Re:watching the watchers Wekow, along with everyone knew what days they were supposed to work, thats why he showed up. The foreman was the one who designed the work schedule. Then he forgot to put him on the dispatch sheet. Wake up and pay attention Transport Foremen.You say help run the place better! Let me tell you, if you would listen to Wekow and the other drivers and stop pushing your own sludge around, you just might realize that these guys have some good suggestions. Their not all being cry babies. All I'am saying is pay attention and see the big picture. Being a leader also means being human. That goes for the Foremen, drivers and shop steward. Being a leader is just the beginning of everything running down hill.. So, why don't you all shut up and do your own jobs. Or, at least do them while you can. They will probably be gone in the near future.

Look everyone here knows exactly what is about and/or is going to happen dont be fools some of us are educated, If you are union stick with it you're probably Ok,when you leave or quit believe me Tricia Rasche will fall all over herself to make sure you are properly compensated "Unions rule huh Trisch" IF YOU ARE COMPANY HEAVEN HELP YOU when you leave you had better be ready too fight for your money which I have and done and received everything I will admit, but only because I contacted Rowdy via email.... Stealing Ok I was an engineering supervisor in St. Louis for years and can/will let anyone know if they're interested (watch out Doug you tried to rip me off now I will get even if invited) this is not a malicious email to all employees but only a warning if the bakeries are sold or not, this company will fail due simply to higher ups (chiefs and better ) who have the opportunity to make underhanded deals every chance they get and unfortunately this company is a cover your own ass type (CYA) which prevents any auditor to look properly into this sort of issue that is certainly taking you down 1 penny at a time (been here for years and now am convinced) Yes all of my mechanics know my name and some supervisors do to, it doesnt matter because this message will be my proof of ill conduct regarding me or my family and when/if anything should occur I will at least be compensated WELL via lawsuit (ST LOUIS) just like everyone else thanks to you Trishe (WELL ESTABLISHED TRACK RECORD BY NOW LADY).....Yeah the problems are on bread and in human resources and if you were to contact anyone who would'nt lose their job for talking Hint: union employees they will certainly say the same things as for you company ladies and gentleman I will be your voice as I know you can't or won't speak your mind due to fear St. Louis ins and outs being provided cya

if anyone dares to share info, would anyone know what happened with the wrongful labor practice court proceeding up here in the northeast. the supers were basically told either to jump on the company bandwagon or lose your job. as always, the company yet again made another f**k up and broke the rules of the contract for supervisors. if anyone heard what might have happened please let all of us know and show how the people in charge do not know how to run this company.

  Comment: Being paid to watch grass grow may sound like the ideal job, but it's not, folks! And, IBC has been requiring their entire workforce for the last several years to do nothing but to watch their all but dead-grass, suck whatever remaining life after bankrupcy, they may have left in their bodies and minds, from this corporate-level liathon. And, let's not forget to mention the other two dummies at IBC, namely the Bakers and the Teamster unions who have shown the world that they are ready for nothing in life other than to serve as bad examples! The visual I see is where all three are leading a Death March into Hell, where the Devil stands ready to receive them all. Happy Trails and don't come back...ever!

If Wekow wasn't on the dispatch then why did he show up? He would have paid forty ten hours for any day he wasn't dispatched antway... He just wanted to stir up a bunch of shit.. Alex is a much of the problem as managment is. Way to set the standard Mr. Shop Steward. Now stop wearing sandals to work and help the company run better rather than trying to prove your ridiculous points...

OK.....another waste of money and time: The last 3 days all the routes in my depot have been plussed around $500 of extra product so someone can hit thier numbers before the end of the fiscal year. Never mind the money spent for the ingredients, the money spent on labor making the product and tranporting it. Just so the RSR can put the product that they did not order and do not need in the backroom of thier stores, which will sit there till it goes out of date. No wonder we are in BR. So much waste just so someone can get a bonus for hitting thier numbers.

Heard you all wondered were I went - Like the rest of the Furture Management - I left - there is no future with this company. I left for a whole lot more money and better benefits and no pressure from Bankruptcy. The best thing is NO DAMM UNIONS either. For those who are left - I wish you luck, but like so many others - I no longer wanted to deal with the stress of dealing with the old gaurd - to bad all those of us who were destined to be the next management team have left and moved on to bigger and better firms. Personally I had 15 years of Management Experience within the Bakery Business - and no one under me was ready to step up to the plate to take over - I was trying to train them - but they were smart as well and left the sinking ship - so the future is very bleak for IBC. Oh don't worry Jung will bring in more from PepsiCo to run the team - to bad they do not understand short life cycle products - this isn’t pop bottles that can sit on the shelves for months at a time. The only other thing I think that needs to be stated is that the HR / Labor Departments are selling you all out both Non-Union and Union (and yes both BCTGM and Teamsters) are as well the agreements being drawn up in the back rooms and strip clubs/bars is disgusting, but that he how all these idiots operate - I will not miss, (okay some of the girls in the strip clubs i will miss), the crap. Good bye from the Insider.

Re: Re: watching and waiting. Theres a solution. Its called check your rack counts and dispatch the loads properly. You knew how many racks there were to go to Reno/Carson before Jones left. You can't dodge the bullits this time, admit that you made a mistake and don't let it happen again. Thats the hard part "admitting" that you made a poor decision. You're here to do a job and nothing more. So pull your head out of where ever it is, let it see the sun and DO YOUR JOB PROPERLY. The racks getting to the depot was never an issue, they would have gotten there either way.

Attn: Brian Howel, Jeff Jernigan and Rick Schoenberg. Subject: Transport Foreman.. What is going on with your foreman? Why is it that he left a man (Wekow) off the dispatch monday night and tuesday night? Then on tuesday night he sends him on a needless shag run. To top it off, he sends an extra board driver to Reno with ten racks on his truck, while the Reno/Carson truck left out of here with 12 holes. Doesn't he realize that fuell is $5.00 a gallon? If he would have taken a look at the situation, he would have known he screwed up and sent them home. He would have saved the company a few hundred dollars in fuel cost. He still would have cost the company for the mens wages, but it would have been a smaller cost if he told them to stay home. Maybe its time you BOSSES took a look at what is going on upstairs. I know for a fact that if Ryan would quit doing the managers job duties he might have more time to concentrate on TRANSPORT FOREMAN DUTIES. Might just save his department $1000's of dollars. There are problems in this Shipping and Transport department, I just can't figure out why tou guys don't pay attention to it and do something about it. To sit here and watch what is going on, for so long now. Its absolutely incredible that these people are not held responsible for the growing neglect of there primary job duties. Will one of you guys please take some action and put an end to this once and for all?

