I was thinking about this guy earlier.

http://mikeyvtheworld.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/george-willis.html

Strange that someone, somewhere is reading this right now. Stats would imply that it's someone in the States.

Despite the open door policies of UPS, his e-mail address doesn't seem to be available anywhere. Sorry anonymous, I have searched again.

Moyes World Cup XI

I for one don't hold with the excuses made last season for David Moyes.

Ageing squad? only Giggs and Ferdinand have retired at the end of the season, wouldn't Mata & Fellaini have been young enough to replace them?
Vidic is only 32 and going to Inter, so isn't exactly past it.
Vidic also played a lot more games last season than in the previous one, and both he and Ferdinand have been injury prone over the last few years.

The squad should have had a year's more experience not be ageing.
Ferguson got the title out of that squad, Moyes presumably bought to improve it. He had been lined up for the job for years, so it's not beyond the bounds of credibility for him to have known where the squad needed strengthening.

Of the rest, lets have a look who's playing in Brazil

De Gea Spain
Smalling England
Jones England
Fellaini Belgium
Evra France

Valencia Ecuador
Mata Spain
Welbeck England
Januzaj Belgium

Rooney England
van Persie Netherlands

That leaves;
Nani Portugal
Kagawa Japan
Hernandez Mexico

There's not many old players there, unless you count Evra at 33

That's a 4-4-2 with Fellaini as a centre back.

with Lindegaard, Fletcher, Cleverley, Young, Carrick, Raphael, Evans, Vidic, Giggs & Ferdinand also on the bench* as international players.
That's 24 international players.

*+ anyone else I may have missed

It's about the ability to motivate players and that didn't happen much last year.

Brown Café - Teddies out

Teddy's out of the cot over in the Brown Café regarding accidents.
It's the UPS mentality of everyone blaming everybody else, even mechanics get involved.

Love the comment that says 39 deaths rounds down to nothing. Guess it was none of his/her family that was involved.

UPS's 102,000 drivers worldwide are among the safest on the roads, logging more than 2 billion miles a year while averaging less than one accident per million miles driven.

39 fatalities rounds off to about zero

What a horrifying statement to make. 39 lives are 39 families that have lost someone they love.
And everytime they see a UPS vehicle they will be reminded that is how they lost someone in their family.

Have a look Here

Nothing on there about tachograph infringements and working time regulations, but it is the States so maybe they aren't hammered as much as UPS employees are in the UK.

There are details here from my tachograph label, about infringements in the UK. Remember this only shows the recorded infringements, there are many more that are hidden by incorrect recording of hours and breaks.

A more important question may be;

Why do VOSA turn a blind eye to this?

Are there some large brown envelopes exchanging hands? The level of possibly fines just on recorded infringements has got to be worth a very handsome backhander.

Talking of backhanders, never heard from the police or Albert Graham's solicitors following his threat, and that Cindy, is the true meaning of the word threat. That is all it was. I will say again, either Albert Graham was extremely incompetent or he deliberately lost my paperwork, and why would he have done that?

My money is on UPS not letting Albert do anything anyway. All the background would have to be investigated. So bring it on Albert.

UPS - The new man

David Abney leads all operations for UPS, which is a global leader of logistics and the world's largest package delivery company. As chief operating officer, he has responsibility for UPS logistics, sustainability, and engineering.

In these roles, David directs all facets of the UPS transportation network serving more than 220 countries and territories. UPS's global transportation network includes a ground fleet of more than 96,000 vehicles, an air fleet of more than 500 aircraft, and Worldport, UPS's main air hub in Louisville, Kentucky. UPS Airlines also has major hubs in Cologne, Germany, and Shenzhen, China.

Prior to his current position, Abney served as president of UPS International, and he led UPS's strategic imperative to build global logistics capabilities. During his tenure, Abney oversaw many global acquisitions including those of the Fritz Companies, Stolica, Lynxs, and Sino-Trans in China.

He began his UPS career in 1974 as a part-time package loader. Over the years, he held various operational positions. He also served as president of SonicAir, a same-day delivery service that signaled UPS's move into the service parts logistics sector.

In addition to his corporate responsibilities, David is a Trustee of The UPS Foundation, UPS's charitable arm.

He is a member of the Board of Directors of Johnson Controls, Inc., Airlines for America, and the Coalition of Service Industries, which represents service businesses and seeks to lower barriers to world trade. Abney also is chairman of the World Affairs Council of Atlanta.

A native of Greenwood, Miss., David received his bachelor's degree in business administration from Delta State University. He serves on the Board of Directors of the Delta State University Alumni Foundation, and he and his wife, Sherry, sponsor an annual symposium on international business at Delta State.

Big question. Is he as bent as Davis?

Contact Abney.......Maybe

A little out of date, but Abney & Kuehn still have their noses in the trough.

Not sure about some of the others

Seem to be having a problem answering your comment

So I'll do it this way

It's taking a hell of a lot longer than I expected, but I'm still in the game, we should be in court fairly soon (in solicitor speak) if UPS let it go that far, which I very much doubt, given the level of fraud involved.
