Regardless, I don't think you'll find many FedEx guys who don't think that Fred Smith is worth every penny of that, whereas, from what I'm reading from our UPS brothers/sisters, all your managers are quite overpaid. Besides, Mr. Eskew was only CEO for eight years, whereas Mr. Smith has not only been the CEO since 1971, but also happens to be the founder of our amazing company.

Don't know about the FedEx managerial culture, but at UPS you are a dirtbag anew every morning. Fear, intimidation, sudden moves and reassignments are all part of the game.

Well, let's go to the source and see what our "friend" Chuck Turpen has to say in reference to management versus regular line dogs:

These people in Haiti aren't going to be late on their house payment because of poor planning and 4A2b. They don't have homes. They aren't worried about what their daughters are going to drive to the preppy college this year. They are digging them out from under a pile of rubble.

When you need the TD you give the ball to the ones that perform.
emphasis mine!
