[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 571971, member: 1664"] [B][COLOR=DarkGreen]Yes, it is a very disturbing observation, that is being ignored. The U.S., and the world, is in economic downturn, or at best in a state of flux. Now is not time for UPS to lose the core value of service. When business's are struggling, we (UPS) should redouble our efforts to keep them in business through servicing their needs,not ours. Gaining their volume is not the same as servicing their needs. This recession will pass, in time. 2,3 maybe 10yrs from now, to full growth recovery. When the tide turns and all ships are lifted, the tightest ship may be fast "aground", because it set it's sails (pun) high, in a lowering tide. Another metaphor, -( or just a very visual image)-, One of the body casts made at Pompeii is of a man gathering coins that he spilled while the ash slowly fell on him. His body cast showed he was grasping at a coin just inches away from his grasp. If he would have just kept on walking and helping others around him along the way to safety, he might have made many multiples of that coin in the coming years. Sorry dannyboy, for doing a Readers Digest condensed version of your post. It just seemed to be very pertinent. [/COLOR][/B] [/QUOTE]
