I saw a commerical for a new nationwide delivery service that looks like it will be competing with fed ex and ups.
That would be non other than DHL. They just recently merged with Airborne and have begun to increase their domestic presence. I've always liked FedEx best and use them as much as I can in business, but UnitedRX leaves me no other choice but UPS. FedEx beats UPS hands down on at least two counts. FedEx 2 Day air packages usually make it to the hub next day and they're also open on Saturdays so if you miss a Friday delivery attempt you're not stuck until Monday. UPS is closed on Saturday (yep, I missed receiving my meds once on a Friday and had one of THOSE weekends) and a 2 Day air shipment always takes the "scenic route" and NEVER arrives next day. Oh well, I'd be willing to give DHL a shot at least once to see how they do. And as far as the UPS guy pounding on the door and yelling "FBI", that's just plain bizarre! Man, I'd rattle that cage as hard as I could. NOT funny at all!
