Are you going back?

The contract doesn't look as bad as it could have been for those of us already employed. The next generation got the shaft, though.  I see the union won on the meatcutter isssue. It still stinks, nonetheless.

They didn't let Stater's employees vote, so I didn't hang around for the play by play discussion.

Five months ago, I had no job.  Now I have two . :rotflmao  I worked at Staters today and will again on Wednesday and Sunday.  I'll work at Albertson's on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.  This is a temporary deal until I decide which job to quit.  I'm thinking that I want to stay at Staters, but I would have to step down to a Fourth Manager postion to do so.  I can keep my Third Manager position at Albertson's, but I've REALLY lost respect for them. :angry  Tomorrow should be interesting. :eek

I hear that. While working at Stater's, I've heard a bunch of customers say that they wouldn't go back to their old stores.  In fact, I even have a $50 Stater Bros. gift card to spend now, courtesy of the boss to say "thanks" for helping out. :good

Doug, I hope you can work it out to be best for you in the long run..I wasn't a fan of the union strike but I do have feelings for those that were directly effected by it(no love lost on Mickey Kasperian tho :angry )- Staters sounds like you'll have friendlier shoppers than if going back. :good

Ain't life Grand? Treat it that way.
The Love of my Life, Jan.

Knowing several people (including my sister-in-law) who work/have worked for Albertson's, it sounds like they are a really lousy company to work for--even before the strike.  Stater's isn't much better, but They seem a little more compassionate (emphasis on "little") regarding a social life.  I do know that our key carriers have to practically have someone die to get a weekend off, but at least you can get a transfer if you move without much difficulty.

Good Luck with your decision.
