    Costco around my area pays around $25-26 an hour. Not sure if it'll be the same in PHX.

    Only downside is NO OT. Strickly 8 or 40 per week. Easy job though...just drop and hook. Really nice equipment...KW's and Volvo's. They have some automatics too. Lots of night work. But other than that...a cake job. At least this is how it is in the NE. It may be different in PHX.

    SWIFT is hiring too for the WAL-MART grocery division, from what i hear WM is getting restless because their grocery trailers are getting to the stores late due to a shortage of driver`s.

    Costco in Tracy is hiring for local drivers right now. Not sure on pay though.

    I’ve thought about applying at SuperValu or Schunks in St. Louis. I’m holding back because I’m not sure I want to do the union thing again. Didn’t like it the first time I did it.

    All of these Grocery outfits are pretty much the same. Easy work, excellent pay, and great benefits.

    Giant is Union. They're ALL pretty much Union. Progressive payscale too...so it'll take YEARS before you reach top rate...around 3-5 years. ACME and SuperValu takes about 3-4 years to reach top rate. Wegmans starts around $21-23 I believe and you get a .50 cent raise every 6 month's...no cap. Food Haulers takes about 5 years to reach top rate. Giant I think takes about 8 years and you start off around $19 an hour...top out around $28-30 I believe. Something to think about...if you can't wait YEARS to reach top rate.

    I was on the road this week, paid attention to grocery trucks. The local Kroger chain, Frys, uses Ruan to pull branded trailers. So out here the fleet option would be Albertsons/Safeway.

    There is a chain called Bashas but I rarely see their trucks and haven't gotten a look at a cab yet. They have stores in some interesting places like Bagdad, which is otherwise a mining company town. Likely that agreement goes back a fair bit.

    Funny you mention that, the last month or so every-time I'm in wally world, I'm noticing a pretty evident shortages in certain isles. Produce, bread, some meat, and various other things, and it's pretty regular. Not sure of the cause but I found it interesting. Never have that problem at HEB lol.

    Not quite sure how this is gonna affect the beverage industry...but Coke has been on a strike for about a week now. I know Frito Lay had a chips shortage when they decreased their pay by 33% and a drivers wound up quitting....

    Alabama Coca-Cola strike: Are unions gaining 'momentum'?

    I work for a baking ingredients delivery company. Its not a union job. But easy easy money. Sure I have to lump sum stops but not hard. Bakemark USA. I came from pepsi and it's like night and day comparison.
