I was when I was employed. I am now because I keep buying stock and I receive awesome dividends; then reinvest; and......

UPS is here to stay.

The lower the sale price and the higher the Credit Rating and the Dividend...........Oh Yeah!!!

Awesome dividends? To be considered an average rated dividend stock the yield has to be in the 4 - 5% range. UPS is around 3% and that is primarily because the stock price is depressed.
Otherwise, the rest is supportable.

Tell me what Companie's provide a better dividend versus their average Share price?

 

[EAT MY OVERALLOWED]

I get a pay raise every year ontop of whatever our contract gives us. EDD/PAS has been real good to my paychecks. Stupidvisors have to wear diapers into the building in the AM when they look at my numbers. More stops and less time to do them every single time we get a raise -- cut the allowances down all you want deskgirls -- see ya at 10pm.

I've been investing over 15 years.
If you want to know, research it yourself.
What you are searching for is the list of stocks on the NYSE and other boards ranked by Yield (ratio of annual dividend divided by stock price per share). (Note: Yield is never measured against average price)
I would be surprised if UPS is in the top 100.

Ok, I'll do it for you. UPS is not as high as I even gave us credit.
UPS is ranked 102 out of the S&P 500 which is only about 10% of the stocks in the US market

This page shows that 12 of the 29 stocks in the Dow (UPS is not in the DOW) that pay dividends pay higher yields than UPS as of EOD day Friday June 25, 2010.

I'm thankful everyday that I have my union job at UPS. And yes I'm happy most of the time.

Ok, you got me. It's still not that bad though.

Very happy with UPS. I was unemployed for 6 months before I started here. I appreciate what I have!

There are many working here who take it for granted--your attitude is refreshing.
