We are pleased to welcome to the Speaker’s Table our amicable Invocator Mr. Eric Nelson to tell us about the “SAGA OF THE UPS.” United Parcel Service is an American multinational shipping and receiving and supply chain management company founded in 1907. Originally known as the American Messenger Company specializing in telegraphs, UPS has grown to become a Fortune 500 company and one of the world's largest shipping couriers. Eric has promised us a review of this world-class shipping/receiving/supply chain company.

Invocator and Introducer: James Booth Burr, Jr., Esq.

UPS (1) What does it mean when the flag at UPS is at half-mast? They're hiring.

UPS (2): How do you know that it really is a UPS employee that goes postal? The bullets hit the wrong building three days late.

UPS (3): A friend wants to give up being a UPS-man to become a comedian, but his delivery is awful.
