It will be tendered tommorrow.

October 6th will be my last day of employment with Interstate Brands Corporation.  You know who they are without realizing it, Wonder Bread, Hostess Cake, Dolly Madison, Homepride, Beefsteak, Butternut, Merita, Holsum, and lots of others.

I'll have been there 19 years, 9 months, three weeks and a bit.

I'll start training for my new career on October 8th. 

Hopefully, I'll beat receivership by a week or more.

Holy *feces* I'm kinda scared.

Why do you hate endosperm?

:)

Good luck PB.  Hang in there.

Winner.

They tell me it'll pass. Hang in there.

Which is what?

That's quite a time to be with a company. 

Hope things go well for you in the months ahead! 

Once again - best of luck PB!

Ummm....because of my age and level of education, I have chosen to become a transport driver for hazardous materials.

The pay is good, the hours are a bit less than I work now, and I will get 2 consectutive days off.  I've not had that in the 31 years I've been working.

Thanks you MBSHB! ;D [sm_drink] [sm_drink] [sm_drink] [sm_drink] [sm_drink] [sm_drink]

Hazmat driver...interesting...time to get my CDL.

M??? B??? S??? Hobbit B??? ???

Best of luck bud.  I'm sure things will work out for you.

Sometimes The best outcomes can come from it initially adversity.

What that dude said. (Whatever that means.)

good luck.

LOL!  Talk-n-type-n-scan-n-eat.

BAM!

Eagle supplies the link.

Karma

That only narrows it down to two possibilities--one more creative than the other.  :D

Good Luck Paunchy!

Good Luck, PB!

You're trying to get me to type out something I refuse to type or even link to directly. :nono: 

The 4th post in the thread, second post by PaunchyBald.  That's the most specific I'll be. :P

Yes, we're fortunate to have hired PB to transport our hazmat refuse from the Blader Industries, Inc. R&D subsidiary, and to deliver proprietary hazmat for our various manufacturing operations.

You can only imagine how dangerous all of this material must be and why we needed a true 'bona fide' for the job.  It's not "North Korea" dangerous, but if you were to ask if "it is like being on the Korean peninsula," I'd have to say you are getting warm.

I must admit, the fact that he enjoys golf chautauqua and has in his possession a copy of the secret formula for the Twinkie did factor into our hiring decision.

he usually has his Twinkie in his hand whilst driving. ;)

letter of resignation?

i just walked in one day and said i quit. [sm_dunno]

Letter of resignation means; 5 weeks 3 3/4 days of vacation pay, 3 3/4 days of personal time that I will be paid.  Can't leave that much money on the table.  'Specially, since I earned it.

Right on, right on! ;D

Good luck with the new career.

Ted

Damn skippy!  Stuff that loot in a sock and save it for some out of town golf  ;)

Good luck PB, you'll be fine. HazMat is good pay.

Does the letter get it for you, or the part where you show up for two weeks after tendering said letter?

And what kind of hazardous materials are we talking about?  Hospital waste?  Radioactive waste?  Some say that, in your hands, golf clubs are hazardous materials.

Whatever it is, it can't be any more hazardous than his current cargo.

I dunno, Gleek.  I've seen him play ... and that was before he "got worse" and quit the game.

The part where I show up for 1 week after tendering said letter. :)  As for the hazmat, it will most likely be fuels.

Best of luck to you PB.  Be safe on the road.

Best wishes PB. [sm_beertoast]

So has it been submitted? Do you feel any better?

I submitted the letter this morning.  3:05am.  I've been speaking with supervision and lower level managment all day. (my work day that is)

Their's is shock and dismay.  Disbelief even.  I for one cannot believe that all of these people think that the union and company, who are still not talking and have no plans to do so, will come to any sort of agreement within 5 days.  Especially when the 'talking points' are still in different time zones.

Managment has submitted the paper work to the bankruptcy court to satisfy creditors if union alignment with company wishes are not achieved.

I think I've ridden this horse to death.  It may have a couple more miles, but I'm not counting on it.

I have been told that I would be welcome back, if, the company makes it through this crisis that determines it's very existance, and I feel that I've made a serious mistake.

In fact this message was interupted by a call from managment.  (I'm home and on my own time)  I may be getting an early release, which would not make me unhappy.  As long as I get paid!

Having given more notice than required, and not having burned bridges...................

Now they show you some love.   [sm_cussing]

I have a shirt that reminds everybody of those things.

Being the Minnesnowta Girl that I am, I guess that's not too off-target. lol

I find it hard to believe that they would actually be shocked.  Not doubting you, but their sanity.  With all the changes they're making, and with all the negative increases for their employees, expecting everyone to be fine with that and stay with them doesn't make much sense. 

Continued well wishes for you in regard to the time ahead!

Thank you young Lady.  I know that a percentage of my posts may be offensive to you and I apologize for that.  That said, I'm ain't changin'.   ;D

Now that reminds me of that song "Don't go changing, to try & please me"........is it a Billy Joel song!!! ;D ;D ;D

Like you would know how to begin regardless!  ;)



And it was a good move to not burn the bridge.  Its a small world and you never know what may come.

"........
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are"  [sm_buddies]


Bill is one of my favs  8)

ever one of ya's is merciless.  I think that's what I like the most abouts ya! [sm_whip]

Mine too. I can name a tune in one line.

Oh yeah? Try to name this one:

Say Goodbye to Hollywood. ;)

[sm_shock] Holy crap! I came thisclose to giving you this line:


but decided to go the comedy route. That was like a Carnac the Magnificent bit.

LOL, I wish I could say great minds think alike but I am by no means a great or have a mind.

You're welcome. :)

Not really - or I guess, maybe possibly, but nothing stands out right now; I don't get offended that easily.  And it's not like I harbor it and hold onto it, and let it get me angry.  It stings for a few moments, and then I remind myself to let it go.  The thing that is most offensive to me is taking my Lord's name in vain or using a variant thereof.  But I don't see overmuch of that, so - *shrug*.  Also, I usually know when to stop viewing a thread before it has a chance to become something I don't want to read, or can at least tell which posts to pass over and which will be more to the subject at hand, etc.  But thank you, and you're more than forgiven if there was anything.
