Nothing to worry about here. QVC has their very own fleet lined up and ready to rock n roll.

There is no way it's going to be the same as the Covid mess.  Think about it, UPS isn't delivering massive cargo shipments...

UPS has 500,000 employees worldwide, delivers 24M packages per day and has 125,000 ground vehicles ahd more than 500 aiircraft.

Who is going to pick up that slack?  😳

Add in that UPS delivers a HUGE number of FedEX and Amazon packages because they can't handle the load (do people even know about these contracts?) I don't think they'll be able to help much.

[shoekitty]

Yes, many have switched to fedex

Well just in case i ordered what i needed from Costco and got my cat and guinea pig food stocked up.

It'll be just another reason to raise prices, just like during Covid. Of course, even when things get back to normal, the prices will continue to rise.

A UPS strike will stall everything whether it's from vendors or manufacturers, retailers, etc. It'll have a huge impact on the economy.

I'm not a "the sky is falling" type of person.  I'm enjoying my summer and my life as it is NOW.  IF UPS strikes, I'll deal with the repercussions if/when they happen.

Exactly.   We all survived the shipping delays during the COVID crisis, if there is a UPS strike, we'll survive that too.
