[QUOTE="Jackburton, post: 1322032, member: 34538"] Being from management, I'll give you an underhand toss. Two people of equal education and work ethic apply for a position. One is a former serviceman, the other is not. The serviceman gets the job and his face is plastered all over billboards as "We endorse hiring veterans, we don't discriminate". As I said before either person I'm ok with getting the job, heck, I'd love to show appreciation to our vets by helping them get hired. But is it A. Fair to the other applicant he didn't join the military to apply for a position that has nothing to do with it, and B. To parade the one who did as if UPS did something special and we should be proud that he get preferential treatment because he served? Shouldn't everyone get a fair shot? If the other applicant was a minority would that supersede the vet because it's black history month and not Nov 11th, Veterans Day? [/QUOTE]
