[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 341968, member: 927"] Ramsey, 2029: I'm not an IS guy. I'm not a user. I'm just a long time UPS management person, but I know enough about IS and technology to be dangerous. On one assignment, I spent significant amount of time in the building that Ramsey gets his name from. UPS has about 30,000 management people. The vast majority work hard every day, maintain a good attitude, and represent UPS well. There is a small minority that don't show pride in their work or for UPS. When I see that, I feel a need to call them out. As I suspected, there is the silent majority here that don't buy the BS you spout. I really think you need to decide whether you would rather be in management, or be an employee. There's a lot more responsibility being in management. Management requires a greater commitment, sacrifice, and ownership of decisons. There are lots of IT people in UPS that I consider partners. I'd take them with me in the field any day. Others complain about their position, second guess every decision and forget that they are here to SUPPORT the business. BTW, do you really think that the stock is where it is because of the failed IT projects you mentioned? Decide whether you want to act like and be treated like a partner, or if you prefer being an employee. P-Man [/QUOTE]
