[QUOTE="Coldworld, post: 357670, member: 4777"] berfect brown, very true. Anyway, dhl with all of their troubles are actually still following our trucks around trying to get the edge on some of our accounts, this was happening up to a week ago. The biggest thing that burns me right now is of all of the cutting out of routes, and many of our customers are not appreciating our "floating" delivery times...should we be rock solid right now, really put the knife deeper into d.p??? Does anyone else see where this dhl thing is going?????I believe this is the start of a merger that will be happening sometime in the next few years. Ups would really like the logistical part of dhl, ie exel, and also the international volume and the flying lanes and landing rights into some of the more exotic places where ups is very small compared to dhl. And since ups would be purchasing a company overseas, there might not be that much trouble with anti-trust, not sure about anti trust in germany. This would be a logistical springboard, grow the international volume and the logistic and supply chain parts of the business....the both that are really making the money for ups, even right now with the weak economy.
