[QUOTE="dammor, post: 137741, member: 479"] How long have you been working here and what is it you do? I ask this because I don't think you have a clue what a person in thier 50's feels like after 25+years here. Some of us walk better than others, but we all feel the effects of lifting this sort of weight for that many years. As far as the gym goes, well that's just funny. The job is our gym. Tell me how you feel in 20 years and I will try not to say I told you so. The fact that you have seen no sexism in the workplace is not surprising. You wouldn't unless you were female. It has very little to do with the number of women hired. It is about the way the women who are hired are treated by some of the men they work with. Not all mind you, just some. The older men seem to respect a woman who can do the job, the younger men sometimes appear to see them as a threat. All that being said, I think UPS is a good place to work if you have a thick skin and a good work ethic. Both are required. [/QUOTE]
