[QUOTE="Former Brown Blood, post: 122216"] I agree with both sides of this argument...I worked for UPS for 14 years until I resigned from my business manager position in April. The vets are right...UPS is a terrible place to work at the moment. It used to be different, until upper management got greedy and went public. Now the company makes decisions based on how the decisions will affect the stock price. It's true; there are thousands of good, no great, people at UPS. Unfortunately, upper management is forcing most of those good people to be jerks in the name of production and cost savings. The rookie is also right...if you don't like UPS then leave. Life's too short to deal with the 60 hour weeks. The money is good, but money is not everything. I'm living proof that there is life after UPS. I took advantage of their tuition reimbursement program, got my MBA and got the heck out of there. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you folks that I left behind in the dungeon. My suggestion is to start saving your money right now. Start preparing for the inevitable downfall of a company that is so hell bent on saving a dime that it would sacrifice every employee it has to keep the stock price up. [/QUOTE]
