    Where I work I get paid flat rate, hourly and per case. However that is because of the county I am in. If I was in a different county it would be flat rate and case.

    There is one girl on my Thursday route who is a bartender at one of my bars and she is an absolute doll. The girl is an immigrant from Ireland and she is so pretty and so nice about everything I'm going to miss her. If only I could find one like her...(sigh)

    However don't anyone fret side-loaders run out in the rural areas too and sometimes they get to do grocery stores as well!

    This is what a Beverage Distribution company in real life looks like and this is what it does.
    The Miller Genuine truck, is the truck that I used to run into when I ran the Cleveland Heights, Ohio Route. Also the bleach blond woman a 1:15 I've met her in real life as well. I do not work for this company, but I run into them very often out on the street.

    I do I know they are links it's not me (at least I don't think) it's how the forum downloaded them. Do the links not work? It has them attached as attachments. The pictures should come up (I hope) when you click on them. I would have rather them come up as pictures as well like on the previous page, but for what ever reason (I don't know) it didn't happen like that.

    You guys have side loaders that can also hit docks? Holy crap! Can you get me a pic of one of those from the rear that also shows the side bays? I'm straight bulk, no lift gate, docks only (and like it that way) but that's kinda cool!
