[QUOTE="Treegrower, post: 323604, member: 11614"] ....What's the qoute in ads for financial services I always hear?......."past performance does not indicate future sucess".. or something along those lines. I agree UPS was wildly sucessful but now sadly they seem have have lost their way. From NDA and Fred S to RPS then remote delivery, then going public at the height of the stock boom(just a horrible time to go public) to the fact they they went public at all, flat stock prices. I've been here for over a 1/4 century. There was a time when mgt. really knew the business and how to operate it. I am not so sure anymore. The strike of '97 reqally showed just how much the drivers are relied upon to really make the whole business run. I am not just talking about the actual driving from point A to B but rather just how much we are the face and heart and soul of the business in the publics eye. Everyday we turn straw into gold ala "Rupplestillskin". I personally have to take a really bad dispatch(not every single day) and really bad mgt. decisions (almost every single day) and go out there in all kinds of weather and situations ( just ask Tooner) and "MAKE IT HAPPEN" for UPS.
