BrowntailWhale , your arrogance and ignorance are revealing. You may feel that your company deserves congratulations for purchasing a failing operation in a financially difficult and demographic time bomb that is Europe , but you may discover that UPS recieves nothing but lawsuits, EU Anti trust misery , and compounding merger related " costs. " in return. The money spent on lawyers and consultants will be eye- watering. While UPS / TNT are busy developing " synergies " , the other logistics providers will be busy poaching all those valuable customers. The real prize is a developed Asian/Chinese network , which as we all know , is at the whim of the Chinese Communist Party and can be " reconfigured " at short notice. America`s empire , along with it`s moral authority , business acumen and respect in the world is unfortunately in decline. Good luck , you`re going to need it.
