<p>In defense of UPS guys and their peers…</p>
<p>I’ve known people in blue collar type jobs who do it because the pay isn’t bad and they get benefits, while continuing to be all around smart people, involved with their families and communities. I have an uncle who has worked for the postal service for thirty years. While his college alumni magazine may not be knocking down his door for a profile, I’d say he’s led a very successful life. His avocations are impressive despite his lack of ability to lend his school a hand with its endowment. It shouldn’t always be about money.</p>