Why is it the company spends more time violating workers rights than trying to create a more efficient bakery. All we ever hear is the company emerging, what about trying to make a profit. Give any worker in the plant the keys to the company and I bet my salary they could do a better job. Maybe this is because the employee would like to keep his/her employment and cares about the company he works for. Jung has done nothing to create an efficient machine, but instead keeps cutting away and eliminating. He even pays for people to spend their time on this website trying to manipulate the workers.

Attention all laid off SoCal employees the date for the severance arb is June 24, 2008. Hard to believe the company just will not pay 1/2 week severance to anyone who wants it and then if deal gets done can hire new employees with no experience to run their new system. Severance is peanuts compared to the way this company knows how to lose money. In case you guys did not notice Kansas City does not love you in fact you are just another problem to them.

  Comment: Inspire me today to discover the words and the deeds that are necessary to educate and to sustain American labor in their pursuit of absolute truth and justice for all. What our founding families have declared for this Nation, should not now be put asunder by criminal acts or minds. Neither should its people who labor for their daily bread, be made to do their Master's bidding solely upon the basis of monetary wealth. The individual and collective needs of Mankind simply cannot be met with just this one thing when we have an entire universe before us, none of which we will ever fully understand. We are each one person with one life to live. Don't waste it by waiting around their workplace to see what IBC may or may not do, someday!

Let's put the IBC bull aside for today. I'd like to thank all of you who served in Armed Forces for all you sacrifices. Yeah we get jerked around, ripped off and abused at IBC. They may send us out on patrol to check schematics, overcode, etc. But there's never any land mines and we don't get killed. Further, as much as we hate to admit it, we can move on. The men and women soldiers in Iraq and previous wars can not. Enjoy your families today and don't worry about the buns on the grill, who made them, whether they arrived late at depot, you had to purchase from a competitor, etc. Just be happy your buns are safe in America thanks to the Armed Forces. Good day to all.

I feel for you Billings,Mt., Bet your supervisor wont even come out and help anyone, there too busy sitting on their fat asses tring to find something they can write you up for. Call the labor board, there has got to be some kind of state law for working that many hours. usually need at least 8 hours off inbetween shifts. Stand up for yourself, thats modern day slavery. Whoever wrote that previous post is an asshole, they need to learn some compassion. They will get theirs someday.

  Comment: Being responsible means that you have to know when you're playing against a stacked deck. The fix is in and for the most part, those that are playing this bankruptcy game at the top of this food chain know it. It's "show time," folks and when the last curtain falls, you better find yourself outside or else have a ton of money ready and waiting for you to lean against when those hurricane winds blow what's left of IBC upside down. The hardest hit will be taken by those in the retirement age brackets due to the mismangement of these programs. The least hardest hit will be those just coming into the workforce because of their young age. And, for those that wait around till the end does arrive, they will all find it impossible to replace their income level without spending at least 5 years, working their way back up the proverbial ladder. Shit happens but don't help them put you in a box!

They are run down and come with employees with bad attitudes. Look around and you can only agreed our work force is weak in all departments. They will service the market with their exsisting bakerys or build new. There is nothing to gain purchasing any of the rundown bakeries. The reason IBC is not talking to employees is because they have not accomplished nothing. Go to work take the check as long as it last and look for a fuckin job. Nobody is buy any of IBC property with exsisting work force. You can take that to the bank. Look at southern Cal. If you worked for IBC you don't stay a chance to even get on with a competitor, THEY DON"T WANT YOU, find another career. YOU KNOW YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD THEM IBC HAS GIVEN US OUR BAD WORKFORCE BY KEEPING THEM IN THE DARK YOU DUMBASS

i posted (2) days ago about our competitors purchasing pieces of IBC, I was interviewing with one of these competitors for a upper management position which it was a panel interview. They laughed about the idea of taking over any of the bakerys, I was told in that meeting that they don't want any of the property or the work force. IBC is on their own. They will service the market with what they have in place and if need build new. This came straight from Sara Lee.

Now...is that how a high level manager conducts himself??? Booneville...what is your grade level...what is you annual pay. I am an RSR in Denver...and by the way...my DSM knows I post and who I am and loves my opinions of you. Because, our whole branch believes you are a phoney. Come clean pal.

And you announced them by position?? Of course...that is something any high level manager in any Company would do....right??? Uh..NO. I hope those folks terminated find out who you are when you announce to the world your position with the company....because you have just put your dear company in a bad position...that is being the high level executive you are. You are a phoney and you know it.

Uh, DENVER...are you for real? First of all, it is "common" knowledge regarding the situation in Northwood AND the situation in Dayton. There is nothing unethical about disucssing something that has already happened. And there is certainly nothing unethical about advising the rest fo the management team about a situation and what the Company's expectations are. Hilarious how you're becoming like FLY and CHESTY....quick to point out what you perceive are others' faults, but at teh same time failiing to acknowledge that your main concern is your disagreement with the message.

Young Gun, the people on this site are just vending their frustration over being in the dark over the last four years in bankrupcy. The Union and the Kansas City leadership have both being working behind the closed doors and niether has been total honest with the employees or members. The Teamsters put in writing no more give backs and after looking at the books changed their mind. The Bakery's and Mechanics just caved to the Company's demands. And Yen is yet to put his beloved Path to Market to use. It would have save the company why not impliment. Trust no one!!!!

OK BOONEVILLE: A manager as high as you are and in the positon to be "in the know"...doesn't ever dilvulge information or facts involving personel who have been terminated. TOTALLY UNETHICAL !!!! REMEMBER THIS ONE A FEW DAYS AGO BY YOU........."SANFORD: And in Northwood they fired the Chief Engineer, Asst. Chief Engineer, and an engineer for stealing. I willl lay odds to anyone who wants them that at least three get fired in Dayton." ONCE AGAIN BOONEVILLE...you are a phoney who wants people to believe you are something you ARE NOT. YOU JUST LOVE TO GOSSIP. No Company would have you as a manager. I told you this a long time ago...you must have a very small dick. And finally...I'm taking all bets that you will never, ever, let anyone know who you are. Because you know we won't be impressed.

