What is there to say congratulations keep up the good work.

 

[hurricanegunner]

Congratulations on making 25 years! That takes a lot of guts.

 

[wornoutupser]

Gee, only 7 months? We just had a driver get his 30 year...and that was last January! GO UPS!!

 

[FracusBrown]

Its the thought that counts???

 

[dilligaf]

We have a driver that was just given his 30 yrs of safe driving plaque about 2 weeks ago. His anniversary date was back in May.

 

[UnconTROLLed]

We had an inside employee reach 20 years back in 2009 however didn't recieve their plaque until after their 21st anniversary.

a box full of awards showed up back in early august, for drivers and p/t's, mostly 20's and 25 for the drivers & 20 and 40 for the p/t. That box is still sitting there.

I received my 19 and 20 year plaques on the same day....a couple of months after the 20th.

You are an "April Fool", not retarded.

They gave me my 5 year award well after I had passed 6 years. Another employee found his 10 year award on top of a shelf covered in dust. I believe the company sends these out on time, its the local management that could care less if you get it in a timely manner.

Stick to the mantra ... All decisions are made by some idiot in I.E. Sitting in a cubicle in Corporate.

This actually could be true Hoax. Every other decision that is made with regards to a center or hub comes from the Division Manager on up to Corporate. Why would this be any different?


And I am kidding when I say the above so please don't ANTI-SOCKS me!

 

[scottVA]

Im suprised they still give us our plaques, how about the stuff we could order out of out of book? I guess that left with the last contact?

 

[moreluck]

That flew off on turkey wings !!!

None of the awards stuff was ever contractual, it's always been a company handout. Just make sure your paycheck is right, and don't worry about a two dollar plaque.

Like the turkey?

First time I picked up the turkey it sat in my freezer for a year til I threw it out. A couple times after that I gave them away. Then I just stopped picking them up, it was more of a hassle for me than anything.

But wait Jonesy, there was a recent huge win for the wrench-turners over in UPS Air to get their turkeys back.
I mean there was celebration and fist-pumping ... it must have been pretty important to them.

PS - I always gave mine to the battered-womens shelter in my home town ... they were grateful.
