No, you just stated your generous intent. You have to order the same amount in order to properly support the UPS driver. Ordering less stuff will reduce the demand for UPS drivers, causing some to be fired. You have now harmed UPS drivers, treating them unfairly.

I’m not so self centered as to think my personal consumption has any particular impact on the demand for UPS drivers.
