What many do not realize is other carriers do not have the capacity to handle any extra work.In takes time to expand their networks and hired the additional workers to fill those roles, if they can find them.I recall that the USPS was hiring during the 1997 strike.They gathered all job applicants in a large room that was overflowing with people.The first thing everyone was told that no UPS employees would be hire.That room quickly emptied out, leaving just a few.</blockquote>
