“It was a way to pay my way through college,” Abney, who loaded trucks at night starting in March 1974, said in the release. “At the time, I had no idea then that I’d be leading the company someday but I could tell UPS was a place where a solid work ethic was appreciated and there were great opportunities for advancement.”