If I didn't care I wouldn't be on here. Do you guys go check out Dr Phils or Martha Stewart website ? No because you don't care. So if you read this which you are, if you respond to this which you will then you care. Ok it's all right call me names say what you want, but I got you because you care.

KC: Are you really that dense? Did I NOT SAY during the conference call I was on NO statement such as what you indicated was made? Does that not answer your question? Does my boss know I post on here as Booneville? No...does your boss know you post on here? That's the purpose of the whole board....the ability to openly talk and discuss issues affecting IBC. The problem is that in most cses it is no longer "discussion". It has turned into "attack anyone who doesn't agree with your point". Some of you are actually pathetic with your diatribes. It's as if it's all you live for: to come on this board and see how big of an ass you can make of yourself. By the way, I am not a clerk...when the proper time comes, I will divulge my actual title with IBC. You will be surprised. You will see that I am in a position to have the "info". DENVER: Post one comment I made that would be considered a "leak".

Denver says it best about Booneville. Booneville is just a wanna be management person. He has NO type of management rsponsibilty at all. Just a wanna be, who feels like a big shot by spreading his gossip on this site. Any and everything he spreads is just here say and gossip that anyone can pick up at the "water cooler" Booneville is nothing more than a clerk at best (not that there is anything wrong with that). He just likes to think he is a big shot...............But everyone take note>>>.West is sold to Bimbo>>>>South and Northeast sold to Sara Lee>>>>>>Midwest to remain IBC>>>>>>Take this to the bank, it is fact....announcement will be comming soon.....plan your lives accordingly !!!

Nice try Boonie. You did not answer my question. Let's try again. Are you denying that you were told and other managers were told by your boss that the bulk of the effort would now go to working on the orderly sale and less on emergence. A simple yes or no will do. And my source is as good as yours.

BOONEVILLE: ANSWER THE QUESTION FROM THIS PREVIOUS POST....C'mon. Don't insult our intelligence. I can copy and paste a hundred posts by you that would be considered a "leak" by any Companies standards. Now, answer my questions....does your boss know you're "Booneville" and posting on this site??? The answer is "no." And if I'm wrong, and the answer is "yes", you should come clean and give you and your boss' name....so your comments can have some credibility. What would be the harm. But the answer is "no", because you aren't who you say you are. Otherwise, you would be a very unethical manager....and doing your Company very wrong. Ethical, professional and loyal Company management personel, which you aren't, will let Company spokes people and Company announcements do the talking and educating of it's employees. You're simply a very insecure individual, who simply wants the people on this site to think you are someone of importance, and you aren't. The real fact is...you put your ear to every door possible, listening to the rumors and assumptions coming down from other uninformed and unethical management...and you spread it. You should be ashamed of yourself. People on this site should not trust you a lick.

Are you for real, Denver? Do you really think that we're gonna even have a CHANCE to tell IBC fuck you if the investors get the deal done and they want to emerge? Do you really think that Hoffa and Volpe are going to leave the future of 9000 dues paying members up to us? Get real. IBT is in bed with IBC. Always were, always are, and always wll be. IBT isn't even going to go anywhere near being balmed on this company closing based on a contract vote. Start thikiing with your brain.

  Comment: It's not IBCs fault if their Christian workforce can't make bread without flour! Nor is it their fault that once they market the product, other Christians refuse to ingest it. And, who cares if they are losing millions of dollars each passing week, if their doors are still open and their ovens are breathing fire? Dumbing down America is alive and well at IBC, folks! Pre-employment brain scans and in-house propaganda programs help to ensure this little house of cards keeps running like a cloned Timex watch.

because of high fuel cost we will be forced to close many of our most out laying areas(i.e.) places out side real city limits. sorry but business is business and we can not afford the fuel to drop off this product any longer. you ask why your loads are late and it`s because we are trying to save on fuel, run trucks with better fuel mileage. remember this is a business first ,and business is what matters. the way it is going we will be out of business soon. sorry to let you in on it, but we have not made any profit in 3 long years. but do remember ibc is in your best interest,as long as your willing to give and give so more.

A too familiar tactic from Bonnie. On the 19th I asked Boonie a direct question, "are you denying a statement was made that the bulk of the time would now be spent on an orderly sale of the company, not emergence". He did not post again for 2 days, and when HE (and it is a HE) posted again he acted like my question was never asked. I have caught Boonie before and this is always the action he takes. Answer the question my friend.

I'm going to let the cat out of the bag, True IBC is finished, and Sara Lee along with other are not intrested in any of the bakeries. They are run down and come with employees with bad attitudes. Look around and you can only agreed our work force is weak in all departments. They will service the market with their exsisting bakerys or build new. There is nothing to gain purchasing any of the rundown bakeries. The reason IBC is not talking to employees is because they have not accomplished nothing. Go to work take the check as long as it last and look for a fuckin job. Nobody is buy any of IBC property with exsisting work force. You can take that to the bank. Look at southern Cal. If you worked for IBC you don't stay a chance to even get on with a competitor, THEY DON"T WANT YOU, find another career.

its been quiet now for almost 2 weeks. private label bread is taking over the market up here. We are once again the SLEEPING GIANT. for those who are doing a whopping business you best pray PTM never gets implamented. but i guess it wont happen until 2010 at least. as far as i am concerned the teamsters are pathetic and should be deunionized. for those who had their eyes opened the TEAMSTERS REFUSED TO GO TO THE TABLE SAYING WE HAD GIVEN UP ENOUGH MONEY AND THEY SENT PETITIONS AROUND HAVING US SIGN TO SAY CURRENT MANAGEMENT TEAM NOT DEPENDABLE. OH AND YES THEY STATED IN LETTER THAT THEY WOULD RATHER SEE ibc LIQUADATE THAN USE ibcS PLAN ptm. THESE ARE FACTS (REMEMBER!) SO LETS SEE! give concessions now of $115 a week and if PTM comes lose thousands more a year. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW IN HELL THE TEAMSTERS CAN LOOK US STRAIGHT IN THE EYE AND TELL YOU ITS THEIR DESIRE FOR YOU TO ACCEPT THE BULL CRAP. ON A CLOSING NOTE GAS JUST WENT UP 6 CENTS IN 2 DAYS TO 3.79.

