so i goofed today at my job and grabbed the wrong trailer.

Was anybody surprised how fast those kiosk showed up? First travel plaza headed north on I87 is a good example , kiosk showed up and two employees cooking and that's it. Used to be 6 people in the Burger King.

 

I have every benefit plus some compared to a similar union job, unless you’re referring to the “less pay no benefits” thing in which case what you say makes sense.

 

I didn't mean to start a pro-union versus anti-union argument. I was just trying to explain that the term right-to-work is misleading. It is not meant to give workers rights, it is meant to starve unions until they disappear.

I have no dog in this fight. I work for an excellent non-union company, but I like to call out politicians for trying to trick the public also.

 

What happened?

 

That's fine. If its too slow with the kiosks then people like me will go somewhere else. Maybe they'll get the hint if enough people do it. Maximizing some billion dollar companies profits is not high on my priority list.

 

They were going to do it anyway. Every company wants to reduce labor costs, no matter what. The market demands greater and greater efficiency every year. Automation threatens jobs from fast food to truckers to accountants and even lawyers these days. And it will continue to get worse.

 

Never happened to me,thankfully,but
I have nightmares about it sometimes.I've picked up trailers that are listed as 40k loads,and on the way to scale,I'm thinking this trailer can't possibly be 40k.
Did I grab the wrong trailer?
Thinking about going back Only 40
miles to rehook ,stresses me out.
At the scales,I Have the right trailer,and the load scales out easily..bol weight is way off.

 

One would think they would double check the numbers before they leave for a long journey. That was a pretty stupid thing to do. Wow

 

My commit was more about the people who got fired because of it . How is 15 dollar a hour working if you no longer have your job .
