Do you derive a sense of purpose from UPS?

[QUOTE="bad company, post: 1001208, member: 9308"] When I worked for UPS, I originally felt like I had a sense of purpose. Then I went to a different package center, and every thing changed. It simply became a job. A good job... but a job nonetheless. One of my main reasons for wanting to leave UPS was because I did not feel a sense of purpose or major accomplishment. Don't get me wrong, UPSers are some of the hardest working people out there, but as a younger college graduate, I never imagined myself driving a truck for a long-term career. I have since left and pursued my long time "dream" job of being a police officer. I enjoyed the time at UPS and learned a lot. I still miss the co-workers, but I'm fortunate to be able to police in the same city I delivered in when I was a service provider. Unlike I did while at UPS, I do feel a sense of purpose as a police officer. The pay is 3x less than it was UPS and the benefits are half as good, but the sense of accomplishment and purpose, and the overall level of satisfaction that I enjoy being a police officer is not some thing that I personally could have obtained while at UPS.
