Why has UPS been described as an ethical company? In a press release, Big Brown stressed that "the World's Most Ethical Companies designation recognizes those companies that align principle with action, [and] work tirelessly to make trust part of their corporate DNA."

But there's something else engrained deep in UPS's "corporate DNA": racism. Across the U.S., UPS has singled out and systematically harassed African American workers, leading to civil right lawsuits, protests by the NAACP and, in one case, a picket against racism by a local Teamsters union.

UPS is an equal opportunity abuser.

An old timer told me the first time I was harassed by management..." don't worry about it. it's just your turn."

I found that article interesting.
I know some people actually feel like this.
I feel lucky to have had my poor but bucolic childhood in rural south Georgia and northern Alabama.

Wherever I see Trump, it smells like he's Putin.
I used to tell newbies, after they emerged from a major in office butt chewing, due to their running afoul of UPS policy; tomorrow mgmt won't even remember this. They'll have another poor bastard to complain about.
