the company is selling dolly to dist & drop ship to stores and in march we will be selling of routes the dist rates is 19% on cake bread is 15% the routes will sell for about 75,000. and only a 10% stale crdit and you will pay for repairs,fuel,rest of 35% stale

this company who is in financial turmoil. always spends their money on the stupidest things. 1.cages for the thrift store merchandise.(they can take our stuff that we sell at full cost, but we better not take their stuff that they sell at discount,cause u know we make more money selling something at the thriftstore than in a grocery store or a restaurent. 2.$3.49 bread (bakers inn) enough said 3. money wasted on stupid displays or end caps(instead of getting more space on aisle or running really good promotions.) 4.closing bakeries,laying people off,cutting routes,pulling out of stores and even whole mkts.(while adding more thrift stores, i heard that they r looking to put anotherone in my area.) 5.not enough people to do business properly. (we have a hard enough time just bein able to fill all the routes that r left, let alone having people to pull or like the competitors having mgrs. or sales people going to see stores and mgrs.

i really started to get worried when we didnt get our checks. and the thriftstore supervisors told the thriftstore personal they could get their money out of the cash register. the last time i heard somethin like that the company my wife was working for folded?????????

the problem is the fact that our paperwork goes to and from the rocky mt. bakery, and our product comes from knoxville. if that isnt confusing enough. 4 times since thanksgiving, they have sent our checks 1-2 days late. and we are always getting shorted on product.(supposedly cause we are the last depot and if all the bread cant fit on the transport we get shafted.)well this past friday we didnt get our checks, and no one could tell us why. then when they didnt come saturday? we finally were told sat. afternoon that they sent them ups and since it was a holiday weekend we wouldnt get our checks till tuesday.

since they closed the charlotte bakery weve had nothing but problems getting our paychecks,and our products.

is anyone else having problems gettin their paychecks on time.

Tony Alvarez's new years resolutions for 2007: 1. New bankruptcy deadline extension 2. Only lose $100 million 3. Get rich while doing it!

This just in: Alvarez doesn't give a shit about ibc he's in it for the $$$ sorry santa

have you guys seen any changes in distribution in your neck of the woods? Here in the NW we only have hostess. only in metro areas (our competion delivers hostess in rural areas) no bread at all. now i am starting to see Dolly Madison in some of our stores. It is being drop shipped frozen direct to stores, no rsr. store clerks work it to shelf. we are supposed to get 1% comission from they're drop ship business.(yipeee) the problem is hostess is right next to dolly and dolly is cheaper. we are competing with ourselves! Does this make any sense. I think this is the beginning of the end for rsr maybe whole company. have you seen this anywhere else?

hey George W. Bush, how much $ you making in your new job? Not even close to what you making with IBC how about benifits, retirement? Yes IBC sucks but those of us who still have a job are doing O.K. financially. Good luck at Boeing? you are going to need it. If you stick around five years you might be making what you made last year.

Does it make any sence to have a Blackberry phone and a company cell phone and maybe a personal cell phone? Instead of making bread it looks like our Kansas City boys came from a techie convention. They have Blackberry's vibrating, Cell phones ringing all at the same time. All we can hope for is for a Bolt of Lightening to find them and light them up one by one, then we will start making money?

Tony to the troops: " We wish you a merry Christmas and an Unhappy New Year.

All food industry people are working that night and what about the people who, work that nigt so that, whom ever wants to have a good time. The whole world does not shut down every holiday .

I worked at the Lakewood bakery from opening to the closing last year. Life is so much better not working for IBC. For Christmas I got 4 days off and this weekend I got 3 days off. I work a normal day shift making air plane parts. Managers at my new job treat us all with respect. For all of you now working for IBC please know life is better without IBC. I am off to spend my bonus.............

ULU mania in AK

hello Kansas??? three more days to the closing of the thriftstores right?

I WANT THE REST OF MY BONUS PLEASE.MY UNION CONTRACT GUARANTEED ME $150.OO,I ONLY GOT $103.53.I WANT THE REST OF MY FUCKING MONEY,OR SOMEBODY'S GETTING STABBED.

Re: Ricks on the move. This is how IBC promotes individuals who know nothing about the bread business, promote them upward and onward to get them the hell away from where there at.

Who going to take Larry Lumely job. Is rick starting to make his move to big and better things. Word has it he is on the move.

Re: Cramer, for your information. It's a joy trying to figure out the spelling on his email's

Its sad to see the only way Biddeford makes any money to have explosions and collect off the insurance.

How many other bakeries are working New years eve? Party is at the plant BYOB.

Cramer, for your information all the professionals are not in the production areas because we are doing paperwork that needs to be done today and answering emails. If you would look around you would see we are hiring people into bakery management positions that know nothing about bakery operations or how to bake a loaf of bread. The new measure on how well you are doing your job is to see how many email you can answer, forward or send out. By this measure you are doing a fine job.

Is there a reason they no longer post the salary ranges on any new job posting? Or have they pissed off enough of the incumbent Managers that they don't want them to know you are paying a subordinate more money then you are making?

Santa you SUCK!!!! I told you we wanted a new chief eng hope you choked on the cookie we left you fat ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Testing...........

this site has been down for days............what was that all about? just a thought.

We can only wish that the BK Judge gave Alvarez and his boys a tongue lashing about how IBC has not improved each months and how they keep burning through cash like it was a flour loss. Why haven't you Mr. Alvarez had any or few improvements after closing bakeries and reducing routes and laying worker off? You have reduced the pay of most employees yet you continue to creat jobs with absurd salaries and flying people back and fourth to hold meeting that are a waste of time most of the time? You quit contributing to your managements 401-k plan yet we are still losing money. Mr. Alvarez would you hire someone to work for your Bankruptcy Turn Around Company? That have no idea about BK laws and procedures or had the College degree that may be required? I think not. So why do you let the people that you think you can trust hire people into IBC that know absolutely nothing about our business or how to bake a loaf of bread or run a route or repair and service our equipment? Mr. Alvarez you seemed like the right person to guide us through this BK maze when you were asked to help us, but now its like we got the Forrest Gump of turn around specialist.

