[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 89492, member: 2189"] OH NO! Retired is badmouthing the Team! :lol: Hey Retired, Just funnin' with ya but I take it by the 2000' part in your alias that this is when you hit the good life? As hard as it is for me to even believe this company has changed a lot in that time and not so much for the good either. This ain't the same company it was 10, 15 or even 20 years ago and I don't mean that comment in a good way either. Since we went public it's not about the company or the customer but rather about the stock price and Wall Street. As yes I own a nice sum of stock and benefitted hugely when it went public but I'd give it all up to go back private in a heartbeat. In fact, I believe based on trends prior to the public offering that our stock would very likely be ahead now instead of where it's at so there you go. Now I'm sure the party loyalists to Glenlake will show up to whip me back into line but down where the real work takes place my thinking with both hourly and management is the view of the vast majority of UPSers. I guess the brown colored glasses are starting to wear clear for many of us and in fact have been for some time. I'm even surprised when I hear Jim Casey's name mentioned and I've even met some FT. sup's who really didn't know about Casey other than the name. What does that tell you? :mad: [/QUOTE]