Re: Anon denver,Co. do you REALLY expect to get a straight answer? 1) As i understand it mgmt is not to deal directly with us so if he said "yes im a paid" then mgmt would be in violation of the contract and held liable if proven. 2) If he said no the 1) he could be lieng because of reason no 1. 3) He could say no and it would be the truth and maybe he has some motive for helping us out. Does it really matter to me as an IBC employee? No as he seems to be the ONLY source of ANY information available. So take it for what it worth and make your own calls but if you got better info then please speak up! Part of the benifit of this site is for people to maintian their identity and say whats "on their minds" weather its info or what happened today at work or what the F ever without fear of repraislals from mgmt. which includes mgmt but NOT upper management (in my opinion) as they are in the same boat aka. Titanic as we are!

You say you are part of conference calls and meetings where very inside information is exposed....also, you were hired by our company because of your experience with bankrupt companies....obviously, they must trust you and ask your opinion on lots of decisions...right? So, something doesn't make sense. Does your boss know you are the informant to all the people on this site?? Does he know you are "Booneville"...and really shouldn't trust you with the information you are hearing during these meetings because everyone and their brother will eventually hear it from you. I just don't understand...is this what your being paid to do??? Otherwise, it just doesn't make sense...you being everything you say you are.

Nope. As of last Friday, the message hadn't changed. First point of business: work with the three investors to emerge as a stand-alone. Second point of business: continue work on an orderly sale of Company/assets if point #1 can't be finalized. No one has said that #1 can't be finalized and is dead as some are intimating.

Yeah, You are right "Facts Be Damned." you just proved my point. Morris has been stealing for years and was still employed. You now states they weren't fired for stealing. I guess stealing is condoned at IBC as we all thought. Furthermore, I really feel sorry for Tom Morris who was ONLY involved because the mechanics got HIM involved because he is a model employee otherwise. LOL Morris came to work while (FREE) on his vacation. Do you really expect anyone to believe he was doing it for any other reason than to steal the scrap money ??

Facts be damned, huh Columbus???? For the record, it was the mechanics who got Morris involved in the scheme; it was the mechanics who were performing work they weren't to do "on company time"; and it was the mechanics who lied about how the guy got hurt. By the way...none of them were fired for "stealing". But the facts don't really matter, do they?

Its about time they got rid of Tom Morris (dirt bag). IBC has refused to do anything about him for years even though they know he is a theif. He would still be employed if it weren't for the accident which injured the mechanic. Without the accident, he would deny everything like he has always done and the morons at corporate would have forgotten about it. IBC shares in the fault on his injury because they let Morris do anything he wanted without concern for retaliation from the company. We all know he was stealing large amounts of product at the Fairfield depot which was easily proven by checking trailer sheets. The company also never did anything about the missing checks which were supposed to go to the route salesmen. It was easy to verify if those checks were cashed and if they weren't the company would have issued new ones. IBC was negligent by allowing such a dishonest person to manage subordinates. Tom Morris's dishonesty led directly to the mechanics injury and the mechanic will surely say he was influenced by Morris's position. If the mechanic can't work again due to his injury, it is likely IBC will pay disability and medical for him for the rest of his life in the form of workers comp. Another good decision by the idiots at GO !!

Guys, doesn't anybody get it? This company has gone beyond the idea of making money and into the idea of hiding money. Craig Jung has not done any of the things he was broght on to do and in the meantime the company has been raped. There are very few internal controls that could catch up with what is going on at every location.Dust off your path to market video nd put it on ebay under fiction, this guy couldn't put Big Brown across the finish line with a 7 length lead..

Really We here in the Southeast don't know what is going on because G.O. is keeping everything in the dark!!! Why wasn't there anything out about the big meeting in IL.? the investors was there and Jung? why are we being kept in the dark again?

Happy trails Vern. Another transport foreman gone. Now Ryan can work his magic (yeh right) once again and bring in the man of HIS choice. Although I don't think Rick is going to lay down for Ryan. Maybe he will bump Ryan and show some real leadership qualities on the day shift. It doesn't really matter, this place will be gone pretty soon anyway.........

Re; the stripper's comment -"((alls ibc has to do is drop some weight off their bread and sell it for the same price. everybody else is doing it... daaaaa.......))" - - - Sounds so simple, but it ain't. IBC has already diluted its formulas and is also using the cheapest, lowest quality ingredients available. The only factor now is the high cost of transport and labor. PTM will address some of these transport issues. Getting rid of these union leeches will address the rest.

What about the crate motors that were orderd for the route trucks that might have had a blown motor. How about all those tractor and trailer tires that they say the Davis Trucking Company switched out. The list goes on!!!!

Thieves are like roaches if you catch one you really have 1000's hiding in the walls/in the cabinets /under the refreigerator and about everyplace else. it is the goodolBoyz system at its Best, you look the other way for me and ill look the other way for you! If you screw up and get caught; tuff i never knew you anyways! Also it is the system of unaacountability that is so pervasive. My sister in law is an accountant and when i tell her of the Accounting controls (or lack of it) she just shakes her head in disbelief! How can a Multimillion dollar company (thats in bk) have virtually NO acounting controls? Lets me name a few product theft( bread and cakes), scrap theft (well anything that was worth selling and not bolted securely to the floor), item theft ( all kinds of new equipment ie. porta bands,welders that never get used because all thats ever said that maintenance doesnt have the tools to do this or that! or cant fix this or that equipment becaue they dont have this or that part? oh, yeah wheres all the stuff you guys ordered last week?) , time theft (people punching each other in and out on a regular basis). Well thoise are a few right off the top of my head. But im sure there are more that i forgot or new ones i havent heard about so if anyone has any new theft/schemes they would like to share feel free i can always use a good laugh!

I can't believe that you need 3 guys to do the Job of One. Who taught you guys how to screen for a worthwhile candidate? I guess the real truth is that a leader such as yourselves, will never hire anyone who could possibly do a better job than you. If you did, they just might be noticed and your job would be in jepardy. Oh, I forgot that wouldn't happen . Theres nobody worth shit above you either that would notice anything. Thats why its only a matter of time untill the doors are closed and locked permenantly.

Long story short Banks got busted and Tom was tucked safe away in Dayton . We all know about Tom and how dirty his hands are . Give him what he pissin deserves THE BOOT !

