    Wow, I think you got very lucky! I was told they hire 1 person off the street to 5 people they promote within (union rules). I know someone that has been a small package delivery person (those brown step vans) for them for about 6 years, just to get the opportunity to bid on what they call a "feeder driver" position. The last time I heard, he still had one person ahead of him in seniority.

    That is UPS Package Delivery he is talking about UPS freight different rules apply. UPS will most likely start laying off drivers in their package division starting the first of the year.

    IIRC since DHL has ceased ground operations in North America, would that not that mean an opportunity for both UPS and FedEx Ground to expand?

    Will just have to wait and see, UPS did not do their normal Christmas preperations this year hardly any rental trucks, did not hire alot of helpers across the board started laying off people inside already. Word is at several buildings cutting back on feeder drivers. The volume gained from DHL I think will help a little but not much, depends how much Brown can pick up.
