Re: Damn who's next
so are they just cutting international shipping? im hoping this means they are going to continue offering cheap rates for shipping in the US
DHL's profitable freight and supply chain-services businesses in the U.S., which employ about 25,000 people, won't be affected by the cuts.

i work for a delivery company, so called the largest privately owned delivery company, and just on sunday i drove a strait truck 180mi for 4 boxes of ----. thats like 20 gal of fuel, i dont know how long they can go on with this ----.

Fedex works great guys and half the time they dont weight your packages so go 3-4 pounds lighter on a 15 pound box and save yourself a couple bucks
Fedex has fucked up but for my volume I do with them their solid. Their tracking system sucks ***** but who gives a ---- if it shows up in once piece thats all that matters
