[QUOTE="ezrider, post: 54562"] Deliverman, my girl walked in and needed my help right then and there so I had to fire off that last rant of mine quickly. I'm glad you understand it's intended meaning. Moreluck, I think the only reason I remember the word is because I had to reach for the dictionary the first few times I had seen it in print. By no means am I the only driver that refers to the term when asked by management why someone that would bother to get a college degree would continue to deliver packages rather than put on the tie. Tieguy, I think if any of my teachers were to look at any of these boards they would be stunned by the numerous spelling errors of many posters and myself included. They likely would figure that if all UPS people were as bad at math as they are at grammar, that it shouldn't be a surprise that the company couldn't come up with the number that Wall Street was looking for. Proups, no doubt the driver is paid higher than that of the competitors. That's why many like myself get irritated when they see the same mistakes made over and over due to the refusal of management to acknowledge where the mistakes originate from in operations as opposed to where and when the mistakes encountered. I and every guy I work with wearing the browns am all for streamlining the process and I don't even want a cut of the cash saved from doing so. I don't expect the people in Atlanta to get a slam dunk every trip down the floor. Even the best can make mistakes. But when they start making the same mistakes over and over, something on thier end needs to be changed before any cost-saving measures can ever stand any realistic chance of success. And that's not just the driver's take. I know many of the sups(whether current or former) feel the same way towards the big cats. They also have spoken the word [i]hubris[/i] when describing what it's like on the other side. Many regret going there. After listening to them describe the treatment from above, I can start to see why. [/QUOTE]
