83-Year-Old Is Longest-Serving UPS Employee

DETROIT -- Marty Peters started delivering packages for UPS in Detroit in 1946.

Sixty years later, the 83-year-old still wears the brown uniform.

Peters began delivering packages March 7, 1946 for 95 cents an hour. He said he appreciated the fact that UPS provided his uniform, including a brown bowtie. "You couldn’t get out the door unless you had a bowtie on," Peters said. "That was a big priority at UPS, shine your shoes and a bowtie."
