FTA: “According to the FAZ, “40,000 jobs are under threat in the United States,” of which “20,000 are directly linked to Deutsche Post and as many again to the US partners.”

That is a LOT of people to be without jobs.

DHL is union in only a few pockets, but they are mostly non-union. It wasn’t their problem. UPS is 100% unionized. FedEx is not unionized.
