FedEx sadly enough will own UPS, FedEx is more diversified they have ground , air, Kinko’s and went into other markets UPS was to lazy to move on.

Looks like I will be taking another $1000+ dollars off your companies bottom line this month. My brakes in Florida “gone” UPS cannot locate.

Fork, tires, stem, handlebars, seat GONE, never found way to go UPS
diversified? :rofl:

We have all that, and we do it under one name: UPS. FedEx has to split up their company just so that their employees dont unionize. If any of their branches expand to the size that you're talking about, those branches will have enough employees to have a union vote. They will most definetly become unionized, and their profits will go to crap. UPS is already unionized and we make twice the profit they do.

Anyways, I'm not being arrogant, I'm defending the company who pays me, gives me health insurance, and is helping my way thru college.

Sadly enough arrogance is going to be the down fall of UPS. Remember the strike of 1997? Well its catching up them now. DHL and FedEx, USPS are all eating away at UPS profits and will continue to do so.

You seem to think that IM anti union, No I want the best service for the best price something which UPS fails to give.

I never caught and shit from USPS or FedEx in the event of a claim. But UPS acts like its your fault they lost your package.

Has UPS ever heard of the “customer is always right” guess not, **** UPS

The strike of 97 was for worker's rights, and it barely put a dent in profits when it happened. Our profit margin has raised since then.

Furthermore, all of that is your opinion. What I know is that we must be doing something right, because we ship more expedited packages than fedex, usps, and dhl combined.

How do you say that the Strike is catching up now? Its not like the company is losing $. BTW Keep supporting DHL They are owned by the German post office which = German Govt. AN illegal practice that is being fought in court system. DHL is offering prices so low that they are losing $ hand over fist but the German Govt is there feeding $ into the company to pay the bills.

UPS always dumps stuff out on your doorstep and drives away. "Adult signature required" or not they just leave it. Asshats left a package containing 4 full-auto HK MP5 submachine guns sitting outside the front door of a police distributor my friend used to work for. They didn't get there by 5:00 pm on Friday when they closed and Monday morning the boss came in to open up and found them sitting there. Luckily nobody stole them or there would have been holy hell to pay with the BATF. As it was UPS got an earful for that one. The boss practically had a heart attack.

:slap: And the USPS is bankrolled by who there must be some reason the USPS is not private yet is taking some of the lions share in terms of shipping.
Yet in the one yes (1) claim I have ever had with the USPS they where not assholes about it they paid out the claim the same day I took in the letter.
Last time I looked USPS employees are paid very well.

Granted the USPS has no shareholders really does not make much of a profit if at all but they are owned by the the U.S. goverment

I thought the Post Office was the only government agency that actually MADE money. They are still my favorite carrier, just not good for heavy items.
