[QUOTE="soberups, post: 3687348, member: 14668"] Even the job title is misleading. The term “manager” or “supervisor” implies that the person with that title has the authority to make a meaningful operational decision. At UPS, this is not the case. UPS “managers” are not actually managers at all. They are “Plan Facilitators” and the plan that they are facilitating is not their own and is frequently devoid of any basis in reality. As a UPS “manager” you will be held responsible for the failure of The Plan even though you had no voice in its creation and no authority to fix any of the problems that will prevent it from succeeding. Whatever you do, don’t make the mistake of going into management with the idea that you will ever be able to make a difference. Because you wont. [/QUOTE]
