Valdosta man not the typical UPS driver

VALDOSTA - Butch Traylor has been delivering packages in south Georgia for 25 years, but he&#39;s not your typical United Parcel Service driver. <br> <br> He&#39;s a graduate student at Valdosta State University and recently wrote an op-ed piece in The New York Times, criticizing the Justice Department for asking delivery workers like him to report on ``suspicious&#39;&#39; activities. <br> <br> The article, headlined ``This Guy Won&#39;t Spy,&#39;&#39; gave his view on the Terrorism Information and Prevention System, which asks delivery-service employees to report any ``suspicious&#39;&#39; activities. <br> <br> In the piece, Traylor admitted that he&#39;s seen some ``unusual things in his day,&#39;&#39; but noted ``I&#39;ve always felt it is just a little un-American to pay too much attention to what my customers are doing or receiving. I worry about whose definition of &#39;suspicious&#39; is going to be used.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Traylor -- who is studying public administration -- said his opinion was not necessarily company policy, but he received a letter of commendation.
