[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 888243, member: 7966"] Maybe it has something to do with UPS, in the past, hired people with very strong work ethics and many of them coming out of the armed forces. For these people, it is in their nature to get the job done and they don't accept failure very easily. The younger people are more complacent and don't see the direct relationship between hard work and success. They are also more willing to accept someone else defining failure rather defining it themselves than the newer people. Younger people question things and don't buy into the American dream anymore. A lot of them voted for Obama. Another possible reason is the differences in society. People who were born in the early 60's and before did not think physical, manual labor jobs were beneath them but that has changed and nowadays, it is looked down upon. Look at how quickly the drivers that can't do the job try to get into management. Just a few thoughts that occurred to me as I read this thread. Peace :peaceful: from The Other Side [/QUOTE]
