Finally a post I can agree with.You guys & gals make too much money at $40/hour. Some of that should go to retirees pension increase.
We paved the way for you to earn those wages.

I would find it hard to feel sorry for anyone who supports casinos. At 85 he should know better than to throw it away in Vegas.

You do have a legitimate point but if I was a betting man I would bet prostitutes have nothing to do with it .

You want it go get it.
Aren’t you the day trader guru? Shouldn’t you be loaning ME some money?

I can, but I don't loan money.
I don't care about my paycheck. I don't even look at my hours or pay. I'm sure supervisors are skimming, which is normal.
I'm here for benefits while I can't yet retire.
I know this might be a foreign concept. I actually care about people other than myself, and they deserve at least the inflation-adjusted starting pay of the 80's.

You didn't pave the way. You pulled up the bridge after you crossed it, getting your pension from PT stagnation for 25 years, among other things.You guys & gals make too much money at $40/hour. Some of that should go to retirees pension increase.

You're lucky we still honor your pension payments.

Nah man, that’s how you kill the middle class. Giving raises to lower income jobs while the middle class gets nothing. Now the price of everything has gone up so companies can offset that loss. Houses are up 300% in the last 20 years. Keep your damn raises, lower the cost of living.

I parked back of some cars to deliver a bait shop once, the guy asked me if I was an idiot, I said “ you must be looking in the mirror”. I got called in for that. Like the other times.

I had a guy once that was going to kick my ass and every UPS drivers ass because I actually pulled into a parking space -one of the few times I never double parked and apparently he wanted that place. I had him follow me over to the police station (he thought he was in the right) and I had the local Police Chief straighten his ass out. Mind you - this was in a small town with no parking meters or painted parking spots. Little did the idiot know that the Police Chief and I were on excellent terms. He was a gun nut and I delivered gun stuff to him 2 or 3 days a week. He used to laugh at me when I would double park in front of the COP Shop blocking in his squad car.

That is hilarious. One thing I learned from this job is that some people will lose their damn minds over parking. Most of the houses in my area have driveways and garages but a lot of them have boats and RV’s parked in them, so everyone parks their cars in the street. This makes parking very limited. When I do find a spot to park so I can walk off the 8-12 stops on the block I’ll have someone pull up and wait for me to move in no time. They will literally sit there blocking the street just to wait for that parking spot. I get, “Yo! When are you gonna be done?!” and “Hey that’s MY spot!” all the time. If I’m not parked here I’m blocking the street so you’re just gonna have to wait or park somewhere else.I had a guy once that was going to kick my ass and every UPS drivers ass because I actually pulled into a parking space -one of the few times I never double parked and apparently he wanted that place.

Had one lady go INSANE because I parked in front of her driveway to deliver to her house. Coincidently it was a box of Hello Fresh I was delivering, just a different Karen. She pulled up behind me and honked as I was getting out of the truck with her crap food. “WHY ARE YOU BLOCKING MY DRIVEWAY!?!” So I can deliver this to your house, is that alright? “NO! MOVE NOW! NEVER BLOCK MY DRIVEWAY!” I said alright, I set the box of Hello Fresh on the hood of her Prius and walked back to my truck as she was screaming at me, “HEY! WHAT THE HELL?! HEY! HEY!” As I drove off I was watching my mirror to see her reaction. This woman didn’t even get out of her car to get the box off her hood. She was so mad that she just gunned it into her driveway causing the box of Hello Fresh to go flying off into the street. It looked like some liquid crap in the box exploded because the pavement got all wet when it hit the ground. I was laughing so hard I had to find somewhere to pull over to contain myself.
Anyway, whenever I get Hello Fresh boxes I’m always prepared for the worst.
What is "Hello Fresh"?

A garbage food subscription service for people too lazy to prepare their own meals.
I can't remember the name of one of the other companies but I know we do deliver for them
It's a fresh dog food.