IBC dodged another bullet with BK Judge? Yarick and Ellsessor took the fall when they figured out they were in trouble with under reporting Worker Comp. Too bad BK Judge only gets part of the facts. Yarick and Ellsessor knew that when they resigned it would save IBC from millions in fines and investigation from the SEC. All IBC got was a slap on the wrist and Yarick a $50000. dollar fine (pocket change) for Yarick who had already filled is pockets, the fine should have been in the millions but as you can see they had a plan and the plan worked.

Hey, Rocky Mount Insider, Whats up with all the big boys in town, Who is the new Production Mgr Did they give it to Mike P. he is the only one that can do the job RIGHT I hope they did not give it to Larry or the little guy Tim. Both will be trouble.

Another quite email day. Everyone in the office hiding under their desk and not making any noise because BK Judge making a lot of decisions today.

The only IBC that gets a bonus is sales and mgmt. So don't go saying it's the little guy crying foul about not getting a bonus this year. The problen is a bonus should have been on profit merit. The sales actually collected not the sales made because there is the customer who will not pay for months on end. If a bonus or raise was based for the salary and sales on profit per plant location and not just because IBC gives them out maybe there would be better mgmt.

re: Taco Bell Employee= Akers...... I heard he used to make a killer encharito.......

Why do most of you keep posting 99.9% bullshit.The only one that makes any sense at all is annon from K.C. Some of you complete absolute stupidity. I HAVE A SECRET-

Former IBC exec penalized for understating worker's comp reserves The ex-CFO is accused of deliberately understating reserves. By DAN MARGOLIES The Kansas City Star Interstate Bakeries Corp. ?s former chief financial officer deliberately understated the company?s workers? compensation reserves by at least $30 million, federal regulators charged in a complaint filed Wednesday. Paul E. Yarick ?disregarded the estimates of IBC?s future workers? compensation liabilities provided by its insurance consultant,? the Securities and Exchange Commission alleged in the complaint filed in federal court in Kansas City. Instead, Yarick used ?obsolete? and ?unreliable? information, as a result of which IBC overstated its pretax income in the second and third fiscal quarters of 2004, the complaint stated. Yarick, 67, has consented to the entry of a permanent injunction barring him from serving as an officer or director of any public company for the next five years. He has also agreed to pay a civil penalty of $50,000.

If the plan is to come out of BK next May / June, you would think we have to start making some money or the losses should be smaller then they have been. You cannot keep losing millions every month, sales are up and we lose more money? Can someone explain it to this pea brain?

Hopefully we get a new Board to do the cuts that should be done. We have added more NEW jobs in the last two years then this company had before BK. Its time somebody has the balls to cut these positions that cronnies have filled with people that don't have a clue.

Nobody will strike after Christmas. You all talk about every holiday but you never follow thru. So cut the shit and get back to work.

I don't want a stinking Christmas part, All I want for Christmas is some $2.00 stocks, But if they stop trading I won't even get that.

we all will strike after christmas

we need to strike all of us wayne DRAKES JAMAICA NY BEDFORD MA JUST LIKE BEFORE WHEN WE SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING THE TEAMSTER all truck drivers listen lets send big christmas gift a big strike strike we are strong btc local strike that the anwser strike strike the stockholder have a lawsuit on ibc we will strike the trucks will not move the product will not move THE BIG BOYS DONT KNOW HOW TO BRAKE SO WE WILL WIN WE WILL WIN STRIKE NOW

That's the problem with you sorry pieces of work. You think IBC owes you something more than a paycheck. A party, a bonus, holidays off. Bullshit! Be thankfull you have a job with benefits at all. There are a lot of people out there who make $10 an hour with no damn health benefits. You are a bunch of self rightious, selfish people who just can't leave well enough alone. Oh, anyone know of some good hispanic help out there??

knoxville, you dont get it, we are at apoint where they cant give it away

I agree with Davenport. There should be a mechanic on duty on Saturdays. And they shoiuld have a direct phone number to their department. The phone system on Saturday is a joke. my supervisor cant help me because he is always on a route. So I guess the next time I break down, I am just going to call my wife and have her come pick me up. My next phone call will be to the depot telling the thrift store girl where my truck is and let me know when its fixed.

Now that the union part has been brought up I will say this. Unions are usually put in place by workers who are mistreated at work. I would say that with the low amount of union workers in Flowers that it's probably a decent place to work. When I have worked union in the past I always knew going in that the company was pretty shitty towards their employees.....no matter what they say at interview time.

To the route truck driver bawling about not getting a Christmas party why don't get get yourself a bottle of Jack Daniels and go fuck yourself?

Heres the bottom line IBC. You have too many products, they are of mediocre to poor quality and it is over priced. jamming it on the market makes it even worse by selling old product and killing repeat sales. You are trying to save your way to a profit which can not happen even if you had good product. Give it up, it's not even funny anymore. J.C.

NO Xmas for the boys and girls again. Too bad you have to work and leave your familys at home to party without you. Its tough to be a low lifer. Mabey some day you will have a real job and be normal like your big boss.

we here in knoxville tn will be selling routes to indp. o/o in feb07 does anyone know if routes are being sold

Merry Christmas Chris!

ANYBODY ELSE GET THEIR CLASS ACTION CHECK? I GOT MY FIRST ONE...THERE IS TO BE THREE. $587

Flowers is a pretty wise company that has their act together so I couldn't see them even wanting to take on any of IBC's mismanaged antiquated bakeries. I do see them spreading farther out in the future though. They are a corporation that is like every other out there. If they see the possibility to make a good chunk somewhere they will. They won't need to build more bakeries just yet. They will just have to hire a truck driver or two and rent some warehouse space. I guess you might have misunderstood what I meant by a superstar. I was referring to them being a more extended company with a product that will take over the household name that Wonder currently holds.

fed up,relax buddy it's jusy a job as long as we get our ck thats all that matter.s.do we really need a christmas party?as for putting items on sale it will only beat the competion which we r not.just wait to we go to the ordering system like stro"s is doing it will be a mess.i always said the day i let a computer tell me what to pit in a store is the day i quit.

S-T-B-Ex-IBC-S - I wouldn't call them a superstar yet but for sure a rising star with tons of potential. Them being union or not is not the consumers concern. The fact that they can put out quality material and keep up with the changing needs of the customer within a reasonable time frame is making them what they are. If IBC had the sense to put out something decent and not 2 years after the customer demand falls off they wouldn't have to worry nearly as much as they do now.

this getting good about i.b.c, flowers and bimbo. if anyone else out there knows anything worth posting , please, do so. the west coast can refrain. thank you...