The other KC. If there is extra clutter, there should a reason. The ass chewers are almost worst than thieves, because they have no idea what is going on. They will not, and never will understand all the variables that come into play. These ass chewers are even more dangerous than thugs who steal.

KC. I am not ignorant nor naive. I have personally SEEN an enormous amount of current, relevant and even new items being tossed NOT simply to remove "clutter" but because it would be uncomfortable to explain why it wasn't being used! I have seen new display racks thrown out only to be reordered a month later. This is happening in many locations. In a perfect world the supervisors would have a reasonable explanation for their excess. Problem is this is far from a perfect world and they know the alternative is an ass-chewing at minimum so the result is bury the problem and everybody is happy. If you don't think this is happening nearly everywhere, you haven't been paying attention. Numerous posters on this site have made the same claims. Think it is all just housecleaning?

Geeze, I am sorry, but I gotta throw in another point. Old shoes should be thrown away right from the first, but items that have value (ie scrap metal) should never be left to thugs who want to make a dime at the expense of hard working employees. This stuff has value and every little bit helps for a company in bankruptcy. In fact, some companies will provide dumpsters for you. Tho they charge you for hauling, you still save becuase you don't have to require employees to spend time on it.

The other KC. In a perfect world, nobody should be throwinfg away stuff becuase they fear a management visit. If there is excess material, it should be kept in order and one should easily be able to explain its presence....even if it were an error. It makes no sense to make a mistake twice as bad by throwing away stuff that could possibly be used elsewhere. However, there is a lot of material that is old and simply cannot be used in the future. Often it is more costly to tow away these items and/or try to reclaim minimal scrap value. So even if items are discarded, which is quite normal for large companies, it should not imply wrongtdoing or error. One must also be aware of space issues and safety. If you don't throw away things (which have no value) you will begin to look like an attic or the sloppiest garage that ever existed. For fun...I say....go ahead and throw away that old pair of shoes that you never wear anymore. You will never be able to sell them, they have no use, and are really only clutter that serve no purpose. If you have excess clutter, you won't be able to manage equipment that is good, and clutter can also limit space, and possibly inhibit safety. For example, let's say you have a 65' vacuum cleaner in your garage. Are you ever gonna use it again, are you ever gonna be able to sell it. Even if it had scrao value, are you going to have an employee take 4-hours out of his work day to deal with it? NO. Just because things wind up in the dumpster, does not reveal wrongdoing.

Kansas City.... You are somewhat correct in differentiating between mistakes and stealing. I have on numerous occassions witnessed members of management deliberately filling dumpsters with unused and relevant sales promotional materiel and racks simply because they were expecting visits from their superiors AND paying extra for quick pickup. I've personally seen supervisors (and Thrift Store managers) discard in code and even fresh product solely to cover their a**. Please explain to me the difference. They may not be directly benefitting in dollars but are definitely benefitting by a lack of accountability and/or reprimand. I am not saying theft is OK as it hurts us all, but to get so incensed over the theft of a twinkie (yes, it has happened) and then look the other way when the theft is indirect seems a bit hypocritical top say the least. I know upper management is aware, they simply CHOOSE to disregard the latter.. It ain't all mistakes!

Hats off to those who brought this forth. No company is benign from the threat of theft, so it may be unfair to critique IBC if it is discovered. In fact this might be good.

One more point. To a certain degree you must practice a certain amount of trust. Being honest, if some dirtbag wanted to steal, he is going to try. In general, when you rely on the honesty of others, you are seldom let down. Maybe this is why this enrages me so much. To think some thug can take advantage of all of us who are trying to keep employed. To Defiance and Columbus. It does not matter how big or small. Stealing is stealing. But from what you wrote, you seem to be describing mistakes. Stealing and Mistakes are two completely different issues.

Waterloo, you are correct. But even if that process took place, it would not prevent some low-life from backing his truck to the dock and haul away other stuff. Somebody must oversee these loading docks. Otherwise we are going to have these numbskull profiteers who want to make a buck because maybe they think the company is going down and they want to take care of #1. These people need to be seeked and rooted out if we want to get back to being a professional company. Nobody should tolerate this shit.

We toss tens of thousands of dollars a day in product and reusable material and it is just fine as far as they are concerned, yet let us catch you with a twinkie that's not in your load and you will be subject to dismissal. I think I would rather saves thousands of dollars and trust my empoyees by hiring and training the right people for the job

As for the theft that went on in Dayton They will get to keep theirs jobs, they might fire one person but that will be it. Tracy is screwing Big Ole Tom so she doesn't have to worry. They said they were going to turn over the money they got from the scrap yard back to the company, if so why did they split it between themselves, hum. If the accident hadn't of happened , we would know nothing of this and they would have split about 5 grand. It's nice to know we have a Union that will back us if we decide to start stealing. Gotta love that.

I have a question for the Anon who posted about the people getting suspended with pay for stealing and/or using company equipment. How is it they are PAID on suspension? Are they Teamsters or management? I know of several union people that have been suspended without pay for a variety of stupid reasons (schematics, etc) but nothing criminal like stealing. Please enlighten.

Do you really think Boonie was on assignment? That he has not been on the site in days?A presentation to upper management? What a load of crap. All he is is a management blowhard.This guy could give a s---t how this company comes out of BK as long as the union members lose.

Dont believe anything that boondog has to say! he is only jung's lap dog and is only here to spread lies! Sure he puts enough truth to make it hard to tell the truth from his outright lies!The only thing he is on here for is to keep unions fighting amongst theirselves and convince some the weak of mind on here to his and Jungs way of thinking! to those of you who post about IBC's lies and corruption you are wasting your time boondog is probably getting kick backs from it!

Actually, KNOXVILLE, I have been out of the office on an assignment for the past four days. It wrapped up late this evening and I'll be heading back tomorrow. I haven't had the time to even get online the past three days until tonight. Was researching and putting together a presentation for some of the upper management. Was a very busy week with lots of talking to people on both sides of the table...both management and union workers, and the results were as I expected they would be...not good. Not really in the mood to banter and discuss tonight. By the way...care to post a link to your internet source of the information about Craig Jung?

