Actually, a a former Memphian (temporary), I can tell you that FedEx walks

FedEx might "walk on water" but the BIG DOG in the package business -
UPS - dwarfs all of its competition even when grouped together.

Some years ago when the drivers for UPS went on strike, a stat was
quoted that UPS handled 85% of this country's package business.

The USPS, FedEx, DHL and all the rest shared a mere 15%.

You gotta understand, in Memphis, either you, your cousin or your neighbor
works for FedEx. And, everyone lives under the lines of aircraft going in
and out. You gotta be loyal.
