[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 684604, member: 9789"] My guess is that in your operation it was more subtle. I had an air hub operation that mirrored the twilight hub. We hired people at the same time and my operation got any woman that was hired. I had worked in HR and confronted the manager with hard facts and she told me that we needed more women in the district and they had a better chance of making it in my operation. Your district should reflect the community in which it serves. There are statistics for each district and each district works hard to mirror the community in which they serve. Years ago companies including UPS raced to be more diverse. People were promoted to positions they were not qualified for. Those days are long gone. When this practice occurs now it is the exception not the rule. However there will always be someone to point out that it is the rule and make an example of the individual who is not qualified. If you look the the grand scheme of things, America is way out in front when it comes to valuing diversity. Look at other countries and you will see very little diversification in top management ranks. A country like Japan comes to mind. My guess is if you start looking at the top management in large companies, you will see nothing but men of Japanese dissent. A few more generations from now and people from our country will be very blended. Our descendants will consider themselves American without prejudice to what nationalities that came before them.
