What you did was take a statement about telecommuting and transform it into a
worst case scenario using a business that is in NO WAY related to mere
telecommuting.

I didn't forget them - I ignored them. Fed-Ex uses much the same schedule as
UPS. And DHL has dropped its residential business ... so, would not be
delivering/picking up at non-commercial locations.

I'm not into a problem. It's your flight of fancy that telecommuting requires
semi-trucks to deliver the minimal paperwork required or the enhanced telephone
lines and internet access.
 
I submit that you did a Ross Sauer and jumped into the deep end of this without
a flotation device and are floundering about, splashing a lot of water and just
trying to stay afloat. The end result is still the same ... you're all wet on
this. And will be until you compare apple with apples.

ENJOY!!!