With the impact they have now I couldn't see them doing more than purchasing a couple of labels that IBC would try to bastardize ( <---not sure if that's a word). IBC is just waiting to be blown the rest of the way out of the water. Flowers is going to be the next superstar IMO. Sara Lee is as big or bigger than they need to be due to cash restrictions.

Here's what happening next week in the nation's courts: Tuesday December,18 In Kansas City, Interstate Bakeries will ask Bankruptcy Judge Jerry W. Venters to intervene in its dispute with hedge fund Brencourt Advisors LLC over the makeup of the company's board of directors. Interstate wants an injunction to block a lawsuit filed by Brencourt, the company's largest shareholder, to force the maker of Hostess Twinkies and Wonder Bread to hold an annual meeting to choose a new board. The hedge fund wants a meeting so it can try to oust Interstate's current board, which it blames for the company's stalled reorganization under Chapter 11. Interstate says Brencourt shouldn't be allowed to seize control of its bankruptcy because shareholders are likely to be out of the money after the commercial baker pays off creditors. But Brencourt believes there is value for shareholders if the company gets new management. According to Interstate, its bank lenders have threatened to pull the plug on financing Interstate's Chapter 11 case if Brencourt gains control of the board.

It official, Larry Lumley will be leaving. Henderson bakery will be in deep shit now that Larry won't be coming by anymore. Glendale and Millbrook bakeries will be in same boat. Just be a matter of time before Wonder Bread rules again.

Creditors and shareholders of Interstate Bakeries Corp. have agreed in principle to replace the company's existing board of directors with "new blood" to lead the maker of Hostess Twinkies out of bankruptcy. Finally somebody has listened. This is what we have been taking about since this BK started. Someone needs to carry this one step further and get rid of these dumb bastards that know nothing about Baking a loaf of Bread. I say lets start with Rick and Tim? This tag team needs to go. Does Tim even have a brain? It seems all he does is repeat bullshit that Rick says like a damn parrot. Anyway new board has my vote.

TO TONY ALVEREZ,I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE THE HELL DID YOU LEARN HOW TO RUN A COMPANY, JUST WHEN I THOUGHT YOU COULD NOT GET ANYMORE DUMB THAN YOU REALLY ARE . I FIND OUT TODAY THAT GIANT BREAD AND HOMEPRIDE WHEAT IS GOING ON SALE STARTING DECEMBER 30TH, SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THOSE PENCIL PUSHING MORONS THAT NEW YEARS IS THE BEST SELLING WEEK WITHOUT SALES, IGUESS LOSEING 10,000,000 A MONTH ISNT GOOD ENOUGH, P.S I CANT STAND WORKING FOR ASS HOLES. SARA LEE SAVE OUR LIFE BUY US, IM SURE YOU CAN TURN US AROUND PLEASE?

THE CHECKS ARE HERE GOT MINE THIS MORNING

Who says that Rick is doing a good job in Henderson? I heard he is doing the same great job that he did at Sara Lee in Oakland (and that's why he isn't there anymore.) What happened to Lumley - was it just because Eller is gone or did somehting else happen?

To S-T-B-Ex-IBC-S: so, outside of bread and snacks what other aspects of the baking industry is bimbo involved in here in the U.S. and do you think that they are ready to move into some of the major markets where they don't already have a presence, and how about being widely accepted?

who said that larry lumley is leaveing what a great person he is. it would be a big loss if he is gone. why is rick a reject. what a good job he has done.

Thanks for the pay cut IBC. I thought base pay cut was taking effect in jan not this pay check.

Find one plant that is making a profit. Take ALL their department heads and district sales managers make them a training team and send them out to one plant that is struggling. Have the training team stay there for three months. Yes sometimes even after you become management there is room to learn. Give "loss" plant another 3 months to turn around.

also to show there appreciation,there are no more xmas partys,they cant afford it, BULL SHIT. THEY TREAT US LIKE SLAVES,PS STOP SELLING FRESH BREAD IN THE THRIFT STORES AND MAYBE WE COULD AFFORD IT ASS HOLES

Are there any I.B.C. route salesmen out there that understand what i said, they dont appreciate any thing that we do, to those assholes upstaires we are all thieves. when actually they are running I.B.C.to the ground, please some one buy interstate i need my job thank yoy signed frustrated

Not sure of the right way to approach this issue. But some thing needs to be said why is it allowed for people to put such vulger entries on this site?Is this site monitered at all?

To Razz and S-T-B-Ex-IBC-S: well then we guess that leaves just flowers in the running for the no. 1 spot, eh? i.b.c. will certainly never be there again. too bad. one of the oldest consumer brands (wonder bread) in the country, known worldwide, soon to be eliminated from the american lexicon...

The most efficient thing they have is the Stroehmann\'s operation they just recently bought in Pennsylvania and the panhandle of NY.... and just built a new Stroehmanns in Elkhart, Indiana. The rest of their old Entemanns, Arnold and Oroweat plants are absolute SHITHOLES and most are even worse antiques than IBC\'s worst plants.....So.. if they have the $$... they sure arent spending it on their bakeries... EXACTLY WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. SOUNDS LIKE I.B.C/ CBC ALL OVER AGAIN........

i am an employee here in this company for many years i have over 30 years experiance in this company. i here that i b c is still losing millions of dollars last month, when the hell are you morons going to learn how to run this company, i know what some of the problems are hopefully you will listen to a route driver who knows and cares about his job to try and help you,#1 STOP SELLING FRESH PRODUCT IN THE THRIFT STORES EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO LEAVE IT SIT IN THE BACK ROOM AFEW DAYS DO IT. IF YOU CAN GET A FRESH LOAF OF BREAD FOR HALF THE PRICE, THEN THE DELIS DONT NEED US#2 SUPERVISORS COME IN LATE GO HOME EARLY THEY DONT DO THERE JOB#3 INDEPENDANT MARKETS GO ON SALE BUT SOME STORES DONT PUT IT ON SALE WE LOSE MONEY example- ihave a store that does $1200.00 a week selling a lot of stone ground, it goes on sale for 2for $4.00 i sold him plenty of extra bread for the sale. I DID $9OO.00 THAT WEEK. my point is the only one who did good was the consumer and i worked twice as hard and lost money. we can not adjust prices any more. if a store sells an item great why put it on sale especially if it is not in there circuller. my point is someone should listen and learn what is going on please someone outhere get t. alverez to see this and respond in a way that maybe we can get this company back where it belongs #1 THANKYOU

If all route guys work on sat.Why in the hell don't HR in davenport have to work on sat?If u have a problem it has to wait tell mon this is bullshit same goes for the mechanic.Yes KG is very forgetful.

