We Love Logistics

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

We received our 2011 calendars today and, you guessed it, We Love Logistics is this year's theme.

They could have deleted the scene where the female customer jumps on the UPS driver and gives him a big hug.

The Chinese version of the ad ends with a businesswoman signing for her package. And the vocalist is less breathy and spastic, which is an improvement. (They should have had the Chinese singer do the US ad, IMO.)

We haven't passed them out yet--we each received one in our slots for our personal use.

I actually do--I put it in my kitchen and use it to write down appointments/vacations/etc.

They did that for us one time several years ago (put calendars in our slots for our own use). But they were also on the "one calendar per customer" kick, so I gave mine to a billion dollar account that wanted two.

We are also limited to one calendar per customer so I wait until they have all been distributed and will grab a few leftovers for my larger accounts.

Who might your larger accounts be, by the way?

Nice try.

Like the Chicago Bears I make no apologies for being opportunistic or lucky.

Ups use to give little trinkets and such to customers as a token of appreciation...pens shirts and such but I don't think this goes on anymore..one of my customers was given box seats to a nba game by a small time ltl company that just runs in the general area...ups has decided that our service should sell the business not small gifts...now this idea is being threatened by other factions within ups..in regards to upstates post about getting a free calandar I'm really surprised ups has done this...I haven't seen a personal calandar for a couple of years and usually there isn't enough for the customers

Who watches commercials? Thats what the fast forward button on the DVR is for.

Judging from some of the crap that the networks are trying to pass off as programming, the commercials are far more entertaining.
