Friday the friend who I occasionally drive dump truck for told me that this AM he wanted me to haul from a certain quarry, but to plan to get there after 7:15, because they are union there and they drag their feet. Over the weekend I thought about it some, especially how does that company compete with non union quarries. This AM I found out how. There are no company trucks there now. Twenty years ago they probably had fifty. They no longer drill blast or crush, they contract it out, and the contractor comes in for a few weeks every other month or so. It appears that the only union employees now are the two loader operators and maybe the scale guy.
