Every 6 months you got paid a bonus of an average weeks pay depending on your reliability.... if you were 100% you got a full average weeks pay, if you were less you got less... it was just a little something to look forward to.
Good luck Gretta. I used to be with Driveline but not anymore and am making at least $2 more per hour doing the same work with another company. It was fun working with DL doing cards etc.
Oh, it's those bonuses. I'd never heard them termed anything before.
This is what's was in the email that they sent to me.
As we are all aware, the economy is posing challenges for everyone. Driveline needs to be financially responsible and proactive. To that end, the company has reviewed its business goals, objectives and processes in order to find ways to protect the future well-being of the company.
As a result of this analysis Driveline has decided to eliminate both the Great and Really Great eMerchandiser Bonus programs effective Jan 01, 2010.
We appreciate all of your hard work, and we know we will have your support as we all strive for continued business success.
Merchandising The Puget Sound Area and Loving it! Love what you do, do what you love!
Apparently also a new CEO and upper management group are part of the changes.
Wow,i wonder if that means the 3% yearly raise or .27 cents on your hire date will be done away with too?
Kelly,I laughed when I read that bit in the email about us supporting the bonus cut. I don't think it was a smart move on their part to cut the bonuses out. It was a great incentive to get work done one time,without that incentive I'm sure there will be many late plans by some..
Yes i guess that $3.00 safeway bonus i used to get every 3 or 4 months will be gone now. My Dm emailed out a blind email to everyone and said (when she was having another meltdown day) that every time a person does not show up for a job Driveline is fined $2000.00 per person. It makes you wonder how much they must get from these companies for a job if we're paid just below 10.00 per hr and they want it done within a few hrs or less.
I've been working for DL now for 4 yr & I have had no problems. I have a great DM & average about 10hr wk which is fine with me as I only want to work PT anyway. I hate to see those bonuses go though. And I agree, now there is no incentive for some reps to do the job on time or at all. I know that when they go through a hiring phase there are always blanket e-mails going out about reps not completing the jobs on time. Apparently this is a real problem with some hirees. I take the job seriously, enjoy the work & am satisfied with the pay. It took me a year to find this job & I'm grateful to have it. There is nothing else in this area.
I wish i could get 10 hrs a week,that would be great! I'm doing good if i get 1 hr a week,sometimes every other week i get 2 hrs.
Kelly, you need to get a Family Dollar and/or Dollar General. That is where a good bit of the work is at. I had about two months were I was getting between 20 and 30 hrs per week, however that was due to a rep quitting and my manager needing someone to fill in until she could hire someone for those stores. She also had to get permission from the company for me to have that many hours per week. Like Gayle, I also have a wonderful DM.
Driveline I laugh at them HA! and I am going to end it at that.
Just got another email saying they are going to do away with the 401K company match,but that you could still put money into your 401K and how this will be better for the company.
I saw the email about the 401K. I didn't even know they had a 401K to begin with.
Well,just noticed my Safeway DVD job this week has been cut down to 18 minutes instead of 90 minutes according to the print out sheet for the manager to sign when i'm done and what's on the dashboard.
I don't have much next week. I remember that happening once before, but I think it was more how I scheduled the work rather than that they don't have anything. Usually, I can fill in a whole day with Driveline work, and sometimes part of another. Occasionally, in the past, the whole week was crowded because of resets. I got so much grief from going over on one assignment I do frequently, that I just stop what I'm doing when the time is up. Of course, I pace myself in tasks so it won't be a complete mess, but I'm unwilling now to do such a good job if I'm going to be called a "frequent" offender by my DM. I could make some of my assignments look so much better. Now I just look for other companies to give me work for the rest of the week. Most of the time, I have them. There is a big lull next week.
Just got hired on by this company, sounds like they can keep you pretty busy. I like to have a regular schedule and know what I am doing each day so this sounds perfect. I have a FD and a DG, any feedback would be great!
FD and DG are where most of the work is for this company.

