I'm trying to post my Rookie of the Year photo on the Big Idea. My computer
skills are lacking. Thus, the screwups.

I did it! Me. Rookie of the Year 1976. Notice the gorgeous head of hair, high quality watch and top of the
line clipboard. Is it any wonder all the woman wanted me.

No, I was just kidding. I never worked as a Primary Sorter. I was a new driver by that time.

I think that mustache is below the corner of lip. I want that picture taken down until he meets the personal appearance guidelines

It’s nice to see Gumby working but is that Charles Manson he’s working with? That could explain a lot

I think we all tried to push the hair and facial hair limits back then, that was taken about six months after I started driving in 1984, I was 25. My Center Manager used to walk around and tell drivers to get a haircut, shorten their sideburns, shine their shoes, and a few times he handed a Bic disposable razor to somebody and told them to use it or go home.

Nobody on the bottom belts would complain when Charlie would missort.

My first job was on the Purple Belt, which was the floor level belt in the Primary Sort facing the unload. I worked pulling Irregulars off, we got smalls bags and missorts too. We stayed buried a lot when the Primary Sort got screwed up.

Charlie came up with an Acronym that was used by UPS before Charlie was arrested.

Whenever I look at pictures of people from the 70's and early 80's what always stands out is how much skinnier folks were in general. Obesity rates have skyrocketed since then and if you took those picture now probably at least half the guys would be overweight.
