变异的快递服务——从UPS中国想到的

      很久没有更新blog了，想不到重新上来的第一篇不是MOSS技术方面的心得，也不是获得微软MVP大奖后的惊喜（当然我是很惊喜的，只不过没有用文字记录），而是对UPS到中国后的一些做法的思考：
     获得了微软的MVP大奖，欣喜之余就是到微软内部员工的商店上，去消费150美元的购物券，顺便享受一下免费的快递服务，尽管我选择了FedEx，但是实际最后的快递业务都是由UPS提供（具体原因就要问微软了），第一次购买的包裹从7月六日订购到7月11日左右收到，期间我就追踪了一下，UPS从收到信息、上门取货开始，第三天就货到北京，我有点佩服外企的办事效率，毕竟美国和我们在不同的半球上啊，下来的事情就比较搞笑了，从货到北京到递送到我手，居然要4天的时间，北京到洛阳的距离，难道比微软总部到北京还远？
    第二次购情况类似，第三天货到北京——11号中午，可是12号我也没有收到电话，下午打电话一问，周一才能派送，原因是周末不上班！我晕！国际性的快递公司，到了中国后，居然周末不递送！这还叫快递公司！我就想不通了，同样是UPS，我周五定的货，周一就到了北京，难道美国人不知道休周末？不知道FedEx的亚洲一日达的承诺，让UPS中国会有什么样的感想？我也不知到有没有机会，体验一下FedEx的服务！