Leicester City record massive earnings from UEFA Champions League
By Daniel KarellOct 20, 2017, 11:52 AM EDT
Leicester City's UEFA Champions League campaign may have ended without a trophy, but the Premier League side pipped the European champions in the bank account.
UEFA announced on Friday that Leicester City earned $96,167,125 during the Champions League run that ended in the quarterfinals, the farthest of any Premier League club. Real Madrid, the back-to-back champions, earned a slightly less $95,385,679. Much of the difference comes from TV rights deals in England, which pays out more to teams compared to the TV rights deal in Spain.
[ FOLLOW: All of PST's PL coverage ]
Juventus, the Italian giant, earned the most of any club in last year's Champions League, making a whopping $129,965,357, mostly thanks to the TV rights again.
UEFA confirm Leicester City earned €81.7m (£73.2m) in for thier participation in the last season's Champions League. pic.twitter.com/pjaG01L6vk

The end of an outright ban on tail docking for dogs is a step closer after Holyrood's environment committee backed exemptions for specific breeds.
The government wants to amend legislation to let vets shorten the tails of some working dogs.
MSPs on the committee backed the plans by seven votes to three.
A consultation showed widespread support for docking for some breeds, but Green MSP Mark Ruskell slammed the plans as "cruel and unnecessary".
The plans will now to go to a vote of the full chamber. SNP and Conservative members of the committee backed the amendment, suggesting there will be a majority in favour of the plans.
The Scottish government brought in the ban on tail docking in 2007 as part of the Animal Health and Welfare (Scotland) Act, becoming the only part of the UK with a blanket ban.
However, ministers now propose bringing in exemptions similar to those elsewhere in the UK for working dogs such as spaniels, hunt point retrievers and terriers.
The environment committee backed changes, which would be limited to the end third of the tail, after hearing evidence from Environment Secretary Roseanna Cunningham.
She told them there was evidence that working dogs were at increased risk of injury without having their tails docked.
She said: "The regulations ensure as far as is reasonably possible that only dogs likely to be used for lawful shooting purposes can have their tails shortened and that veterinarians are the only persons who may carry out the procedure."
The minister conceded that tail docking was "a highly emotive issue", but said the proposed amendment would "place the responsibility for making the decision in the ends of those who are, in my view, best placed to make an informed professional judgement".
Image caption Roseanna Cunningham said she recognised tail docking was a "highly emotive issue"
The move came after 92% of those who took part in a Government consultation supported docking for these breeds.
Scottish Government Veterinary Adviser Andrew Voas told the committee he estimated around 80 puppies would have their tails docked a year to avoid having to carry out one amputation on an older dog due to injury, which would cause more pain than the earlier procedure.
Ms Cunningham denied that the government was creating a loophole in the law, despite conceding that some puppies with shortened tails would "clearly" end up as pets.
Mr Ruskell, who opposed the plans in the committee, said vets and welfare charities had warned against this as a "retrograde practice".
He said: "The amputation of hundreds of puppies' tails just to avoid one amputation in an adult dog is anti-science and nothing more than a sop to vested interests.
"Today's vote in committee is disappointing but the fight goes on ahead of a full vote in the Holyrood chamber."
Labour members Claudia Beamish and David Stewart also voted against the plans at the committee.
Fellow Labour MSP Colin Smyth said the plan was "disgusting" and "cruel", adding that the Scottish governments record on animal welfare was "appalling".


Hello everyone and thanks for checking into our blog. I will be updating this on a weekly basis with tips for your grilling and smoking along with some recipes I have put together in my 20 some odd years of being in the restaurant business.
I will also answer any questions you may have. Just drop me an email at ChefBryan@pigstybbq.com and I will answer you on the blog. Also, I will select a question of the week and that lucky person will receive a coupon to use on your next visit to Pig Sty BBQ.
Just to give you a little background on myself. I began doing competition BBQ many moons ago when I lived in the Kansas City area. As you all know, Kansas City is the BBQ Capital of the World. My very good friend from college, Jeff Stehney, needed help with the team. Not the cooking, but lift this, carry that, move this type of help. We were fortunate to start winning competitions with over 100 teams and State Championships. We finished the year winning the prestigious American Royal World Championship in the Open Division with over 350 teams from throughout the world. The following year we won the Invitational beating the Best of the Best.
Shortly thereafter, Jeff opened Oklahoma Joe's BBQ in Kansas City and hired me as the Smokehouse Manager. He taught me how to do competition quality bbq in a restaurant. Within three years, Joe's was rated as the No. 1 BBQ restaurant in the world by Zagat's Guide to Restaurants. Today, Joe's BBQ Kansas City is arguably one of the Best BBQ Restaurants in the World. A few years after I left, Anthony Bourdain named Joe's one of the 13 Places to Eat Before You Die.
Three years later, Jeff recommended me for a position in London UK and I opened and oversaw the day to day operations for Bodean's BBQ. We opened a total of five restaurants in six and a half years and had very good success. Twice we were nominated for Best American Restaurant in London. We also were chosen as having the Best Ribs This Side of the Atlantic by Time Out and one of my sandwiches was named Best Sandwich in London by one of the leading restaurant critic in London.
After stops in the Caribbean and South Africa, I have been in South Florida for coming up on four years and I am loving it.
Again, thanks for checking into my blog and I hope that I can help you with any questions you might have with your grilling and smoking.

