[QUOTE="bones, post: 330235, member: 8429"] I agree with sober, I'm in management, spent 7 yrs p/t and 15 yrs friend/t. It was not right to take so much from the "unborn" to pay for the "sins" (strong word maby should be mistakes) of the generations before them. However, we will all pay for it, if you work in any large building anywhere you know turnover runs over 50% for the year and in many places hits over 70%, this is before we are a true minimum wage employer (minimum wage will continue to go up) that doesn't offer benifits. The real problem is we get almost all friend/t positions, both hourly and management from the p/t's we hire. For the next 5 years go look at the people we are hiring to work nights at a very tough job ( I was a driver and liked it much more than working in the building) for close to miminum wage with no benefits, these will be the future $80,000 (probably close to $100,000 with all benefits included) a year drivers and where we will get our supervisors, managers and above. I guess we can get our management from off the street right out of college, forgot, we have already started that and it is failing miserably, turnover over 80% for these people. [/QUOTE]
