Is there anybody at the wheel at UPS that can pay attention to the real world?

[QUOTE="Coldworld, post: 543121, member: 4777"] As for your contention that "DHL's US Domestic didn't have a union", just where did you come up with THAT particular bit of "wisdom" (or, more aptly, "misinformation") from? As for your "how has not being union helped them"....well, once again, perhaps I should bring up that, over thirty years ago now, a Teamster honcho informed me that FedEx would be organized by the Teamsters "in a matter of months". At that time, the company was a small FRACTION of the size it is today. Think being non-union hasn't helped it? Seen the relative financials and/or stock prices lately? We wouldnt need to debating fedex status if OUR company would have taken them a little more serious 40 years ago. Maybe we should be wondering how the hell fedex has grown as much as they have over the years, especially with the company trying all they can to slow it down....regardless of their debt or not, they are hanging in there..they arent going anywhere. Whats ups going to do if this bill doesnt pass in congress, sit by and let them pass us up while mgt is out following drivers around and micromanaging folks about using an old style delivery notice?? BTW, Im not sure about others who have been reading your posts, but maybe you can keep them down a bit in content...I seem to get through one paragraph and for some reason cannot continue through the following 10. For what its worth welcome, Im sure youll have lots of lively debates with some of the other member on here. [/QUOTE]
