for investors over the past 15 years. More importantly both companies have strong long-term growth runways that make them attractive dividend growth investments. BUT at a fundamental level, UPS is hands down the superior company. On the other hand, FedEx is the superior growth story and has a lot of low-hanging fruit when it comes to improving its operations.
