EVER WONDER ABOUT THESE LOBBIESTS PEDIGREES?? SEE 2ND PARAGRAPH!

Welcome to 2007! It's a new year, and it brings lots of change. There is one piece of news, however, that is a real sign of how times have changed. Recent personal cutback, early retirements, and executive buyouts at UPS has impacted one of our Postcom Board members. I'm referring to Wayne Schley, who had represented UPS on our board for 3 years. Wayne has informed me that he is ending his association with UPS, and will finally get out to Palm Springs, California to finish that lifelong work he calls a vacation home. Rome wasn't built in a day, and I can assure you the same has been true of the "Schley villa."

Wayne was one of the first people I had gotten to meet after taking over the chief executive reins at PostCom some 23 years ago. Most will remember Wayne for his service as a Commissioner at the Postal Rate Commission, and a long-time staffer in the service of Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK). While on the Hill, he served as Republican Staff Director of the Senate Post Office and Civil Service Sub-Committee of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, and the same position on the Senate Rules Committee. I will remember him always as a colleague and friend. He's assured me he'll be around from time to time just to make sure he'll still get his mail delivered. In the words of his Gov: "I'll be back."
