I too use Fed Ex and find their rates to be better than UPS.
Union shop, so what do you expect? Just put in a day and get the check.

I have noticed that a lot of stuff I order now comes by fedex. Perhaps the shippers have had too many problems with ups? There should be a strict no tolerance policy on tomfoolery on the handling of fragile items.
