Default UBER for Packages = Amazon Flex

https://flex.amazon.com

Interesting concept....

How quickly can Amazon get an army of drivers in all the cities willing to use their own car and get paid $18-$25 per hour? I'd say pretty quick -- ALL of the fast food workers in America will be signing up to be either full time or part time drivers for Amazon and most would double their current pay.

So, Amazon leasing 20 767's and using the Uber model for its delivery drivers -- not a bad plan. Time will tell if it succeeds.
