Barley pop is a suitable lubricant.No mushrooms, pepperoni if you please on Thursday lunch, although I do also like mushrooms on pizza. You might want to start up a regular pizza day with friends. Can be very therapeutic. Of course a couple of beers helps with that too.
I’m all ears buddy, don’t cost a thing. I’m like an ambulance chasing lawyer, the more you talk, the more money WE’RE gonna make.Roll, if you have the time, I'll gladly tell you all the things I feel that I deserve. Bring food and a sleeping bag though, it may take a while.
That often happens when companies merge. I had Yellow, Roadway, USF Bestway and Reddaway all as clients before the merger. I thought the Yellow system was the least viable of the 4...but they didn't ask me.
No, never had a hole in my pocket for the other hand like some people did..
Mothballs, he's old remember.
Kudos to you for reading the entire piece. I skimmed through his statement and some of the exhibits. I saw enough there to know he wasn't telling the whole story, and at the same time enough to be convinced that they absolutely didn't know they were closing the doors back on June 7th. Which is the crux of the argument over a WARN Act violation as I understand it.
Hawkins puts letter out in May” we may not make it past August.”
Ex, there were way, way more than a "couple of hundred" who were doing all they could to save the company, and for years not weeks. If the number you suggest were true, I would be the only one in my terminal. That isn't accurate at all; I had quite a few who went above and beyond every day. What was surprising to me is that we are the senior citizens, not the millennials.
Unfortunately in years past management would overlook the slackers and go to a hard worker to get something done to save grief for themselves.
That's been my observation and experience as well. Unfortunately, that doesn't address the problem in a comprehensive way, which is what needed to happen. Concept: EVERYBODY rows the boat, not some just keeping a seat warm..
I hope that's not the case, but as I said, I didn't have time to watch them. I was very busy taking care of business and trying to earn new business.
I'm not surprised, a different era, a different upbringing, a different mindset. Sure there are exceptions but generally stereotypes are what they are for a reason.
300 plus terminals and only 4 to 6 per terminal. I think you put your confidence level extremely low,
The socialist system that makes all labor of equal value promotes mediocrity. The employee giving 100% everyday gets the same reward as the " show up, do as little as possible, punch out" employee. Work ethic and pride in performance have no value and cannot be rewarded. And then there's the whole seniority thing.
Sadly, I agree with you. However, those of us who give and gave 100% (or more) get something that the "slugs" don't That is a sense of pride, self-respect and accomplishment that they don't. Yes, it would be very nice if that translated into cash, but that's the way it goes.
Those slugs were proud and felt like they accomplished something every time they punched in and out, socking it to the man, getting their 15% back one way or another. How they had any self-respect is beyond me.