Euronychodon ("European claw tooth") is the name given to a genus of coelurosaur dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Europe and Asia. Euronychodon is known from teeth only. These are similar to those of another coelurosaur tooth genus, Paronychodon.

Species
Two species of Euronychodon have been named to date.

E. portucalensis (named for Portugal, from Portucale, an old name of Porto): the remains consist of three teeth. In 1988 referred to Paronychodon lacustris, they were later considered diagnostic enough for them to represent a distinct genus and species. They were found at the locality of Taveiro, dated as Campanian-Maastrichtian (about 70 million years old). The type species of Euronychodon, E. portucalensis was named and described in 1991 by Miguel Telles Antunes and Denise Sigogneau-Russell. The generic name is a contraction of "Europe" and Paronychodon. The holotype CEPUNL TV 20, is one of the teeth. It is 1.8 millimetres long, recurved and strongly elongated with a D-shaped cross-section. The other two teeth, CEPUNL TV 18 and CEPUNL TV 19, are the paratypes.
E. asiaticus (named for Asia): the referred fossils consist of seven teeth, found in the Bissekty Formation of Uzbekistan, (dated to about 92 million years ago) and named and described by Lev Nesov in 1995. The holotype is CCMGE N 9/12454; the other six teeth are the paratypes. The type tooth has fourteen vertical ridges on the inner side. It is usually considered a nomen dubium. It is much earlier than E. portucalensis, which means it could belong to a different animal. Nesov himself considered Euronychodon a pure form taxon and suggested such deviant teeth grew accidentally, when tooth pairs happened to develop on closing jaw bone sutures with juvenile individuals.

Systematics
Being a tooth-taxon, the true affinities of Euronychodon are hard to determine. The teeth are similar to the better-known Paronychodon, which may be a senior synonym. Paronychodon was originally described as similar to Zapsalis, another tooth taxon often considered synonymous with Richardoestesia (a possible dromaeosaurid). It later had many different identifications: as a coelurid, an ornithomimosaur, a dromaeosaurid, an archaeopterygid and a troodontid — though it could also be another kind of coelurosaurian theropod. While most researchers have therefore considered such taxa as representing simply indeterminate theropod teeth, a small consensus has found them to belong to the Deinonychosauria. One study showed that the tooth enamel is identical to that found in Byronosaurus, a troodontid.

Palaeobiology
The remains indicate a small animal, estimated at around two meters (6.6 feet). The teeth indicate a carnivorous or insectivorous diet. Taveirosaurus was found at the same locality.

