Do you derive a sense of purpose from UPS?

[QUOTE="bad company, post: 1001408, member: 9308"] I'm including the overtime from UPS, but yes... that part of it has been a big adjustment. But hey, on the bright side, I have A/C in my car!!! It's refreshing to work for a company/organization that actually supports my decisions and cares about me... the individual. I got T-Boned the other day on my way into work while driving my patrol car (get to take it home). This is the first accident I have been in since I started law enforcement, and for a minute, my brain went back into "UPS mode". I started wondering how pissed off my management was going to be, regardless of the fact that I was not at fault, and starting thinking about how my supervisor was going to write me up for my unavoidable yet "avoidable" accident. I thought about how much of a pain in the butt they were going to be about injuries and workers compensation. Then I was confronted with the reality of NOT working for UPS. Management could care less about the vehicle damage..."that's what insurance is for". Being in law enforcement and seeing the vehicle damage, they knew right away that I was not at fault. Their main concern was my health and safety, and I was actually [U]ordered[/U] to go see the doctor. They didn't complain about safety numbers or the costs associated with the accident and my medical care. They told me to see whatever doctor I needed to, whatever specialist my doctor and I deemed necessary, and to take as much time off from work as needed until I felt better. [/QUOTE]
