Pretty much all drivers here are anti union. They believe the union only protects lazy people and there is no need for the union no more. Some one told me that we're gonna get a big raise to keep the union out. Well sysco mn makes very good money but I doubt we will get as high as them since we're not in the twin cities. I'm 42 out of 56 drivers right now. If I never quit Apperts before I would be 17. I know of 3 guys that are in school right now so they'll be leaving in a year or 2. Another driver told me he will quit when he sees a camera in his truck.
its labor board charges if the company is stupid enough to come out and say we will give you raises to keep the union out (i doubt they are that dumb, they have lawyers that work on this stuff every day) it sounds like a break room rumor from other drivers. it wouldn't suprise me if you made the same scale as the twin cities drivers, it doesn't matter where the stairs are, they suck to go down with a wheeler!
Haven't noticed anything with the merger yet cuz it's only been a couple weeks.
Maybe GT can tell me why again we will have to become union. No one believes me. We are known as Sysco western mn. There argument is well sysco Asian foods isn't union and there owned by sysco. Idk I don't understand anything right now. I just hope it goes good.
sysco plays games with names of different branches of the company, who knows, maybe you won't be union. it depends on the language of THEIR contract in the twin cities. If it was where I am in NY, you would be union as soon as the facility you work out of started covering any of the work previously done by our facility.
I also found out sysco bought 100 acres behind are warehouse to expand. They want to grow are hub which could be a very good thing. Some ppl think they might try and break the union up here.
