    Not doubt that it varies by facility, typically the Union ones will pay a little more. The bulk guys in my area are around $23/hr. But I've heard they pay as little as $14/hr in some facilities. I bet your HR Department could tell you the max pay at your location.

    It does exist, they started it around 2014 if you take your CDL test in an automatic then you are restricted to only driving automatics. It's a fairly new restriction.

    Because you are way underpaid. Go to the enemy. They pay better. Might never see bulk though. That's the issue.

    Smart. It's only gonna get worse in the beverage industry. You're lucky you've got a bulk route. The small stores are getting even worse with all the labor involved. Gonna be tough for anyone to do their 30 years in that industry now a days