Field Day festival returns to Victoria Park over Jubilee weekend
As the capital is finally hit with a well-overdue blast of decent weather, many are succumbing to the vice-like grip of festival fever.
If you're one of those already itching for some outdoor musical shenanigans, fear not, because one of the highlights of the summer is just around the corner.
The eclectic one-day party that is Field Day returns for its sixth year to Victoria Park next Saturday, June 2 – offering all the festival fun without the camping and unwashed crowds.
It will kick-start a monstrous four-day bank holiday weekend, so it's more than likely festival-goers will be swept up in a mega-strength Jubilee-powered tidal wave of good vibes.
And the line-up doesn't look too shabby either, featuring Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand, US post-rockers Tortoise and electro-pop maestros Metronomy to name just a few.
The man behind the festival, Tom Baker, 35, head honcho at promoters Eat Your Own Ears, said: "I'm really excited about the line-up, some of the artists we have been trying to book for many years, like R. Stevie Moore, Liars, Beirut. We ask Franz every year and they've never been around."
He added: "Field Day a place to see your favourite artists and discover new and exciting bands. It's somewhere for music fans to fun around and see as much great music as they can."
10 No More Red: Arsenal and Islington campaign against knife crime
The festival has grown out of small beginnings, from an event staged in a Shoreditch car park, into a relative monster that accommodates 30,000.
"It started as a free event in the car park of the Griffin pub," Tom said. "There was a great atmosphere and a real mixture of different artists.
"I thought why don't we do this on a bigger scale, so we started approaching parks and Victoria Park was available. That's how it came about, and we grew it from there.
"It's gone from 5,000 to 30,000 people, but we don't want to go beyond that. It's big enough – we just want to make it the best event it can be."
Other acts gracing the various tents and stages will include Errors, Fennesz, Modeselektor, Afrocubism, Hudson Mohawke and many more. There will also be the return of Field Day's trademark Village Green, hosting "classic" fete games such as Blindfold Sweetcorn Husking Championship, Scone Throwing, Vegetable Discus and Human Wheelbarrow.

I go out to my garden now and it's still warm, like summer. But the leaves on big maple trees in the back are starting to turn and I can see the vague copper tips. It's that transition season when you want to grab the last of summer but your head understands that autumn is coming.
I've picked dozens of luscious tomatoes in the last few weeks, but there are still some green ones hanging on the vines. Do I wait for them to ripen and have the last few precious bites?
What if there's a sudden frost! That happened to me last year and all my tomatoes were ruined.
Here's what to do: use some green tomatoes and leave just a few to ripen and hope for the best.
In the past I've baked green tomato pie, fried green tomato slices, baked green tomato slices, made green tomato pickles and cut green tomatoes into different kinds of chutney.
This year I decided to pack them into a sandwich.
Preheat the oven broiler or outdoor grill with the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. Remove the stem and seeds from the bell peppers and cut them into quarters. Brush the pepper pieces with the olive oil. Broil the pepper pieces, turning them occasionally, for 8–10 minutes or until charred. Remove the pieces to a plate. When cool, peel off the skin.
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Mix the flour with some salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Place the beaten eggs in another dish. Place the breadcrumbs in a third dish. Coat the tomato slices with flour. Shake off the excess. Dip the coated slices in the beaten eggs, covering the slices completely. Coat the slices with the breadcrumbs. Place the tomato slices on a cookie sheet or baking rack to air dry for at least 15 minutes. Heat about 1/4-inch vegetable oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Fry the tomatoes for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Place the rolls in the oven to warm them up for about 4-5 minutes. Remove the rolls from the oven. While the rolls are warming, mix the mayonnaise and basil together. Spread equal amounts of the mayonnaise on the bottoms of each of the rolls. Top each with 3-4 tomato slices. Top each with two roasted pepper quarters. Top each with equal amounts of the cheese. Finally, cover with the top of the roll. Place back in the oven for a minute or so to slightly melt the cheese and serve.

Who in Philadelphia, PA area is an appropriate candidate for Invisalign Orthodontics?
Invisalign orthodontics is a revolutionary system for realigning the teeth in a way that does not require metal brackets and wires. Patients who want to straighten their smile can do so in a way that is both effective and discreet. Invisalign orthodontics uses custom-made clear aligner trays. These trays fit over the dental arch, and are to be worn at all times to reposition the teeth gently.
Both teenagers and adults prefer Invisalign over traditional orthodontic methods for many reasons. First, they are much more discreet. Patients with high-profile careers or those who are embarrassed at the thought of having metal covering their smile for months may prefer to use Invisalign over conventional methods. Second, Invisalign is comfortable to wear. Third, the trays are easy to use and clean. Fourth, Invisalign is comparable in cost to traditional braces. Many patients choose them for the benefits they provide, and prefer them over conventional methods of aligning the smile. Mild to moderate misalignment can be adjusted with Invisalign, as well as correcting the bite.
However, patients must be appropriate candidates for Invisalign. Dr. Spilkia can perform a thorough evaluation to determine if this method of straightening the smile is the best orthodontic option. Although Invisalign can realign dental arches and the bite, it cannot be used in situations when misalignment is severe and may require extractions. Patients such as these may be better served by visiting a traditional orthodontist. This can be determined during the initial visit with Dr. Spilkia and his team of dental experts.
If you are interested in learning more about Invisalign and are considering treatment at David Spilkia Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, contact our practice today to schedule a consultation visit and examination to determine if you are a candidate for treatment. We gladly welcome new patients to our practice for an evaluation and are excited to meet you!

