    With Visions of $15 per micky d's uniforms dancing in their heads. Do you think anyone really wants a job they have to do something physical for. Keeping in mind the number of job hunters who could pass a pre-screening UA, or random one, Narrows the field a bit.

    I spent 11 years there and let me tell you.. with cyber monday extending to black friday it became madness. Volume projections were so far off every year. They're accurate 2 days prior to the volume hitting a city because of all the technology. But that does nothing for staffing planning. I miss the job, and at the same time I don't.

    Union jobs baby.. I am always surprised when I see a UPS driver out past 1800.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
