Agency Sends (United) Parcel on Its Way - New York Times
The agency responsible for creating campaigns for United Parcel Service is deciding to wipe the whiteboard clean.

The Martin Agency in Richmond, Va., which has been the creative agency for U.P.S. in the United States since April 2001, is withdrawing from a review for the account. The decision means that Martin, part of the Interpublic Group of Companies, is resigning its assignment, effective at the end of the year.

Not sorry to see that ad campaign go. I wonder how much of the decision was caused by being tainted on the brownbailout site?

Any suggestions for a new slogan? How about "UPS - We Track Your Package, And Your Driver Too"?

They just want more money: another reason for managment to mess over the drivers some more.