I guess this is the best company you can work for if you want to get away with stealing. We just had 5 people steal from this company, and they are all going to get by with it . Right now they are off with paid suspension. Tom Morris the Supervisor ( Ring Leader). Tim the Mechanic , Ron the Mechanic, he's still in the hospital. Tracy the loader also know as Tom's side Blow. And Julie the route driver who this company doesn't even know was involved and isn't even off with pay . For some reason the rest of the are covering up for her. Maybe Tracy is doing her too. This company is going to let these thieves get by with this. While they are watching the rest of us because we might steal a Twinkie, these people took out company equipment and made big scrap metal money from it. I only feel bad for Ron the one who got hurt and got them all busted but he did get injured badly. So remember you can steal from this company and get paid at the same time. Oh what a great job!

  Comment: Anyone remember my Dad? His name is Ramon Meneses, he retired from the Charter Oaks Depot a couple of years back, he started with Langendorf at the 62nd Street Depot across from Hostess, his route was moved to the N. Hollywood Depot on Atoll off of Sherman Way, then back to 62nd before Dolly Madison where he was in Pico Rivera for a short time before settling at the Dolly Madison Verdugo Depot. After the Hostess/Dolly fiasco, he ended up at the San Fernando Rd Hostess/Wonder depot and finally at Charter Oaks. Anyway, if any of you worked with him, he had a heart attack and had a real rough recovery, if any of you would like to contact him I'm sure it would brighten his day. If you are interested please send me your contact information to: meneses.ramon@gmail.com Thanks for you time. Ramon Jr.

Hey knox you and the rest of your crew are idiots! Why dont you guys grow a pair and tell your boss to go get screwed! Rumor has it someone didnt make the pay offs (so we would be able to pass) this year so no AIB, Apparently that 50 mil didnt include money for that. So ibc is stalling for time till they can get their money right. They cant have a bunch of AIB inspectors running around closing plants becaue they cant pay the extra money for their time share condos and seado's! . Also whats the scoop? I heard maxwell was down there and he was bringing an Ax but havent heard of any chopping, yet. Something about safetly violations is what i heard.

BOONVILLE one day when your all grown up and JUNG sticks it to you, how will you feel then? see the problem isn't the employees, Jung wants to buy Wonder and Hostess, It is known, 5 years ago he wanted to buy it, but buy Wonder only, now if he can get the judge to liquidate he can purchase it cheaper, so yes Jung isn't the man you think he is and if you feel i am lieing ask him, i read this on the net, about his life and his work career, now you may want to work for a back stabbing S.O.B. but we don't and don't lie about you guys NOT having better insurance or stock options or profit sharing, we have all heard you UPPER Dogs have it and have had it for years. quit keeping people in the dark and tell them the truth. After all this and you wonder why we think upper management is the problem,maybe because of people like you who have already been brainwashed by JUNG

Zinger Bringer we do have the price adjustments you mention. I just stay away from bidding those high volume, low dollar routes and still manage avery high average. RTis is done through working with my customers to maximize high dollar volume and low returns. Probably could be better if I didn't have to waste time servicing nonprofitable accounts that our competition refuses.

When they pulled out of So. Calif. all us bread guys became cake men. they sold off or transfered all the newer model trucks. One would think they would keep the best of the bunch, but no, my truck is from 1981. We still have a bunch of the slow beige colored printers from the early 80's and some of the black ones from the late 80's. Most of the desent mgrs. have left or moved on, all that is left is a bunch of inept yes men. you wonder why most of us have a bad attitude. Take care of your people and they will take care of you.

as i try not to question how different ones feel on the concessions by teamster ripplewood it bugs me to no end that you people in favor of it give an excuse like recent price increases should help cover it. WE SHOULD NOT BE ACCEPTING ANY CONCESSIOS OF ANY KIND. HAVE YOU OPENED YOUR EYES AND SHOPPED YET OR BOUGHT GAS OR HEATING FUEL? LATELY SOME HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT TONS OF WASTE BY THIS OUTFIT AND NO ONE DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT? ITS IS A DOWNRIGHT SHAME HOW MUCH THIS OUTFIT WASTES, QUALITY, LACK OF VOLUMN SPECIALS, WE CANT EVEN GET POINT OF SALE STICKERS UP HERE. WE HAVE A ROOM FULL OF BOXES OF STICKERS THAT ARE USELESS. AS I READ I CAN SEE THEIR WASTE HABITS ARE EVERYWHERE! I JUST CALLED MY HEATING COMPANY(IHAVE BEEN DOING BUSINESS WITH THEM FOR OVER 20 YEARS) JUST WENT OVER $4.00 A GALLON. THATS $1.65 MORE A GALLON MORE THAN LAST YEAR AND ITS WARMER WEATHER . YET I AM SUPPOSE TO OK CONCESSIONS TO A COMPANY WHO HAS NO IDEA HOW MUCH THEY WASTE AND KEEPS WASTING. NO WAY AND YOU SHOULD BE TELLING YOUR SHOP STEWARD EVERYDAY NO WAY. LIKE I SAID BEFORE FOR THOSE WHO SAY THEY MAKE ENOUGH MONEY THAT THE $115 A WEEK WONT BOTHER OR EFFECT YOU GOOD FOR YOU BUT I DONT BELIEVE THE MOST OF US CAN ABSORB THAT TYPE OF LOSS. WE ARE CUTTING BACK AT HOME ON EVERYTHING WE CAN. GOOD LUCK

Zinger Bringer I believe that the last few price increases, if you have had them in your market area, should offset the money you are talking about. That is if you have maintained or increased sales in your area.The company will most likely be looking to reduce the comission percentage based on the price increases and has to work through the contract languages to modify this. Think about it all operating costs have gone up and sales gets a pay raise as a result of this. Hurrah for me, too bad for you.

To Anon in Indy, I have pointed out time and time again up to and including Dave Loeser and Craig Jung about the waste. Mr. Jung who was brought on to turn this company around and make it greener and more eficient has no idea what happens. Like you stated we throw thousands away every week and when an attempt to recover it is made supervision says you are not authorized. WTF might as well be on the titanic because we are headed for an iceberg unless someone that knows about sales can take the helm.

Boonville if you only knew what really goes on at the depots you would be shocked. Instead of blaming teamsters and their wages and benefits for the company not making a profit you should look at the dunb things mgmt does that costs the company thousands and thousands. I will give you one example and I can give you many more just like it. Last 4th of July supervision thought the rsrs did not order enough walmart buns so they plussed our depot what they thought they should order. I was the loader at the branch and the other loader and I personally tossed in the dumpster 14 racks of walmart buns that never left the depot. That is 392 trays. 3528 pkgs! Think about it. How many other branches did the same? Plenty because I talked to them. Guess what a lot of those same idiots are still doing the same things. I've got plenty more.

