[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 808015, member: 927"] Danny, Not sure how to respond. The vast majority of UPSers are wonderful people. Both management and hourly. Yes, there are some horrible ones too. Again, both management and hourly, but.... Poor management does terrible damage to UPS. They spoil many people for a long, long, time. A poor hourly person has very limited impact. Your last statement says a lot. There are 400,000 minds at UPS. There is NOT 1 mind. There is not a single mind at the top telling everyone how to behave. It's up to individuals. I cannot accept that an individual does not matter or cannot make change. As far as I'm concerned, a poor manager acts as if they cannot run their own operation. Everyone blames the IPO. I do not. The root cause is competition. We are running tighter now. The operation is harder. It is no longer cookie cutter like when I started. Management people have to be planners, thinkers, creative, etc. So, I refuse to accept that a good manager cannot run their operation the way they see fit. That is how the process works. Its the average manager that accepts that the decision was not their own. Sorry for the unpopular answer. [/QUOTE]
