[QUOTE="Harley Rider, post: 234303, member: 10872"] UPS is not the same company it was when I started many moons ago. I always admired the "promote from within" philosophy and almost took the plunge myself about 15 years ago. Now they don't even want to look at you unless you have a four year degree. I pity the folks that are still driving in the next 10 to 15 years. The guys and gals that came up through the ranks will all be gone. Either retired or fired. All that will be in management are the bean counters, OMS, and college grads that have absolutely no center experience. Much less driving experience. It will be hard trying to keep an experienced driving crew around. The BS that will come with the job won't be worth it for any amount of money. The "S" in UPS has already been sacrificed for profit and attaining the correct numbers. I believe the upper crust of management think they have the company headed in the right direction. They are building a new chrome and metal sky scraper on a crumbling foundation. The foundation was management that came up through the ranks and knew the job that had to be done and how to achieve the goals without the need to be micromanaged by a bean counter. [/QUOTE]