Razzz......Now youre catchin on! Thx, and Merry Fukin Christmas to ya!

To S-T-B-Ex-IBC-S: we are assuming you watched the same episode. thanks for the input. was it just T.V. or was that a nice, clean well organized plant? it seems to us that it was. either way, flowers is making things happen in their areas of operation. but, we guess that with the schmucks i.b.c. has running things both at the corporate and local levels, it is just a matter of time...

cincinnati needs a new plant manager do you need a job just show up once a month and pick on transport drivers

Too late too strike now folks IBC worked it out with BCTGM. Now they have your Benefits, we're raising your dues, you're all going under and for the next 5 yrs, you got no voting rights or contract representation . Thanks for all your concessions your sellout BCTGM reps.

To AnoAss that is to skeered even post what bakery he is from.The website for REO SPEEDWAGON is ............ http://www.myspace.com/reospeedwagon ....You aslo have to sign in .Enjoy the music loser......Moron....Oh I am sorry, it is the hoiday season .....Ho, Ho, Ho...

To S-T-B-EX-IBC, I agree with your assessment. I do not hunt anymore , but it is easy pickings on this site. I do not know it all , or pretend to be a "Swammy". I did not realize , that you did not work here ever. I worked for IBC for 10 plus years. I started as a helper, and within a year got a route , then became a field mgr. , and then an ASM . I enjoyed my years there , and learned alot, that I carried on to my next job. You have been on this site for awile now, and have common sense. I would agree with you on almost all of your statements. I definitely agree with your statements about Flower's. They appear to be rising to the top( yesthere is a pun intended). I saw there route personnel , and also there mgt. is very knowledgeable. Probably the way IBC used to be run. I could care less if this company makes it or not . I just have been saying alot of the same things and these idiots do not want to wake up and smell the "Raspberry writing on the wall." Regardless of the outcome in the future, it will never be the same and these employees need to realize this. I am not trying to be ugly , but they have to face the truth , sooner or later. If not , then they will be in the unemployment line "Wondering", why they did not leave sooner.

Go back read your posts you dumb fuck we know who you are.You don't have to be a basketball player to wear knee pads.hear piggy,piggy,piggy,soooeeeeeeeee

we have been watching the back and forth on this site about flowers and bimbo vs. ibc. there is a program on the history channel called "modern marvels". this particular episode was dedicated to the baking industry. flowers foods was given the vast majority of the exposure time on the program. wonder's exposure was limited to maybe, and we mean maybe, 5 minutes, and it ended with a that fatass dan angst babbling about who-knows-what. on the other hand, flowers foods look like they have their shit together when it comes to production, sanitation and logistics. so, that having been said we think that ultimately it will be flowers who will one day be known as the world's largest baker. bimbo may be in the mix, but we think they don't have what it takes right now to be significant nationwide, although you never know. weston, well they've been here and always will be. and by the way, weston has boatloads of money. they just choose not to spend it on a dumpster like ibc...

To AnonaAss: It is www.myspace.com/reospeedwagon you freaking moron. You need to learn how to use a computer . You do not deserve to see the site. You have to sign in first beyotch.

WOW Mr Murphy is a rocket scientist Somebody finally figured out that this plant and that other shithole in Pomona are screwed You can sell both junk piles to home depot for extra parking, funny how they are our nieghbor's at both sites??????????

Its nice too see D and W have the same problems as Tulsa

Waterloo you are right !! Personell dont do shit here either . Unless you need to go shopping every afternoon for 3 to 4 hours.The only thing they do here is piss drivers and shippers off and create problems.We also cannot figure out why there are three?KG is worthless she needs to GO.

We in Waterloo can se why this cow shit company is broke 3 useless personell people in Davenport no bakery what the f--k do they do? nothing for Waterloo there safety director just quit and we have heard they brought some other dumb b-tch in who took sevrence pay to do the job - nice f-cking vacation! My advice hire a legal consultant get rid of all 4 of these incompetent people and save about $190000 a year. Is there anyone on top with some BRAINS??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

REO,REO,REO,REO,REO,REO,REO,SPEEEEEED Wagonnnnnnnnnnnn.Check them out at Myspace.com/reospeedwagon. Listen with an open mind , and think of that someone special during the holiday's.............I believe in Santa Claus.

IBC song of the day: " I believe anything is possible. I believe in miracles. And the angels keeping watch, innocence that is never lost, I believe in Santa Claus. Keep singing this over and over people . Check out MySpace.com/Reospeedwagon 90,000 plays in two weeks. That's not bad for a band that has not put out a studio album/cd in quite some time. It has a little new ,a little old sound to it. It reminds me of Hi infidelity meets the Tuna album/cd.It beats bitching about a very lost cause. Drown yourself in beer or music , take your own poison.....I believe REO's time has finally come again. Check out MySpace.com/Reospeedwagon.........

strike the east and the west hit then hard take back what they are taking from you have lawsuits and go out on work comp and hit kansas city hard strike gave then a nice strike before christmas

With the numerous Bakeries in California the oportunities for jumping ship is more easily done. I know of three more upper managers who are currently negotiating and may be jumping ship by early next year. The new IBC attitude is they can replace you with anyone, even if they don't know the job. And they are paying these idiots more then the current managers in the current positions. We have and are going to lose many years of experience before this is over.

