"If you want to make changes, get off your horse and man up to do the job. Otherwise, your just part of the pr"oblem, not the solution."
Based upon that statement, i find it hard to believe you're an IPA guy. The above sentiment might work in an airline where the managers can go back and forth from the line. But at ups, once you've gone to the manglement side, you're done. Most of the managers have zero cred with the line swine and the manglers don't respect us either. We've had self-serving jack-asses here (hi Houston!) go to mgt with the express purpose of "changing things for the better" only to find themselves as a flock of one. HONK HONK. I personally would love to have the option to do some mangling for a while, then go back to the line. That will never happen, though. Just the way it is, here in the land of Brown
