[QUOTE="randomUPSISer, post: 646173, member: 24399"] I'd say it also has a lot to do with UPS managing by divisor. All our upper management seems to know how to do these days is "cut cost". We aren't doing anything to gain that market share back, or to grow. (at least relative to our competitors efforts) I doubt its the pilots, or ESPECIALLY the mechanics. (there really just arent enough mechanics to affect the bottom line even with them getting paid as great as they are ) When UPS starts taking care of its customers and SPENDING MONEY TO MAKE MONEY, instead of "cutting cost to make profit" we'll see real growth. In the mean time, we sit around with little growth. Whose fault is it? Well... its the responsibility of the management committee to grow shareholder value. They are paid REALLY high dollars to do that too. I'd say its their fault. If you're not on the management committee, you are simply enacting what you've been told to do by someone higher up than you. At the end of the day, its their fault. If the shareholders end up unhappy enough, they will be the ones to get the boot, not the pilots, mechanics, lower / mid management, drivers, etc etc. What I truly wonder is... since it IS the responsibility of the management committee, and the company stock price just seems to go sideways, Why the friend$#@ are they getting raises? They have failed at their primary goal. [/QUOTE]
