[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1033361, member: 7966"] [SIZE=3][FONT=arial]I never discuss UPS with my wife or anyone outside UPS. I never socialize or go out with UPSers. I never go out for drinks after work. I do run into UPSers all the time. When I leave UPS, I turn "it" off except for my phone ... management is 24/7 in that respect. My current responsibilities does not require "operational" support and I have not been on an after-hours call in the last 6 months although I still take calls when I am on vacation. [SIZE=3]Those calls are probably the only exposure that she has had to UPS.[/SIZE] [/FONT] What does my wife know about UPS and that side of my life?[/SIZE] 1) UPS requires long hours and dedication 2) UPS pays an OK salary but growth in UPS Stock is the reward 3) UPS Stock did well until UPS went public 4) UPS pension pays almost as much as regular salary (age 58 and 40 years) 5) UPS Retiree Health Care premium is paid for by UPS 6) I was in Region for 2 years before my wife realized that i was not in the District 7) I was in Corporate for probably 6 years before she realized that 8) My wife has never been to UPS or any UPS events 9) She does not know any UPSers except for one lady I worked with 30 years ago with whom she does business [B] [SIZE=3]She does think the time I spend on Brown Cafe is wasted and not natural and she does not understand it. [/SIZE][/B][FONT=arial][SIZE=2]PS - My wife told me about every fricking thing that happened when she worked at a company and now that she sells on ebay, I hear all about that. Don't ask me to repeat it because I mostly don't absorb it.[/SIZE][/FONT][B][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/B] [/QUOTE]
