[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 193287, member: 1944"] I totally agree. Back when we had a snowstorm and everyone was thanked for giving it our best, and we threw the numbers in the trash, coz we got it done. Or when we had a fire and everyone came in to help 1 week into peak, and we got it done. No one worried about who was doing what, we just did all we could to get it done. No one bitc*ed or filed grievances, we were all in this boat together, and we were in a major storm, and we got through it. No one cared if they were working 12 hrs, we had comraderie. Everyone cared. We kept the outside hires answering phones or cleaning the building, we didnt let them tell us how to fix it, we knew how to do it. We were allowed to use our brains and our brawn , to get it done. No outsiders interfered. Lost power for days one time, we got it done, no outsiders came in to do it, we did it. We pushed pkgs down the conveyor. Those who do no more than push a pencil stayed away. We still have in place the mechanism to fix the wayward listing ship. Let those who made the grade to promotion, do what they were promoted to do, supervise. Let those in control deal with the problems, since they came from the inside, they know how. They did it long before we did. I miss the way UPS used to be. Yes I still make great money, and their was always pressure, but it was realistic. Now very few care, the way they used to, and that I think is what made us great. [/QUOTE]
