If you were depending on a delivery service that didn’t leave items at your door without knocking, or require your delivery be dropped at a local business, you’re going to be sad today.
German logistics giant Deutsche Post announced Monday it would cut 9,500 jobs at its DHL Express operations in the United States.
Chief Executive Officer Frank Appel said DHL’s domestic air and ground business in the United States would be closed effective Jan. 30.
Unless you are expecting a package from overseas (or shipping one) you aren’t going to see the DHL truck pull up in your driveway anymore.
It’s a shame too, because the DHL guys who have delivered stuff to our house are much more polite with said deliveries, oh, and they don’t leave packages worth hundreds of dollars sitting on my porch without ringing the doorbell).
