Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

Often, the racist card is pulled in an attempt to shut discussion down. When they rush there, you know someone has hit a nerve of truth and they cannot allow that.

I think the cost of Saturday air alone surpasses what they make on the ground deliveries.
But now we got rid of the two tier wage
And you were paying me top dollar to be unproductive on Monday
The company really needs to figure this out

the package savings of doing that are utterly obliterated by the added feeder costs; if there was no competition pressure we would NEVER do weekends outside of peak

Apparently some buildings aren’t doing Saturdays based on amount of volume with the number of routes going out.
It might happen here but all the low seniority drivers are too lazy to ask for 8 and even more scared to file the grievance for it.
When that starts to happen center manager might get the go to cancel Saturdays and go back to m-Friday.
Saturday should be next Day Air products and an extra fee if you want to ground package on a Saturday

Maybe companies who get actual deliveries on Saturday for business pay for the extra day of service? Majority of our business are loaded onto trucks for Monday delivery because they aren’t open. But pretty dumb on the amount of Saturday air that gets sent to businesses on Saturday and they still have to be attempted.

That's sort of what I always thought it would have looked like. Basically, air plus premium Saturday ground service for customers within the one day shipping range.
When I used to work on Saturdays during Peak
We had some of Monday's work loaded on our car
After I did my Saturday deliveries I will look for businesses that is closed on Mondays and deliver them on that Saturday
They could also deliver more sure posts on Saturdays and Mondays to help balance the routes out
That a big misconception. If the company approached it like chickfila does. It would have gained us more volume. A lot of people don't like seeing delivery trucks 7 days on the road..
He was facing it because he wanted the cia gone, and the dollar to not be involved with the central bank.

But if the competition isn’t charging then probably hard for brown to if business throw a fuss about it.

I think all these companies overestimate how quickly people want their packages. Especially now that so many people get multiple deliveries a day, so you think Emily cares that her paper towels on monthly re-order spent 1 day instead of 3 in transit.

people care but probably not enough to pay extra for it
i think if there were true price discovery on Amazon's model not hidden by a subscription fee, we'd be back to pre-weekend service models just about everywhere
