Congrats to all of you new hires. I must say the all of the excited attitudes about working for big brown is a bit much. I have been here now 16 years and 1 month and can say without a shadow of a doubt that your attitude will change very quickly about this company. The paychecks will be be deposited in your account every two weeks but having to earn them will be tough. UPS does not care about you or anything that you have to say. They only want team players who will go the extra mile day in and day out no matter what. Being that I am only 41, I try to grin and bear it but coming to work here does wear a person down. UPS needs a complete overhaul in it's corporate mentality of employee treatment. Ask any long term package car driver who stops at your door how he feels about his job and then tell me if I am wrong. Now that I have said that, let me me say you will not find a greater bunch of folks within our pilot group. We all strive to make this place better. UPS is slowly changing. I only hope it's within my last 18+ years. Good luck and stop by the ASC and I will buy each one of you new hires a free breakfast.

Cheers,
