[QUOTE="CamelToeIsABitch, post: 600891, member: 25177"] The lack of knowledge of some of the postings here leads me to think that UPS hire idiots. First of all, Account Managers do not receive commission only, it is a base salary plus bonus position. Secondly, when interviewing for an AM position, the candidate is not informed of the hours required for the job. It is never discussed that you will be working 55-65+ hours a week. The attitude from upper management and even Human Resources is that you will be abused and there is not a damn thing you can do about it. Having worked in sales for many years, I can tell you that I have never seen such ineptitude from upper management as there is at UPS. It's pathetic that this company chooses to hire people for management positions that don't even have basic skills for working with and supervising others. I can say with complete confidence that there are those in management that would not even be considered for the most entry-level and menial positions with other reputable companies. One doesn't have to wonder how they get these positions. There is a "fake it to make it" philosophy by those incompentent managers. And if you're not qualified you can always be "friendly" with the right individual to get promoted - if you know what I mean. Those who want to post ignorant and uninformed messages here would think quite differently if you even worked one day at UPS. This lawsuit was a long time coming. It is well deserved and completely legitimate. [/QUOTE]