Your right Booneville. I can't imagine having a negative altitude with this almost 4 year cluster f###. What kind of confidence do you expect a employee to have in management, when over the last 18 years, we see a fine company being reduced to the same bad decisions that got us into bankruptcy to begin with. Not to mention to secretive way in which they operate. Your eyes only see what they want you to see. You haven't been here for long enough to know that management only lie when their lips are moving. You don't see the everyday waste on the depots, with pulsing out product that doesn't even see the inside of a store before it is sold as hog feed. This is still going on on a weekly basis. You don't see the planned sale items, that never go on sale because of the miscommunication between the plant and the store involved in the sale items. And the fact that we order to accommodate the sale that never happens, and were stuck with all this bread that we ordered that will never get sold. No wonder I have the altitude I have. It's for valid reason.

I have the same program (including employee contributions that are significantly greater than what IBC is asking you to pay) and I made a point to prove that a $5000 tax break, allotment, or however you want to put it, won't go far.

BOB: Mrs. Cubbison's is an affiliate of IBC in that IBC owns around 80% of the stock of Mrs. Cubbison's. In addition to that, Mr. Cubbison's products are produced wholly by Interstate Brands in Hnederson and Northwood. Mrs. Cubbison's pays IBC a management fee in return for IBC's services to them. Mrs. Cubbison's additionally utilized IBC's cash management system, and the proceeds from Mrs. Cubbison's historically benefitted IBC. Because of the significant potential of IBC's bankruptcy on the ability to continue producing product for Mrs. Cubbison's, it was determined that Mrs. Cubbison's should also fie for BK protection and petition the court to administer Cubbison's case with IBC's. As such, it allowed for protection of Mrs. Cubbison's assets while continuing to insure that IBC would be able to produce Mrs. Cubbison's products.

You guys need to take everything boonville says with a grain of salt. He is a part of mgmt. and he will try to win you over to their way of thinking. You have to remember he is going to slant things their way. I have over thirty years experience with Wonder Bread and I know what i have seen over the years. There is truth to some things he says but it is mainly told through mgmts. eyes. There is another side to it.

The reason that Boonie and his higherups don't want this thing settled is because when it does, "the gravy train" will come to a halt. That's it, in a nutshell.

boon dumb ass (you deserve to be called so), you can fool some but not others. ibc is negotiate with locals? you must be stupid to think I we believe you. How can they negotiate with the locals when they have not reached the master agreement with ibt? If they already reached agreement with ibt therefore they can negotiate with locals regarding the addendums, then why ibc or ibt have not announced they have reached agreement? yes, you are really a dumb ass to think that we believe you. If you want others to stop calling you dumb ass, then don't be one!

Boonville, I will complain with out a doubt when I am asked to do more for less money. If all I did all day is bang on my key board I would not care. I would suck another weeks pay out of the company like you till it came to a end.

INTHEDARK: Let me guess...you are one of those who carped and complained when the old board of directors hired Alvarez. You were oone of those who carped and complained that the old board of directors was corrupt and taking money from the company. You were one of those who complained that Alvarez didn't know what he was doing. You were one of those who said we needed change at the top. Well, you got it. You got a reconstituted Board of Directors. You got change at the top in Craig Jung. You got a change in leadership and direction. And now, since you've found out that the new management team is going in a new direction, that you're not going to be left alone to keep doing things the way you have in the past, that you need to change your mindset and work habits, you don't like it. So you start your carping and complaining again. You want to throw darts at anyone who doesn't see things "your" way. You throw darts at anyone who recognizes and champions change. Why? Because, God forbid, someone expects you to do a little more than you are doing today. Because someone says that you can't keep doing your job the way you have in the past. You're "in the dark" all right, but do you think that maybe, just mabe, it's your own doing because you don't wish to "see the light" that you would rather carp and complain about needed change and throw darts at those who embrace it, because your union has instilled in you a sense of entitlement that brainwashes you into believing that any change is not for the good? Think about it..........

KNOXVILLE: Let's get something straight: yes, I am management, but I am not top-tier as you claim. I do not get stock options, nor is my health care paid for. If you had been paying attention a while back, I stated that I would love to have what IBC is asking the unionized employees for as an employee contribution to my health care. Over the past four years, health care costs for management have gone UP each year, while benefits levels have decreased. As a unionized employee, you have a long way to go before you even begin to get close to what management pays for their healthcare. When your "givebacks" equal 5200 per year like management's do, then you come see me and compare what management is doing as compared to what you are being asked to do. Management buys the same gas, food, utilities, and things that you buy at the same costs. And most of management does not make six figures. Sure, there are high paid people at the top, but there is a reason they are paid that way.

Comment: MONEYPIT: good idea, how will the company FUND that? to many people at the top would lose money, so that is a no go! see the people at the top dont want that because, most of them including Jung would be FIRED!!!!////////////////////// I never said it would be done just how to do it. Even Jung has to answer to someone! Question is how long will that someone continue to fund a sinking ship before deciding to change course? Also the way to Fund the profit sharing is to use the salaries from the 1/2 the overpaid under worked managers we have. Also with them gone we will be able to actually make some meanignful changes that would actually turn this company around! The only thing the bottom half of mismanagers is good for is blowing smoke up each others asses, patting themselves on the back, taking credit for any ideas or improvements the top 1/2 of managers have, getting the other managers/employees to do their work for them (so they can leave work early), kiss the higher up managers asses so they think they are doing a great job regardless of how much money we are losing ( reports be damned!). ////////////////////////Hey boonville i for one appreciate your candor. I dont necessarily agree with all that you have to say but i can see where you are comming from. Will you plz comment in the previous post of mine. I think its worth stating again and i would guees its something that ibc employees and ibc management can get behind its only the 1/2 of ibc mismanagers that would not be for it. One of the main problems as i see it is the vast good old boyz network in IBC, both union and mgmt. that rewards incompetence, laziness and status quo. In the bakerys i have been at 95% of mgmt that works here is the same 95% that got us and continues to get us into this mess. So in all seriousness why cant we throw this dead weight overboard and continue about our buisness of making money? Examples 1) Mismanager A ( who is in good old boyz network) is concerned about Manager b outshing him. Mismanager A does everythting in his power to discredit/dishearten said mismanager B. Manager B works harder puts in extra effort comes in early leaves late and generaly does an outstanding job. Mismanager B leaves early, comes in late takes extra days off and genraly perfoms his job poorly. Mis manager A uses connections in good old boyz network to discredit and dishearten Manager B. Steals credit for work he accomplished and generaly makes life miserable for manager B. Then add to the fact that Manager B has not recieved a raise in 5 years. If you were manager B how would you feel?

