[QUOTE="conanofbytes, post: 130561"] Hmmm....... No one needs your excellent education. ABC was referring to the nonsense spewed by the poster. We all know about SCS. That was about coherence -- that's all. You are correct about most of what you say, however, college degrees and certifications are important. If you want really good paying jobs, they don't hurt you. If you interview against 20 or more candidates with essentially equal customer service skills, a degree or cert may be what you need to rise above the others. Winning a personality contest probably does happen, but I am unconvinced that congeniality trumps experience and education. As far as what is going on at UPS, I don't think anyone believes the job is safe any longer. Some are staying because they are close to retirement, others are rolling the dice with no where else to currently go. I'm leaving, I just don't know when -- or if by my hand. [/QUOTE]
