[QUOTE="But Benefits Are Great!, post: 430801, member: 15794"] Not being argumentative with you on purpose, here - this response would have been the same to anyone. You wrote "Gross revenues does not equal profit" "There is plenty of work out there if you want to do it for nothing" "It is not what you earn, it is what you keep" "Sure we lose money on each piece delivered, but we will make it up in volume" Each of these runs thru my head when I read about DHL going out, UPS benefiting from it. DHL customers are (were?) with DHL because they provided a service/service level that UPS will not/can not perform. They used DHL because they were cheaper. There ARE reasons they are not with UPS. If it was profitable, DHL would not be going out. The customers are those that UPS COULD NOT or WOULD NOT accomodate in the past. I have no experience with DHL in the US, but DHL International bends over backwards for customers on the pacific rim - service that UPS does for no-one. [/QUOTE]
