[QUOTE="PobreCarlos, post: 748002, member: 16651"] Actually, I believe that the company began serving the entire U.S. (stablishing the "golden link") more than 30 years ago...and that - outside of air, and aspects of international - the massive spurt of company growth was pretty much over 20 years ago. For example: by then (20 years ago) the company had already been in Canada for 15 years, and Germany close to that length of time. As for "no other competition", just where do you think FedEx was 20 years ago? Heck, I heard a Teamster official brag more than THIRTY years ago that FedEx would be organized "within a matter of months". Needless to say, they're as far away from being organized by the Teamsters now as they were (more than) thirty years ago. Anyway, I'd take exception concerning the opportunities available now are that much less compared with twenty years ago. Thirty or thirty-five years ago? Probably. 10 years ago (following the bail-out which was a result of the IPO)...sure. But twenty? Nope. [/QUOTE]
