[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1007788, member: 14668"] My current supervisor is much younger than I am, and he was a driver for about 6 weeks during peak. That being said, he is a decent guy who is honest and upfront about his relative lack of experience and he has enough humility to [I]listen[/I] when someone like myself with 25 years makes a suggestion or explains a situation to him. I dont have a problem with working for someone younger and less experienced than I am as long as they listen to me and do not try to [I]pretend[/I] that they know what they dont know. He made his career choice and I made mine; we both want the operation to succeed; so its up to him whether he wants to take advantage of my knowledge or not. Managing people is a different skill set than driving and delivering out of a package car, especially in todays UPS where there is an emphasis on automation and computer skills. [/QUOTE]