To "the fat fired beyotch from Ohio"'truer word's have never been spoken. I have preached this for the past two years on this site. These freaking moron's actually think that there is a saviour out there. You are correct in your assumption, that as far as the rank and file go , they are in essence screwed. You sound like , you know the bread industry very well. Maybe , they will listen to you. Whatever is left of the company will be bits and pieces. Sara Lee is not in the picture , unless you are talking about regions. Flower's has money to burn , and Bimbo, well we will just say that they have cheap labor , and the demograhics are on their side. The truth has finally come out , and it was from someone other than me.Wake up and smell the "Raspberry Twinkie".......

we have to go on strike also work comp and big lawsuits send a message a christmas gift a big strike like we did > we shut down hostess drakes wonder butternut millbrook merita and the truck drivers won and were out one week and local 50 workers will will strike agian they are trying to take two years with no contract and health benefits and take 88 cents we will not take a pay cut we wil go on strike the truck driver will go with us the teamster and shut then down it will send a message to the little boys in ibc they can not win as long as we all stand together strong and tough ibc boys they will feel the heat . the truck driver will honor our strike . because we honor the teamster strike no more snowballs or drakes pies or hostess cup cakes or coffee cake or hostess cookies or drakes cookies or yankee cup cakes or sunnys cup cakes or swiss roll the little boys dont know how to bake or wrapping or packing or shipping or trucks or fork lift the hard worker will not be there or the hard working truck drivers IBc will save gas when no truck go out i say all you local union worker turn down your contract all they do is take back what you worked so hard to get we are not going back in time strike strike strike strike {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{strike let the world know that ibc is out of business for good they are trying to hurt you strike

No rumor - Gene Murphy has confirmed it. The west coast has turned out to be more problematic than anyone anticipated. We are losing all of our most experienced people to the competition.

Rumor control has it that Lumpy threw in the towel? "Deal or No Deal"

Debating whether to stick around or go You must be a complete moron to have to give that a second thought Just leave the dept will buy you some nice spike heels nut on

Ms. Gladis is the voice of consumer's nation wide! when someone feels they have wasted their money on a product you will lose them for good! How many more Ms. Gladis's do we need to piss off with poor quality? we are done unless WE get a handle on the crap........

Leave already! No big loss, what's one less Millbrook asshole. Pussy!

Debating whether to stick around or go ahead and leave? Weighing the pros and cons. Do you have any suggestions to help me decide?

A KING IS A KING IS A KING IS IN ALWAYS.....EXPECT IF SOMEONE OVER THROWS THE CASTLE, BUT KNOW ONE CAN......I AM THE UNCROWN PRINCE OF KINGDOM OF BREAD.....KING YEAST

-T-B-ex-IBC-S Date: 2006-12-14 Date: Company Comment: Name: Robb Date: 2006-12-14 Location: Location:Columbus, OH Comment: HEY DUMBASS BIG BEAR WAS A SMALL REGIONAL GROCERY STORE CHAIN IN OHIO IT HAD A SMALL BAKERY IN COLUMBUS,OHIO PENN-TRAFFIC THAT IS OWNED BY LAWYERS LIQUIDATED EVERYTHING LONG BEFORE THEY WENT BELLY UP. MOST OF THE BIDDERS FOR IBC WILL BE OUT OF THE BREAD INDUSTRY AND WILL NEED THE INFRASTUCTURE OF IBC,SARALEE HAS NO FUCKING MONEY READ THERE CHARTS,FLOWERS NOT EVEN IN THE RUNNING--LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER TO THE WEST COAST THE BUYER LIRKS THERE,HEINERS ANOTHER SMALL REGIONAL PLAYER UNTIL BARNEY STARTED RUNNING THE DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS FOR EARL HEINERS NOW THEY BELONG TO SARA LEE(EARL DIED THE HEIRS SOLD IT)---------- hey BIGGER dumbass....Just as I said.. the Big Bear bakery was in OH... the BAKERY was bought by Flowers and SHUT DOWN... can u refute that ??? NO!... Heiners sold their HUNTINGTON WV plant to Sara Lee.. not Parkersburg----- As for Flowers.. YOU have the head in the ass there Sparky, as they are SWIMMING in cash after divesting Keebler and retiring their debt. Until a few years ago, Flowers HAD a plant in Fresno they got as part of an aquisition, and of couse it was a Union plant.. and YEP.. it got shut down. Flowers grows not by building NEW plants, but buying up capacity and SHUTTING DOWN OLD ones. If you even bother to read what I wrote, I said Bimbo would move the production to Mexico( or at minimum under Mexcian control). I agree, THEY WOULD be your player in the SW and West coast. They already bought Mrs. Bairds in TX and a Best Foods plant in Denver and already have a presence in the SW and California that they can absorb IBC into. If you ALSO bothered to read what I wrote, I said Sara Lee aint got the $$. George Weston SURELY doesnt have the $$$, so who does that leave for the heartland and the east coast.... you got it... FLOWERS, which can absorb FL into their existing 4 plants, GA into their existing 6 plants, NC into their existing 4 plants, VA into their 2 existing plants ( plus Bluefield WV), Louisiana into their existing 3 plants and TN into their existing 2 plants. Why in God\'s name would ANYONE not in the bread business buy a labor-bloated leviathon such as IBC??? That is foolishness in its extreme!!...... SO..... we are back where we started........ the only 2 REALISTIC saviours for an IBC buy-out are Bimbo and Flowers, and neither of those 2 are of the mind to keep open non-strategic exorbitant fixed-cost plants that IBC is LOADED with, which in ANY way you look at it, does NOT forbode a good omen to the average IBC rank-and-file worker.. THAT is unrefutable.......PS.. I was waiting for the snide \"fat cow and drunk bitch\" comments that were sure to flow from you.. thanks for having thought better of it...:o) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The lady with the complaint is more proof that IBC needs to tell walmart to go F*** thierselves, they claim it's our bread wheather it is or not because they know we make the best and they try to tell the custermers they are getting Wonder Bread instead of the cheap shit in the Great Value bag and even if we do make it, it's NOT the same bread most of the time.

Gladis Hulman, Which Wal Mart in Broken Arrow did you buy from? If it is on South Elm at the Creek Turnpike the Tulsa Wonder Bakery DOES NOT supply this bread, I check on this my self after a freind of mine complained about the same thing. I work at the Tulsa Wonder Bakery and I do care what we put out and the Moron's who don't care are jerks. If you bought it at the 71st street store I don't not know if we make for this store, but Flowers makes for the south store. If you think it is a lof of Wonder PLEASE call the bakery, talk to the Sales Manager Richard Samples or the Plant Manager Jim Hutton, or the Production Manager Doug Greer - they do care.

Drac is Back!I hope he got "lucky".Will this affair never end?

