[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 595629, member: 484"] I had a PM that got me to thinking. Actually several. Some of the management folk have thought that I was anti UPS all the way, others, hourly mostly, have posted that they dont understand my defense of UPS in a lot of situations. And then there was the one yesterday, a driver of many years that is like I was, loved my job, just not some of the BS that went with it. I pretty much loved the job I held as a UPS deliveryman. While the hours were long, it did allow for me to afford a lot of special time with the family. Yup, I did miss a lot of little special times that I wished I could have seen, but over all, the sacrifices made were worth the outcome. Does that mean there could not have been improvements? And those improvements to our jobs are the reason some posters think I am anti-UPS. I even enjoyed holding the position of steward. Had it not been for the initial knee injury, I would probably still been at UPS now. Maybe that is one of the reasons I understood Marty working as long as he did. IF you really love what you do, then it ceases to be work. I know that a lot of people come on here to bash UPS/sups, and it feeds on itself once it starts. But how many people really like what they do at UPS? d [/QUOTE]
