Shifting Trump tariffs have created a nightmare for UPS, as thousands of packages from overseas pile up at its hubs while they await customs clearance.
Honestly, with the current government, making investments like that make no sense. The rules and regulations can change any day without reason. A tariff set up to “create manufacturing jobs” (the usual excuse) can vanish before any company has gathered their board to think about expansion…
And ideally they’d give a shit about doing their jobs well. Obviously there are systemic and also these more acute issues at play. There are also undeniably people who work there, at FedEx and at the USPS who could not care less, and that’s a shame.
Ideally they would have been given some time to ramp up the process to do that.
They had time. They didn’t want to spend money on it.