KING...............THAT'S THE WORD OF THE DAY. FUC KING, SUC KING, POT SMO KING, KIC KING YOUR ASS , LIC KING PUSSY, MA KING EVERYONE LOOK BAD, MA KING LOVE, MA KING ENEMIES, MA KING FUN OF PEOPLE, LI KING LIFE...........LATER

The company needs to get rid of VC and bring back R R or JC.

Who do we write to, to thank for giving us our 12% pay raise? Due to our Health and Welfare benefits increasing 12% and them not passing this increase onto us, How Nice of Them being that we have not gotten a raise I'm sure they figured out that if they did pass this increase onto us that a lot of us would surely leave. You know if we ever come out of this BK and they start to give out raises again we will be hit with this increase big time?

Does anybody have any experience with the Labor Board. Seems like we have a lot of instances of unfair labor practices with individuals getting paid a higher salary and having very little experience over the more senior manager in the same position? Seems like this would be a good case for the Labor Board to take on. Seems like either a Discrimination, Unfair Labor Pactice or Age Discrimination case.

Any guess as to what IBC would sell for? I think that Ralston bought the old CBC for 470 million. Don't know what IBC bought IBC for but wonder what is left would sell for.

Yes,Drac's gotten to be a perv lately,but where is he?

HEY DUMBASS BIG BEAR WAS A SMALL REGIONAL GROCERY STORE CHAIN IN OHIO IT HAD A SMALL BAKERY IN COLUMBUS,OHIO PENN-TRAFFIC THAT IS OWNED BY LAWYERS LIQUIDATED EVERYTHING LONG BEFORE THEY WENT BELLY UP. MOST OF THE BIDDERS FOR IBC WILL BE OUT OF THE BREAD INDUSTRY AND WILL NEED THE INFRASTUCTURE OF IBC,SARALEE HAS NO FUCKING MONEY READ THERE CHARTS,FLOWERS NOT EVEN IN THE RUNNING--LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER TO THE WEST COAST THE BUYER LIRKS THERE,HEINERS ANOTHER SMALL REGIONAL PLAYER UNTIL BARNEY STARTED RUNNING THE DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS FOR EARL HEINERS NOW THEY BELONG TO SARA LEE(EARL DIED THE HEIRS SOLD IT)

Why would anyone be afraid of Ruggles (Dracula), friken worm!

With Ruggles away the rats do play!

Way to go jimmy.They wont need the upper shitheads that got us in this mess.

The best thing that could happen for the hard working union employees would be chapter 7.Who ever buys us for pennies on the dollar is still going to need route guys, loaders ,bakers, transport drivers ,distro centers.Guess who they wont need?

What to do if you work in a hostile work environment BOB ROSNER - Thursday, May 11, 1999 Dear Working Wounded: I really like my job, but I can?t stand my boss. He?s always using vulgar language and making me the butt of his jokes during staff meetings. NOT ONE OF THE GUYS Dear NOT, Your boss reminds me of the guy who recently tried to steal gas from a mobile home. According to Darwin Awards.com, Seattle police found him curled up next to the vehicle in a puddle of raw sewage. Apparently, instead of putting his hose into the gas tank, he stuck it into the vehicle?s sewage container . . . . Well, it sounds like your boss can get a little slimy, too. But instead of fueling his career, he, too, may find himself flattened. Courts have ruled that the behavior you describe creates a "hostile work environment" and that workers need not tolerate it. The tips below should help you determine if, in fact, your worksite is "hostile." For more information, check out "Work Smarts For Women" by Patti Paniccia (Ballantine, 2000). Are you experiencing discrimination, intimidation, ridicule or insults? Think that sexual harassment means a coworker can?t keep his hands off you? Think again. According to the courts, harassment includes a wide range of words and actions that are merely sex-based. You don?t have to be propositioned to be harassed. If you encounter discrimination, intimidation, ridicule or insults, you should talk to your HR department, union, or a lawyer. What would a "reasonable woman" think? For years, the courts used the "reasonable man" standard to determine if a woman had been sexually harassed. (Well, they were run by a bunch of guys; what did you expect?) Fortunately, they?ve wised up. These days, if you think a "reasonable woman" would think you?re being harassed, you should take your case to HR, the union or a lawyer. (Sorry, the "reasonable man" standard still applies to male harassment victims.) What is the frequency and severity of the behaviour? A lot of little things can add up to a claim of sexual harassment-IF you can document them. So keep a diary with the date and description of each occurrence. Does the behavior "alter the conditions of employment"? Paniccia reports that you don?t need to have a nervous breakdown to prove you?ve been harmed. The courts will look at such things as: was the behaviour physically threatening? Did it humiliate you? Did it interfere with your ability to do your job? Did it affect your psychological well-being? What if the harasser is "just joking"? Bad news for any harassers out there: what?s funny to you isn?t funny to the courts. Your motives don?t matter. Keep it up, and eventually the joke will be on you.

we have to strike and teach ibc just like the teamster did they shut down ibc for a week and won and ibc gave the truck driver a contract in chapter 11 because IBC WAS scared the would have a bigger strike we have to strike jamaica then we will have the last say

Corp PurcH the stockholder have a lawsuit on ibc and will win and the local will go on strike and driver ibc is bankrupt

BEDFORD MA WATER LOOLA KANSAS CITY NORTH WOOD HENDESON CINCINNATA OHIO THE BCT HAS NOT HAD A CONTRACT FOR TWO YEARS SO KANSAS CITY YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO STRIKE ALL IBC WANT TO DO IS TO TAKE BENEFITS LOCAL 50 IS STRONG AND WILL GO ON STRIKE AND SEND A MESSAGE TO IBC FOR CHRISTMAS AND THE TRUCK DRIVER WILL GO OUT WITH US SO THERE KANSAS CITY WILL SHUT IT DOWN IN THE EAST SO WE ALL WILL SHOW YOU WE HAVE A GOOD LOCAL AND STRONG Strike for your rights

Laying off another shift here so jerk off can come up with a plan to fix the shit he has no clue about, like jerking off on picture's of HR feet on your camera phone you sick fuck

Zac has been very busy routing out complaints of harrassment and racial slurs at this plant. Somebody needs to tell this guy the guilty one is his chief engineer toe licker vendor sexual harrasser homophobe and general DICK

Can anybody tell me what our Plant Manager does? Our past Plant Managers use to come and help us out in the plant. Did anybody tell him where the plant is?

