Pizza Delivery Drivers Form a Union.
PENSACOLA, Fla. — Eleven Domino’s employees hoping to make a little more dough and get a bigger slice of the profits have formed the nation’s first union of pizza delivery drivers.
The American Union of Pizza Delivery Drivers won recognition from the National Labor Relations Board over the summer as the bargaining agent for drivers at a Pensacola franchise.
The union organizing drive was started by Jim Pohle, a 37-year-old Domino’s driver who said he delivers pizzas because he likes to sleep late, smoke on the job and listen to the radio.
Egads!!!! SMOKING?! On the job!? I think the union needs to protect its members from harmful exposures, don’t you?
Oh, and really now, do you ever expect to get warm pizzas anymore? "Oh, you wanted that warm? Not my job, bub. You know… union rules."