Minecraft: An impressive Harry Potter mod in preparation – News
With 112 million active players per month, Minecraft has one of the largest communities in the history of video games. If most of them are content to have fun with the tools offered by the software, some use its power to carry out ambitious projects. This is the case of a certain Minecraft School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
As the name suggests, this is a mod inspired by the famous Harry Potter franchise. The team in charge of the project has thus recreated a large part of the universe imagined by J. K. Rowling and the least that can be said is that the result is impressive. Whether Hogwarts or Diagon Alley, the emblematic places of the saga are carefully reproduced, while many famous creatures are in the game. Note that it will also be possible to have fun on a Quidditch pitch or to use your magic wand to cast spells. In short, an extremely attractive map that the developers plan to publish for free by the end of the month. In the meantime, know that it is possible to support the project via Patreon and get access to the test version of the card.

2019 has arrived. I haven't decided my overall opinion of this madness, other than the fact I'm feeling old. Life choices will do that to you.
Quite a lot went down in 2018 that left me feeling a little…uncertain, scattered, frantic, and defeated, so 2019 doesn't have to change much to beat it. I hope everyone else had a good 2018, but if yours was also a bit much, may the new year bring something much more positive around overall.
I'm still in the process of trying to find a new career path. This is, in my case, terrifying as I'm not the world's best at change and I've been in my previous career for fifteen years professionally and twenty-two years if we include volunteering.
What career path was I in? I was an equestrian, and I tested the waters in several different areas of the industry.
I do/did love working with horses. I do/did love working at the physical level required, but it does take its toll and my last job was such a catastrophe that I ended up needing to step back. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing next though so I may end up back in the industry simply because most places I've reached out to for employment, can envision equine experience transferring to their profession. What they don't get is I have worked for months at a time without a day off, worked the full twenty-four hour day for up to 72 hours, worked pretty much every holiday, and been around situations that went from bad to worse to heartbreaking. I had a lot of fun and great times as well, but the horse industry is definitely a hard-working one.
Anyway…something should eventually pop up. If not, like a friend and former employer has said, I have the experience and the background to slip right back into horses with absolutely no problem.
But! For 2019, I have some goals.
To find a new editor. I reached out to a potential one in December, but after crickets for over two weeks…I'm going with I need to find someone else.
Try to get some more eyes (reviews) on When the Kingdom Falls and The Price of Survival. I've done several giveaways, but so few people seem interested in giving reviews that despite the fact the books are getting ratings on Goodreads, neither Goodreads nor Amazon has a lot of reviews.
Try to figure out Twitter more – I legit struggle with Twitter. Hashtagging has never been my thing to begin with and Twitter is positively mystifying. I know it's supposed to be a "thing" of my generation, but that part of it seems to be almost beyond me.
This one is up in the air, but perhaps write a few more short stories based in Z's universe and actually post them on the blog for readers. With my preference for having an editor try to minimize spelling/grammatical errors, this may not happen, but it is a thought.
How about everyone else? Any resolutions?
I'm also toying with the idea of a once-a-month get-to-know-a-side-character blog post where readers could either ask questions to a specific side character or I could type up a set of questions/answers ahead of time and post them. Any interest to either scenario?
Next Post Kingdom lines and backstories tied to music.
Good luck with all of your goals (especially the job searching one; that is never easy!). If you're looking at freelance editors, I can't recommend Sione Aeschliman or Jeni Chapelle high enough. They are both gems to work with, very positive and prompt, and I don't think you could go wrong with either of them!
Fingers are definitely crossed! Job searching is the worst. Yay, I hope you're able to work with one of them! They are seriously fantastic. Regardless, good luck on your editor search, as well!
