[QUOTE="25yrvet, post: 168316, member: 4677"] I was taught to 'climb the ladder' in my childhood, I had good examples in my parents. I carried this philosophy to ups 26 yrs ago & was pulled aside by a couple of ol' vets who advised me not to climb the ladder. So for the first couple of years I kept my eyes & ears open in observation of mgt. The ol' vets were right, MOST of the dozens of mgt people that I've seen have had to lower their morals (Half truths, the whole truth not being told, bending the #s, etc). I remember seeing my old ctr mgr crying in his P600 before he was accepted into mgt; seems he didn't think his knees could take another year of delivering pkgs. On the other side of the coin I've seen a couple of good ones who would tell me the truth even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear (I got over it & respected them); but most of them don't last long. I've currently got an on car sup that's younger than my tenure with the company, he started pt, worked through college, got a degree , delivered & then went into mgt. We have a mutual respect for each other. KEY WORDS--mutual respect. [/QUOTE]
