Day mariner games are the worst part. Mike usually needs help on those days. Once you learn where you can park. It's easy peasy.

I'm going to give you a blast from the past. it's 1988 and I had 13 years in as a full time driver. And everybody,
and I mean EVERYBODY, preload, delivery sups, center managers, and drivers really cared. And all the bull
went away. Honestly, everybody and I mean everybody was on the same page. And on Christmas eve morning
the preload was having a catered breakfast and EVERYBODY, delivery sups, center managers and drivers were invited
to join in. And as a driver I went out Christmas eve and I was absolutely determined to deliver every package on the
car that day. And when I came in there a catered spread and we all, and I mean all, delivery sups, center managers
and drivers socialized and had a real sense of pride of getting the job done.
I feel bad for all of you today. Reading about how things are now really makes me sad. There was a great feeling
of teamwork. It was really a great place to work. I'm sorry it has all gone away.
Reminds me of some of my Christmas seasons. I have to add though that the week following Christmas when the layoffs began it was back to normal---us vs. them. The month or two after Christmas was always my worst time. You never knew what added attractions would be tossed in your truck.

Damn. LOL I really like Lucke..he was the teacher in training along with Paul. Both are outstanding teachers. They made a 5 day training fit into 2 and a half days and made it fun. I also ran into Gordon at Redmond. Was good to see him again.

Well yeah sure, that was the norm. You went back to butting heads. But I never really hated anybody. Everybody
understood how the game was played. In the 32 years I put in and Lord knows how many delivery sups and center
managers I went through there was only one guy I truly disliked. And his fellow managers didn't like him either.
Everybody else was just trying to do the best they could.

My worst center manager was a women (NO @Ms PacMan I don't hate all women). She and I were like oil and water.

M L did my orientation back in 1989. Good guy, but couldn't do a route now a days. Paul was my sup during the strike. That dirty dog couldn't do a route back then.
