You should join a "Woman's" Forum coz all you seem to do is gossip.
Either way you really should get a life - you have too much time on your hands if you fill it with searching details on people and listening to and passing on gossip. Although, of course, you probably have a vested interest in this whole scenario, after all your joining date is suspiciously close to the big fall out mmmmmmmm You are doing a good "smoke and mirrors" yourself and the sharper individuals reading this forum will see right through you.
This is the worst recession for decades, the Euro has swung by about 25% in the last 18 months hitting importing companies heavily, car companies are being bailed out left right and centre, countries are going bankrupt for god sake let alone machinery companies.
Silent Bob got it right, the sales people are the same and apparently their sales were down 80% last year - whose fault is that? Hardly someone retired for almost 2 years.
Silent Bob has a good lean on this situation, the sales people are happily skipping around the country blaming anyone but themselves for the demise of MUK. Still maybe they will be found out for what they are when the NEY partnership develops.
MW have been promoting BUY DIRECT FROM US in Italy for months and then out of the blue announce a merger with Ney, a contradictory action or perhaps just "smoke and mirrors"? Perhaps the sales people and technicians of MW GB should watch their backs, as maybe NEY will be MW's way forward?!?
Ikoevski - you will get this from Italy if you contact them. Good luck, at least you don't seem to be self absorbed in gossip and are trying to actually get something useful from the forum, good luck.
