    Had a market manager up in Rantoul, Illinois come find me last week to thank me. Said he was not going to be around this week and was catching everyone he could. Some of our stores have little goody bags they hand out, all DCs will have food and giveaways.

    Not really a ra-ra guy. But it does not suck that they feed us. And I do think a good portion of our managers in DCs and Stores value the things private fleet provides.

    Haven't kept track on which of the changes this spring have been rescinded but I heard the two tier wage was.
    What change or benefits remain that favor a tenured driver compared to a new or the not yet hired?
    4 yrs left to go and am thinking of moving from current private fleet to WM.
    I'm home nightly but work weekends and holidays, (holidays by choice), earn 100K+ w great bennies.
    Would work out of Menomonee DC

    We have a cook out at each terminal AND draw 15 names a day to give $100 to the lucky drivers! We are also having training all week and all participants get a very nice gift.
