United Parcel Service UPS Impartial Employment and Promotion Guide 1/1/1986

Description

United Parcel Service UPS. The printed guide for Impartial Employment and Promotion. I can tell you from attending many meetings discussing people and promotions, that UPS does not live by their own policies and rules. I have seen many people that have worked hard to move up and keep moving up the ladder at UPS that are overlooked, or better put, passed up for promotions because of their gender or the color of their skin.  I can give you name after name after name of people that have been passed up so UPS could promote a minority or a female. I can tell you about people that were told don't even bring a name for promotion unless the person is a minority or a female. Don't get me wrong. There are many good minority and female people in management. I can also tell you that many of the minority and female management have failed because they were promoted too early just to fill a quota or a number at UPS and not promoted for their qualifications. I am stating these facts because this book means absolutely nothing in the way UPS promotes its people and you can ear the truth. UPS has a written policy that they do not follow. It is simply a written policy so they can say they have it. Minority and female are a protected worker at UPS. Most are chosen for management over white male workers just so UPS can say they have diversity. Not chosen because they are more qualified.
To the buyer (My Customer). I usually ship the day you pay or the very next day unless I am on vacation or leave town for an unexpected reason. In the past I have always sent a message to the buyer as soon as possible the day the item ended and explained to the customer that I am on vacation, the date I will return and the date the package would be shipped. I have never had an upset customer doing business this way. Now Ebay has implemented more stupid policies in regards to handling time. If I go on vacation or leave town suddenly and cannot ship your package in the 2 or 3 day handling time then Ebay holds this against me even though I have communicated with you the customer and explained exactly what is going on and when your package will be shipped. Ebay is taking away my Seller status for this reason and now as a result has forced me to put a much higher handling time in each of my listings. Even though I have to list a much higher handling time (10 days )
I will still ship your package the day you pay or the very next day just as I have in the past. The only exception is if I am on vacation or get called and have to leave town for a few days. This is yet another Stupid decision that some knucklehead at Ebay has decided to implement without much thought at all. Ebay continues to implement policies to make it difficult for sellers to do business. Perhaps when a quality competitor comes along and vast number of people leave Ebay and do business with the competitors Ebay will get their head out of their _ _ _ and build relationships and user friendly policies. As of now Ebay could care less about you or me and any other buyers or sellers.
