Founders Day - August 28th - Is your center doing anything?

[ManInBrown]

Got served an 11 hour day. A** holes

 

[PT Crazy]

They did nothing. Not a mention of it. We had to work through PCM.

 

[CentralSup]

Our center had doughnuts for the preload and drivers in the morning. Then we grilled burgers and hot dogs at night for the local sort, mechanics, washers, and drivers that wanted to double dip when they got back from their route.

 

[Dr.Brownz]

They celebrated today by cutting routes

 

[MzTeaze]

My dusty hub had cake and cupcakes plus Gatorade for the overnight crew. Better than I thought.

 

[Over 70]

We had a big breakfast cooked up on the centers big griddle. I showed up 5 minutes before start time. Meh.

They put up some decorations. Then I noticed the Founder's Day sign on my way out.

Anybody can deliver packages. What sets UPS apart is our founding culture and principles that were built with as much care as our devotion to package delivery. From the humble origin of message delivery more than 100 years ago--to transporting over 16 million packages per day, August 28 marks the company's annual Founders' Day. It's a day to celebrate and to remember that we are a "big" small company, still guided by founder Jim Casey's set standards.

"There can be no glamour, no romance, no truly great success, unless shared in by all," said Jim Casey about employees contributing to the success of UPS. The word "united" was adopted as part of our name in 1919 to serve as a reminder that the company's operations in each city were part of the same organization. Focusing on Jim Casey's original core principles has allowed us to run the tightest ship in the shipping business.

I use to use Mr. Casey's quotes at Preload PCMs. Some where like "who is that?" When I tell him it's from UPS's founder they would be in awe and ask what happen to this company. I probably would of ran thru a wall for Mr. Casey.

[Richard Harrow]

Jim Casey would vomit if he saw the way his company treated both it's employees and it's customers today.

Us and the customer have been replaced by the dollar and the shareholder.

 

[Poop Head]

Anybody can deliver packages.

I find this statement offensive. What about all the people that can't deliver packages? Hashtag me too.

For founder's day I found a few extra pickups in the board.
