What three questions would you ask Scott Davis?

[texan]

Jim Casey took the company public back in the 30's and then took it back private again when the money was flowing in the Great Depression.

I don't know if he would have taken it public in 1999 anymore than anybody else but I suspect he would have if it was the prudent business decision to do so.

I suspect he would not have accumulated the debt that UPS has in the last 15 years.

hmmm I missed that in reportbacks and UPS history. I really have never heard that until now.

Thanks for the info Hoax.

I'd like to see a quote of Jim Casey ever supporting the idea of outside ownership of this company. The only shareowners he ever recognized as being important, are the employees of UPS that buy/earn shares of UPS.

I am not saying that he was speaking about outside shareowners... I don't know.

The quote was that we owe our jobs to the shareowners. Whether internal or external, they are shareowners.

I did NOT say he was an advocate of UPS being public.....

Public or private, shareowners deserve a return.

Jim Casey used to talk about putting money in the "kitty". He was talking about profit.

That is just base pay. According to a quick google search, Costco filings indicate Sinegal earned about $12.3 Million in 2011 when you include bonuses and stock options. That is the number you should look at if you are going to compare apples to apples.

Correct and I am going to assume, it is still far and away less compensation than Scott Davis.

The $12.3M in total compensation is fairly close.
