[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 54129"] Tie: First, the stock went up BEFORE the Overnite announcement. The management committee met with the investors the week before. The company got lots of good press coming out of that meeting. Go to UPS.com and you can hear all the presentations as well as the slides and video that went along with it. Second, you want to believe that I'm naive for putting my faith in the management committee. They are the ones that created the "company line". Do you know them or much about them? They are incredibly good people with more to lose than I do. They have high integrity, and I trust their intentions. Learn about them... Finally, this is not the first time that the management committee had to made tough choices for the good of the company. Go back and read Casey's speaches. Read what he told the "plant managers". How he told them to hang in there through tough times. Read "the road ahead". He acknoledged that times were tough, but told them to trust the direction. Read "a talk with Joe." Read Jim Kelly's "a talk from Joe". There were times when management got stock dividends instead of cash. Years with very low MIP. Meetings with little or no stock increase. Like today, management then had to decide who to believe. As it turned out, upper management was right before. So, I'll leave my trust with the management committee. That's what "partners" are supposed to do. P-Man (Message edited by pretzel_man on May 21, 2005) [/QUOTE]
