The meme wasn’t even funny.

Thankfully no one gives a about what you think...

What else you got?

You cared enough to respond to me. Anybody who blindly pledges allegiance to a single party is a sheep. So again it was a dumb meme.

LOL… I guess you’re offended by this.

Struck a nerve??? Baaahhhh!

I’m not offended by it. Just calling it for what it is.

This guy is a huge tool.

No I'm not; I do the Chocolate Time thing as an ice breaker to miserable office gals etc-- works like a charm and takes 3 seconds. It builds up something called Good Will Value that sups like to burn all day long. I have a big 'country loop' where there aren't any restaurants etc to take lunch so a few minutes break giving donkeys and horses carrots is my choice. I only log about 20 minutes of that a day as all animals aren't up by the fences etc. Being nice to people and animals on a route doesn't make anybody a tool. What's your problem?

I didn't really read through all this but I haven't seen it mentioned. You keep saying equal pay for equal work. It's not equal because the full timer is putting 2 to 3 more times the strain on their body. That adds up over time. And 2 or 3 more times the chance to be injured. Am I wrong?

The amount of hours is certainly more but is the strain on the body more? I am not sure. The pacing of the work is definitely much faster in the hub compared to most driver duties. You are always moving at a constant pace in the hub especially in the unload. It could be argued that the strain on the body comparing the two is a lot closer than some of us want to admit. Rate/speed of work compared to length of work.
