(297 posts)He said the company makes their profit from deliveries to businesses. Delivering house to house, especially in rural areas is actually a loss for them. Every few years they sign a contract with Amazon, and, Amazon no longer wants to pay UPS what they are requestig for their deliveries. He said they have also floated only doing residential deliveries once every other day in the past.

(780 posts)More "winning" -- all thanks to the Turd and his insane economics, Turdonomics, tariffs policies. Nice choice, Turd, as we flip flop between economic Recession and Stagflation -- all thanks to every Republican Nazi MAGAt who voted for this insane economics. Thanks, again, MAGAts! Enjoy your $9.00 Six-Pack of beer! Getting drunk on Friday and Saturday and Sunday is going to get pretty expensive, huh, MAGAts?

Bend over folks. He has taken control of everything and ignoring strong worded letters.
