[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 533502, member: 11425"] I don't know about you but I work at UPS not to primarily serve customers, management, shareholders, etc. I work there for a paycheck that benefits [I]me. [/I]Why else does anyone work for another? If UPS wants to convince the government to enact laws that will benefit my company which therefore will benefit my paycheck, I am all for it. Now, what UPS is doing is trying to do is convince the government that FedEx is not playing fair. And since the public could care less one way or another if UPS or FedEx delivers their package, so long as it gets to them, we need to make our case through their eyes, not our own. If it appears FedEx is not doing it fairly we will win. Period. But we are not doing this out of fairness per se. We are doing this to benefit us financially. But remember, that is not to say we cannot be altruistic at the same time. But that is not our primary goal. Just as helping our community is not really the primary goal of UPS' support of the United Way. And one last note, we are doing this through legal channels. The Tonya Harding analogy does not apply.
