WTF? UPS stock down 10 bucks today

eats packages

Deranged lunatic
Ever wonder why Amazon and Fed Ex are out making deliveries while we’re driving in to work? How come they can get out early? But with an 8:30 start time, we’re lucky to leave the building by 9.
Even rdo is a mess these days. How hard is it to take sequence #1 and put it on shelf 1, etc. mind boggling.

Stocks go up, stocks go down. Not worth losing sleep over it. People get conditioned to think that the stock market will always go up. But that’s not reality.

Because they are mostly working in 3-4 hour blocks and only have to pull up to the warehouse long enough to cram that four hours of work into their Honda Civics and WV Jettas. Search “Amazon Flex” on YouTube and you’ll see lots of videos that show how Amazon is able to pull that off.

Most of Amazon's money comes from AWS. Package is supported from other areas of income. Been that way for a long time. There's no question why or how Amazon got in the position they are in. Only way to stop Amazon is take them head on. Cutting staff, not fixing trucks, freezing pay or over dispatching wont do anything but put a band aid on a gun shot wound.

These are grayish blue Amazon fleet vans with logos. Rolling out around 7-7:30.

I hope someone can get a picture of a trampoline tied to the roof of a Civic some day.
