Re: Our second homes - Work




> Head receiver at a retail warehouse?  Which one, for what?   

Well, until this week I worked at the Anderson's General
Store: Sawmill.  It's a small chain in Ohio.  I actually was hired two
years ago as a grunt in the warehouse which was fine by me, but they
haven't had a manager in the warehouse for a year, the former head
receiver weas going back to school and mysteriously passing out in the
middle of the floor, so they nominated me for the job without giving me a
raise.  IU was still making less than people they were hiring in.  So I
quit.

Argh!  If I ever see one more RG (returned Goods) form it will be way too
soon.

I would.

Yeah so did I, but none of us were up to OSHA code.  The fork lifts were
not kept up to working condition, and the electric pallet jacks leaked
acid much to the manager's disbelief.

You go girl.  That experience is few and far between.
