alt Hacker NewsWhile this seems like the perfect synergy with a company that has too many branches and not enough business, those branches are also tiny. I'd bet employees are not enthusiastic about becoming UPS.
Becoming Radio Shack / Microcenter, as far as 3D Printing and DIY electronics, seems like it intersects with their target audience more, but they're also probably pretty short on space for that.

At the same time, most of the employees at my local UPS store have openly expressed a lack of enthusiasm about becoming Amazon returns employees.
yeah, their shops arnt sized to do much more than UPS style package movement.
I dont see it as a good value, but it's the only thing I see as a synergy. Otherwise it's just more garbage capitalism.

Employee enthusiasm isn’t really much of a factor. For better or worse, in the event of significant change of the brick & mortar day to day operations then employee continuity & institutional knowledge is even less of an actual strategic asset than the minimal treatment it already gets in consideration.