Its going on three years and this SAP accounting program is still not completed yet. This company will go completely broke before being SAP complete.

Henderson - who is left there to run the place? I heard that the ones who didn't leave yet are being run off by that Sara Lee reject Rick. What happened to Cothran? I thought he would have become Chief when Chris left. Is Tom Anderson still there doing nothing, or did they make him take over both sides like he should have? I can't believe that they have left Grovner and both the Wilsons in their jobs. I guess it is because they still have other plants to ruin before they are done.

STICK YOUR CONTRACT IN YOUR ASS . STRIKE!

Is Sara going to be my new step mom?

no no no just go out on work comp for stress. Hello you still get paid!!!!!

To church lady.Try an keep up with what people are getting at.Why would you start a million dollar program like soar if you are already having problems paying your bills.Why hire a outside company to fix your problems?Because the idiots running things have there heads up there butts.I heard they just spent 3 million dollars on a pull your head out of your butt machine hope it helps.lol.hahaha

Ah do believe I have the solution to all your problems ,you be a bunch of good boys and strike that bad company.Yessir you do that , then ah can buy all them empty bakeries at a very reasonable price,yaissir you do that.Of course y'all will have jobs with the new company,at shall we say a more reasonable cost to me.But ah do promise to give you benefits you truly want,I'll give you a twelve pack every day and a full case on friday,and don't forget those free passes to the local strip joints and I'll never ask you to pee in a cup. yaissir I'll take good care of you.

I say bring back Chuck Sullivan and Frank Coffey, their monthly losses were the same but they needed more bakeries to do it,so I guess they were less incompetant than these clowns.

Something must be up? Very light email traffic today, very quite. This usally means something is about to happen. Everyone needs to hold on to their panties.

quit crying i make all the money i need i love my transport job and now iam the new union steward i get to wear my union steward coat

They don't even match your 401k.u company guys already bent over an took it in the a--.so shut up.misterr perfect speller.

Not going to make it .Its ran by f---king idiot's an there's way to many of them.Rember soar in 2004 we went bankrupt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To the Union idiots who want to strike. First of all please learn to spell and use the English language properly. No wonder you are stuck in this job, to bad you never paid attention in grade/high school and could not get into college and get a degree so you could have a real job with real pay and benefits. Secondly, if you are dumb enough to walk out then you violate the contract and the Judge will have no choice to back up the Company and we will close your worthless facilities and move production to the more efficient plants around the PC?s. So please do have a wildcat strike, we in the Corporate Office will be laughing all the way to the Courts and enjoying the fact that we can eliminate the dead weight in this Company and not have to pay severance packages ro unemployment benefits. We will become a leaner meaner Company one way or another and IBC will survive. Once that part is completed we all will be buying Stock back in this Company, since it will all be re-issued since the old stock certificates will be declared worthless. Basically it will be like an initial offering for the stock and we all will be very rich when we are done.

u guys won't strike.I dare ya it would be very interesting to watch

strike now everyone send a message to this not good ibc wild cat strike wayne jamaica ohio cal strike dont let then take your money strike so they see we are strong and we the truck driver went on strike and now they dont mess with then and they got a contact in chapter 11 why because they were scared of the truck driver now have to all go on strike and hit then hard they just raise the price and they just want to take back from us because they dont think we are strong but we are strong if we stay together strike now you here strike brother now [[[[[[[[[[[[[[ strike

We ought to STRIKE NOW !! IBC is just keeping us around so they can sell bakeries and local brands to competitors. After they are all sold they won't keep us because of the pay and benefits we get. We will either get a big cut in pay in benefits or lose our jobs to others who will work for nothing. Even if we stay with the new company we will lose all seniority and vacations. STRIKE NOW BEFORE ITS TOO LATE !!!

well lets see 1.5 million teamsters 80,000 Bctm&g they know if you strike you are gone along with that little pension fund there will not be a strike even if you vote for it Local BCTGM Pres told all his people that you will get a raise with back pay Vester Newman promised must be true

The Teamsters are a joke - Hoffa is running the zoo. BC&TGM is stronger and Vople will not let us sink to the level of the Teamsters. Teamsters need to get some balls and stand for what they want not just whine like little girls. BC&TGM WILL PROVE THAT WE ARE STRONG IN NUMBERS AND IBC WILL SEE THE TRUE STRENGTH OF THE MEMBERS OF BC&TGM. STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE

Don't you Morons think IF the Judge would allow a STRIKE we would have had one already it will be like the teamsters everyone you know votes no but it Passes and With the Teamsters all signed BCTGM is powerless

By the way enjoy your time at work, me I will be on Vacation starting Monday for the next two weeks, spending time with the wife and kids and enjoying the incentives checks that I have received this year. Plus the extras received from our vendors are a nice touch at this time of the year. See you all in ( or at least some of you) in 2007.

The fact that you all think Tony Alvarez and Mike Kafoure care is hilarious. Strike and they close your bakery or better yet just send in the Scabs to do your piss poor jobs.

KING IS BACK..........

Hey GUESS? IN OAKLAND: Don't you worry about Sac Transport Office Foreman, Bastards........ If it wasn't for them, the Distributions "Mickey Mouse Club" LMAO, would be at the bottom of Davey Jones locker already. Just because we're better than you..oooooo...... LOL SLACKERS!!!!

Central distribution center??? Is that why they brought in a shipping manager from Target Dist. Center? The next step is to take over the Transport office (hahahaha) no more need for transport foreman in the offfice. (not that they need you in there anyway) They did it to us and they will do it to you, its a matter of time.........................

Honeyman still here Mr. taliban Papi too. You can't celebrate yet biotch! Now ,if these two leave Nor Cal is in trouble.

The CDC is just around the corner, - central distribution center-. Hold on to your lug nuts, this will get interest ing.

what a bunch of fucking loosers.............

Henderson - who is left there to run the place? I heard that the ones who didn't leave yet are being run off by that Sara Lee reject Rick. What happened to Cothran? I thought he would have become Chief when Chris left. Is Tom Anderson still there doing nothing, or did they make him take over both sides like he should have? I can't believe that they have left Grovner and both the Wilsons in their jobs. I guess it is because they still have other plants to ruin before they are done.

