First he gets lost, then he gets heckled
Jürgen Schrempp has had a tough week. First, his own company's navigation system gave him the wrong directions and then at the shareholder's meeting he was greeted with heckles from the crowd. "Do you need to shoot yourself in the foot to prove you're a capable doctor?" was one of the responses from the attendees. Schrempp at least did not have to go through the "no-confidence" voting. Who would have guessed when the "merger of equals" happened, the Chrysler Group is the one bailing out Mercedes.

Mercedes took over Chrysler because they had a nice pile of cash to fund their future models. I suppose getting extra mileage ($$$) out of their old chassis's by dumping them onto Chrysler doesnt hurt either.
Seems like Chrysler was looked down on by those at Mercedes when their luck turned sour after the merger. Now the shoe is on the other foot. I wonder if those at Mercedes still have that attitude now.
