My Company Is Better Than Yours

Yes, through the years I have heard this also. But back in the 70`s - 80`s, most of the companies were compatible, with pay. For newdrivers to think there company is a better one than another, because the other company has to Drive/Unload, and they dont have to, Your wrong. Example- Sysco Foods, Drive/Unload/Inside Delivery-as too, just drive local, and let the company unload, and you stand there and watch. Stand there and watch= $12hr. Drive/Unload/Inside Del.=$24hr. If I were a young kid, starting to drive, Im going to want the $24hr job. Ill work hard and make a good living at it. It seems to me, the younger gen. Does not want to work hard. When I was there age, I worked my butt off. I had 2 jobs, at the age of 10 - 13 , I had a paper route, Yep, a bicycle with the bag on the handle bars, riding around delivering newspapers, and the same time worked at the major hotels as a bussboy. As a bussboy, I worked weekends 10-12 hrs a day. My dad worked driving a truck for 35 years, and never missed work, Went to work everyday. I think it is how we are brought up. My dad is gone now, but I thank him everyday for teaching me the values in life. He was a Great example for me. If some think there company is better than anothers, wrong, Its what you put into the company, that makes them a better one.

 

Im not agreeing with this, because when we were younger, I can not remember anyone just laying around doing nothing. We did not have any technology like there is today, but everyone was always outside doing something. My son -in -law works for a Power Plan, Yes, Power Plant, in management, and he is only 35 years old, and He says They can not find any of the younger Generation to work for them. When they hire one, He misses work, calls in sick, No show. He says they keep the older ones, because there here everyday. They do want the younger ones, but cant keep them.
How`s this, $90,000 starting pay. Here is another one, our grand daughters husband, has a chance to start working there, our son-in-law Will get him in. He will not do it, do to the fact that he will have to work sometimes 7 days a week. He just lost his job, now they live with his mom and dad, Oh, Yes they do have a baby. He does not want to work that much. Maybe in your eyes you see a different picture, but not me. I do not consider every kid out there lazy, but I see a majority of the ones we know, are.
