[QUOTE="UPSIsASillyCompany, post: 397221, member: 17419"] SX, I understand that everyone's going to have their own perspective about their job in relation to their own life, where they are, where they've come from, and where they want to go. This is an innernet forum, yah? People will get on me regardless of what I write. I'm sure I've made clear that I'm not going to sacrifice my life and limb for $9/hr and no bennies. I'm a hard worker, but not an irrational one. If working at UPS does prove to require "irrationality" as a personality trait, then sure, I'd have no qualms or regrets about leaving a ridiculous situation for a better one. Like I wrote in my first post, maybe I should have known better about UPS after lurking here...but sometimes you gotta see things for yourself, right? "Bitch and moan" is relative too, isn't it? For me, "bitching and moaning" consists of requesting proper training BEFORE I start working, so that I can be successful in completing a task safely. The whole sink-or-swim methodology is about 50 years ago, and definitely not appropriate for such a respectable company. [COLOR=Black]If the reactionary posts here are serving to say "get out now, because you're too RATIONAL for UPS", then I may be able to agree with that. ;)[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
