[QUOTE="rod, post: 4042690, member: 5382"] When I started In 1971 there was a big story about UPS in a national magazine called US Business News. The name of the article was "What Makes UPS Run". At that time UPS was starting their bid to become a nation wide delivery service. Up until then UPS didn't deliver west of the Mississippi except the 3 coastal states so there were a lot of states left to open up. The news article told about how great a company UPS was and its future look guaranteed bright. It talked about the great service, the shinny trucks and the hustling employees. I still remember how the article ended. It said the [B]ONLY [/B]way UPS could fail was by bad management. Looks like whoever wrote that story missed their calling as a fortune teller. [/QUOTE]
