||That's total baloney.

||You obviously know nothing about the printing industry.

||Look at "little" companies like RR Donnelley and Quebecor, to

||Consolidation has been happening in the printing business for years.

|First, I'd like to observe your post as a lame-ass troll.... but, I'll
|calmly respond. That seems important to some....
|
|Your response is emotional, not fact-based and hardly calm.
|
|
|RR Donnelley.... what can I say? This is straight from their web site:
|"We provide integrated onsite-offshore Business Process Outsourcing
|services to Fortune 500 companies and to professional services firms
|through our operations in North America, Europe, India, Sri Lanka and
|the Philippines. Our judgment-based outsourcing solutions address a
|variety of needs for vertical segments that include financial
|services, publishing, manufacturing, transportation,
|telecommunications, healthcare, advertising, investment banking and
|more."

|
|A rose by any other name???? What does "offshore" mean to you?
|
|Hmmmmm, the one book plant in Ohio does over 500 million dollars a year
|on it's own.
|
|One plant that's 1.3 MILLION square feet and 1800 employees.
|Actually, they are so big, they have their own zip code - 44888
|
|RRD has a lot more in the USA, look it up.
|
|
|Quebecor? What has that got to do with anything? Their "global
|presence" doesn't even include a location in the US. They don't even
|make a pretext of being "ONshore!"
|
|Your research is flawed. There is a giant magazine plant in Midland
|Michigan and that's just off the top of my head.
|Quebecor has a strong US presence.
|
|
|Your posting address shows West Monroe, LA. I used to call frequently
|on a printing outfit there - Manville. If you are anywhere near there,
|you must know the story of Manville = Riverwood = Riverwood Holding
|(which is now "...a global packaging company..." ).
|
|I live in Cleveland, not Cleveland LA.
|
|
|As I calmly noted, a lame-ass troll devoid of any truth.... but you
|knew that.
|
|I can trade potshots, but I won't.
|
|You have no idea of what you're talking about.

Troll...... plonk.



Is this Wally the dumbest guy to ever post here you've plonked, or some
other Wally?
