    Around me central is who the turds drive for.
    As in those who have screwed the pooch elsewhere and they still think they can drive.
    The equipment is raggedy, drivers are raggedy, and there’s no pride found in the vicinity of a central transport truck or facility.
    If that’s the best you can do, take it, at least till you get something better.

    They're paying in the 11ish to mid-teens in Tifton, per Indeed and a few other sites.

    And then you work your way up into management, and you're blowing his pay out of the water unquestionably.

    So...yeah. That's depressing.

    Just ones that I knew were false. For instance, my job's indeed numbers are hilarious.

    These were job offers, too. Not just reported incomes.

    Be a lotta irate interviewees leaving if they lied too much. Lol

    If you know those were false then you have to suspect all the rest don’t you?

    No I don’t. I just found it odd. That’s all.
