•1."The future of the package industry is in the air"

Casey began an air service in 1928. The Depression made the company abandon the service. After WWII, Casey wanted a Next Day Service. The "new" leaders of the company decided 48 state ground service was more important.

Exactly ... at least 14 years.
In retrospect, probably before that ... 1994 - 1995.

I'm sure most of it was BS while he was alive also.

 

[BrownArmy]

First I thought this was a necro-post...

Recycle your old newspapers!

 

[HEFFERNAN]

Casey died on June 6, 1983 at the age of 95

In three weeks, that will be 30 years ago

1/3 of the company probably weren't even born when he was alive

​Makes those mission statements and quotes pretty ancient now, lol

At your rate of pay we expect perfect production,anything beneath that will be interpreted as stealing time.


•3."Don't make company demands that border on harassment"
I need you back and punched out by 1900 regardless of your dispatch.


•4."They are advised to constantly seek better, safer work methods."
Go like a madman all day but do it safely.


•5."Provide the best possible service for the least money."
NI 1 take it to the UPS store let them pick it up.

"
•6."Always promote from our own ranks"
Part time sups that had paper routes run preload.

.

•7."No stock outside the company"
Money is everything.

•8."Treat your people well and the company will florish."

•10."Personal pride and dignity are essential to each employee, without this management fails and the company will not prosper."

1995 was 18 years ago. One third of the company wasn't alive 18 years ago?
You do know you have to be 18 years old to work at UPS?

 

[sortaisle]

His legacy went out the door in 1999 when UPS went public. After that, all the company BBQ's, summer picnics, and other fringe bene's disappeared or at least started to. I'm sure it was better before my first day in 97, however even I have watched this company that used to give half a for it's employees lose the other half.

What Heff was stating (albeit indirectly) is that he thinks 1/3 of the UPS workforce is 30 years of age or less.
That seems reasonable and maybe a bit low ... may be closer to 40%.
