[QUOTE="Anonymous Former Partner, post: 132827"] The partnership became null and void when top executives and Wall St. investors sold us out and started making all the money off UPS stock. It's a shame, because UPS used to be a unique company with a unique partnership culture. We all worked hard and reaped the benefits - management and teamsters alike. We got our butt kicked often but there was comradery and financial reward for employees who stuck it out. I'm a 20 yr manager and still working at UPS, but my partnership status has changed to "former partner." I truly like the people I work with but I no longer bleed brown. I let the partnership thing go and have committed to myself that I'm going to be content and pray like crazy that I never get promoted. My advice to all is to diversify out of UPS stock (regardless of the incentive), be content, stop belittling everyone in meetings, conference calls, etc., enjoy the people you work with, and leave after 9 hours even if you have things hanging. UPS won't fold if you quit, so we'll survive if you cut your hours down. Since we're making less money, lets make it a better place to work. Oh yeah...and lets get rid of the upper management...every strategic move they've made over the last number of years has been bad. That billion+ we spent on rebranding really did it for us eh? Well, time to go, I've got to go work on positive operating leverage! LOL [/QUOTE]