What happend to Sacramento Distribution? It's like the Mickey Mouse Club out there. You got Hickory telling Dickery what to do but Dock feels left out. You got Gappy running around looking Goofy and acting like he knows something. I think Mr. Peabody is the only one that has an idea of what the hell to do but his hands are tied by Hickory. Dickery is trying to backstab Dock and no one knows where the hell the paychecks are. One things for sure, Bluto in Oakland can't put up with the saga much more or it will be his "Olives" on the line! M I C.... K E Y..... M O U S E..... LA LA LA..... LA LA LA

HEY JAR I SEE YOU DO NOT WANT PEOPLE TO BRING STARBUCKS COFFEE TO RON. BUT I HEARD THAT YOU BEEN TAKING HIM TO LUNCH AND GOING TO THE CASINOS.

Hey Doug Greer have you smoked some pot with Johnny Peterson like you used to lately. You always said your days off you can do what you want. Oopps I hope they don't start doing drug testing you just had the weekend off.

Razz,makes alot of sense.Go get them Razz. What happen to the fat dyke bitch from Dayton married to the drunk that knew everything? I hope Martha Stewart buys the whole damn mess. Did she get out of prison? Did she know the fat dyke bitch from Dayton with thw drunk husband? Oh well the stock looks good at $2.75 unless you biught it at $2.76 or higher.

Martha Stewart to buy 3 bakery plants from IBC details hushhhhh as if they can keep this under their hats long

If Andrews is gone,shouldn't Mayesfkie and Ruggles be the next to go?

Stand strong brothers and sisters of BCTGM. Strike the bastards!!!

Bakers Inn,LOL,they don't want the public to know who makes it for christ sake! how is it going to save this F'd up company?the Orlando plant from what i'v been told is one of the better running plants,lol,you better hope thats not true!!the roll line throws out more then it makes and the downtime is starting to add-up.They hire new people but they have nobody to learn from.

Xmas party is canceled due to lack of employee's not out on W/C or disability........

Hey, home-loan-refinancing - That was a dirty trick! I cliked on the link hoping to see a site for us, gentlemen of class, but it's nothing but a stinking sales pitch for home loans. Jerk!

To BHBBC: Top of the morning to ya. It is good to finally see a couple of intelligent post's on here.Have a couple of cold one's on me. Alot of people do not like what I have to say, but the "truth ", alway's hurts . The end is near "Almighty One".New job, and REO Speedwagon is about to put out a new CD. "Happy Ending". Go to their Myspace.com\Speedwagon they have some samples of their new music. "I Believe in Santa Claus", it is awesome. It will remind some of Hi Infidelity.Keep Pushin" everyone it will be over soon...

Santa works at the Lenexa bakery and I doubt he's going to Cali to get your bitching ass.

we always said that baker's inn would never be able to compete with the likes of Brownberry Bread. (sold in other markets under the names friehoffers and arnolds.) these are Weston products, and they are good. in this area, Brownberry is king. just ask all the yuppies, the seniors, the health nuts, and the moms looking for a healthy loaf of bread to feed their families. bye-bye bakers inn...

To Anon in KC: You are absolutely right about concentrating on what they were good at. They use to be able to produce a loaf of bread and dominate the market. Are you telling me that if they produce a $3.00 loaf that noone wants to buy , then it will be more profitable? ONLY if someone is willing to buy it. The company has alway's made money on mass production of snack cakes and bread. They should have got rid of Dolly Madison when they could have. The reason why I say this is that Hostess alway's said that it was not profitable enough to produce our snack cakes. "Maybe" , it was those stupid prison contracts, school's, vendor's and so forth. Now they are packaging Dolly under the Hostess label, albeit about seven years too late. I have alway's tried to figure out the idiot syncrasies of the way they operated . Oh well , pretty soon it will all be over...

Bakers Inn is going to save the Company, so say's Mr. Alvarez. With more then 45% stale on this product I think it may be time to move on. This company keeps losing money every month, unless of course they sell some realestate. If people have not found were the Bakers Inn is by now after 1 1/2 years, I don't think they are going to find it at all.

norm andrews is gone . he quit 12/6/06 . very interesting hey ?

Re: Any More Bright Ideas? You are right , the biggest problem this campany has is the stupid ass's coming up with dumb ideas like Bakers Inn. Anyone who has been in the baking industy for more than day or two knows that what people look for from a mass producer of bake goods is good cheap products. Anyone looking to spend 3.00+$'s for a loaf of bread buys it at a in store bakery or a place like that. What this company needs to do is concentrate on making a loaf of sliced bread that is good enough to feed your kids a damn samwhich without putting you in the poorhouse!

Is mohammed still working there?

Comment: with sales down ,now they will play with the numbers again buy plussing up cake let it set the warehouse until its almosy off of date then they will give it away WITH SALES DOWN???????? THIS COMPANY HASN'T SHOWED A PROFIT SINCE GOING BANKRUPT.

Bill M. glad to hear your still alive and well........this place is almost a memory of what it used to be. I'm sure your enjoying a long deserved retiremen. We need a sanitarian if your interested...........Stay well friend

Pipe down Akers

This board is vry disturbing. I just found out about it through an acquaintance. I worked there many years ago and it is very sad to hear so many disgruntled posters. I don't know if anyone I worked with is working there still. I worked in the sanitation dept. and I knew many of the managers in the 70's. I hope things get better for all of you.

Anyone knows the whereabouts of this relic? Rumor has Ed "Captain Hook" Craft in a mental ward?

Hey Millbrook : What did you people do to your HR lady? We sent you a gal with a fine looking bod and you assholes beat her into a cellulite-dimpled-saddle-bag-sagging-ass thing. She's unrecognizable!

Remember what I told you about what happens after Jan. 1 ?

December 6, 2006 KANSAS CITY, Mo. --Interstate Bakeries Corp., the bankrupt maker of Twinkies and Wonder bread and the owner of J.J. Nissen bakery in Biddeford, Maine, said Wednesday its monthly loss grew 34 percent in October on flat sales and costs. For the four weeks ending Oct. 21, the Kansas City-based company said it lost $10.1 million on sales of $222.6 million. In September, the company lost $7.5 million on $226 million in revenue. Costs of goods sold and other operating expenses during October increased slightly from the previous month to $223.7 million. During the same period a year ago, the company reported a loss of $19 million on sales of $231.8 million. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court has required monthly reports from Interstate Bakeries since the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September 2004.
