Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
I still have a big ass pen I got for my 10th anniversary at UPS. Thing must weigh half a poundI did throw out a lot more than I saved. We used to get an incredible amount of junk.

I planted mine , was growing good till a pvd drove over itI think it was a spruce.
I planted mine and it promptly died.
Yep planted mine at our old house. It’s still there growing well.Who remembers the founders day gift , early 90's. We got a miniature pine tree about a foot long in a box
Interesting…there’s @scratch on there slanging parcels with his daisy dukes on #legendYep
Dont have that one anymore. @MECH-II cut it down.
I believe the plate was my first founders day gift.

All we get now is a crappy printout in an ugly green box. I got a dumb hero’s pin during Covid and it didn’t even have the clasp on the back of it. Fell off. I usually don’t go to the PCMs so my green boxes sit in the office until someone remembers to give it to me. I just throw it in the trash on the way out the door.Lower seniority drivers like @MECH-II missed out on really really cool stuff like this.
We also had a shindig at a Stadium near a hub. Static Displays,Food, and Brainwashing.
Been on here for a number of years. That’s the hardest I’ve ever laughed at a post. Brought to tears.Before he died, they shoved it up your ass.
The day he died, the next morning at the PCM, they had a 60 second moment of silence.

Fitting, because he was gay.
I planted mine at the folks house. Thirty foot tall blue spruce now.Who remembers the founders day gift , early 90's. We got a miniature pine tree about a foot long in a box
I remember planting mine, but I don't think it survived.I planted mine at the folks house. Thirty foot tall blue spruce now.
First thing they did right
I was a PT Sup in the Atlanta Hub at the time and remember my FT Sort Mgr telling us he had passed away - he was actually kind of sad about it. I might have heard of Jim Casey but hadn't at that time been steeped in the whole Founders culture thing so I didn't realize his significance to UPS until a while after that.I noticed most of you guys have been in UPS before the dinosaurs went extinct and some of you even retired before I was even born. So you guys are the best to ask, what was it like in UPS when Jim died?
Sometimes I will read some old fliers from the early 2000s from desks that have been abandoned in this office for years talking about the legacy of Jim and how he was a hero amongst heroes.
Do you guys really think he was really that great of a founder? if you were around when he died, how did everyone react? was it like kim jong il dying in North Korea where everyone mourned for a week straight? (Just not at gunpoin
I don't know, but want to speculate the loaders or sups didn't walk on customers' packages when moving through a package car, and they cared for customers more as a whole, and likely treated employees with respect instead of looking at them assuming we all steal time and manipulate the system. Not the ethical humans we are who come to work in a manner to keep our job so we can provide a lifestyle for our families. Instead they treat us like new inmates at a detention center looking for anything to give us a suspension or some type of dirt on our record.what was it like in UPS when Jim died?
