An 8% cut would shave $200 a week off the employee’s income? Let’s see...that means 1% would be $25.... So times one hundred....carry the seven.....why......that’s like $2500 a week!.....$10,000 a month.....$120,000 a year!....what if that’s net?......Ho-Ho indeed!

And then there are the “work rules,” which probably require that this guy just drive the truck, and have a ride along “helper” to move the product from the truck to the store while good old Doug sits on his ass in the truck playing with his iPad (or maybe himself)! He’s 49. I hope the rest of his life is spent in an unsuccessful search for another job! Payback should be a bitch! It’s going to be “interesting” when all the RATs “feelings” about things hit hard up against the “realities” of economics.

More than I made as a Corporate Vice President / Logistics Manager responsible for a $22 Million Dollar Yearly Budget overseeing a four State territory. We had 24/7 operations with my butt on the line if any Vendor ever screwed up.

Boy oh boy, did I make the wrong choice of careers, but with my sweet tooth I would be a three hundred pound Diabetic by now if I was a Hostess driver.

A guy driving a delivery truck makes more than 98% of the airline pilots in the US. Hmmm, seems odd.

They are probably working off a fully loaded cost rather than just the worker's salary.