hey boys play nice, i mean after Sept.30 Boonville won't have his job, then maybe he will see how rough things are in the real world, no high salary or stock options, health care paid for, you see Boonville, has all that, he could pay some of us from his salary alone, we are not educated enough for IBC that is way no raises or lower health care, only the top dogs have that, remember Boonville looks down on us, he don't know what it means to live from week to week. with gas going up, food going up you can't tell me the company gives a damn about their work force, when they were gonna give out bonuses to the upper level pricks, hey we are people too and have families, but i know the company could care less, maybe that is a reason for you (Boonville) to take this message to JUNG!!! let him know we are people also

DAN: You bring up interesting points about the contracts and their administration. Problem is, IBC got itself into a situation where they had to "negotiate" over things that normally in other businesses were within the domain of "Management Rights" regarding methods of operation and running the business. I have spoken with many operations, distribution, and sales people across the country and asked the same thing: WHY are we doing it this way? I've helped some of them look at the written word and give it clearer meaning in ways that are beneficial to the company. Case in point: one bakery had a set work schedule that was a "normal work week". This schedule listed days off per week for the bakery employees. If management needed to change the schedule, and they had to schedule employees on what was their "normal" day off, they were paying them overtime to work that day. WHY? The contract gave management the right to determine the work week and to change the schedule with as little as 24 hours notice. In addition to that, the contract defined a "normal" work week, but the "needs of the business" meant that a changed scheduel for a week was no longer a "normal" work week. The result? If management changes the schedule, provides proper notice to the employees, and they only work five days, there's no overtime paid on a day they may have been scheduled off on last week. The biggest problem with the contracts is that as IBC purchased other facilities, they never drove the contracts toward a common contract for all the bakeries. As for your comment re: the lawyers, consultants, etc, you're right...but at this stage of IBC's business life, they are a necessary part of doing business.

CC: Not sure why you cme up with the comment, but.....don't get me wrong...the insurance industry IS the major reason for all of the cost problems with health care...along with a litigious society that thinks that everything can be fixed by a trip to the court house. Physicians charge so high in order to protect themselves from potential lawsuits. Don't get me wrong...there is a time a pace for everything. But doctors aren't miracle workers. They are human beings and sometimes the result was meant to be. Not everything that happens is always someone's "fault" as courts have tried to make it.

Boonville as usual appreciate your input and see that you must be in a rush having more typos than usual. The contracts are not the problem; the management and management of them are. The company has a lot of leeway to alter, void, or work within the language of these letters. What ultimately happens is up to the 750 dollar an hour lawyers and 350 dollar an hour consultants. Hmm... I surely don't know where we could come up with money for investment in new software for tracking or other things.

DAN: You're right...our systems are rife with inefficiencies...let's just look at "your" sector: route sales: inefficent manner of tracking sales and inventory (handhelds) inefficinet method of delivering product (route sales don't have enough time to properly serve accounts); poor job of cutting costs (Alvarez chop and dice operation); inefficent delivery cost; it goes on and on. Where do we start? ALL of the issues I brought up are tied to one thing: the Teamster contracts. It is impossible to change and address inefficiencies when those inefficiencies are borne of a specific manner and are limited in Company response ie. the language of the contracts. The Company can't change or address any of the inefficiencies associated with route sles until the Teasters agree to permit the Company to do so (agreement with PTM). There are inefficiencies across the boad: operations, distribution, and sales. You can't fix everything at once. IBC is addressing the inefficiencies in the bakeries, but with limited funding available to do things, it's not nearly as easy as saying "fix it". Craig Jung's plans for fixing IBC and returning it to profitability will work...given time and capital to do it.

BILLINGS: To an extent, you are correct. IBC negotiated with the International Unions on a "master". but what about the local addendums? I can tell you for a fact that while BCT got "raises" in the mster coming in Nov, that each "raise" is a different amount, based on where they are located. So you see, just because the "master" was negotiated at the national level, doesn't mean that the contracts are completely finished as in the local adendums. Meetings have been held with local representatives to finalize the local addendums, which are considered part of the contracts, too. So stop calling people dumb asses before you know what the hell YOU are talking about. You make yourself sound really ignorant.

Boonville I don't know the specific efficiency of the several bakeries that provide us with product but I do see everyday the inefficiency of our system. We continually throw fresh product into the farmers hands; we do not reduce,reuse,recycle; we waste time and money on unprofitablle accounts; and last of all we do not effectively leverage the power of our brands. This companies account executives have become complacent or fearful, either way innefective. There are lots of changes that need to be made and I thought that was what Mr. Jung was about but I seem to be wrong.

boonie, you are more stupid than I thought. Yes ibc has more than 300 contracts but they do not negotiate with each one individually. For example, ibt has almost 200 contracts, but ibc does not negotiate with each 200 contract representatives individually, but instead with ibt international and an agreement with ibt international will serve as agreements with all the 200 contracts. As I said before, no wonder ibc is losing money because they have dumb asses like you working as managers/insiders.

CC: First part of March I was off work for three weeks having some "minor" surgery. Non-work related, meaning, our woonderful benefits package "paid" for it. I have *already* spent a little over 3000 out of my pocket on "medical" expenses. My wife recently had "minor" surgery in April, that was about 1500 out of pocket....I just had to pruchase a "special" shampoo for my daughter for a skin condition: $45.00 WITH our insurance...for four ounces. Now add up how many four ounce bottles of shampoo you can buy in a year....both my wife's and my surgical procedures were "outpatient" which "reduced" the cost somewhat....imagine if they were both in-patient and required even three days hospital stays. 5000 as a tax break, credit, or otherwise isn't going to go very far for anyone...especially someone who doesn't have any health insurance. But, we're turning this into a political discussion now......

The 5000 is a tax credit for people who have to pay for their own health care. It's a good idea but doesn't affect that many people or help if a family member is uninsurable.

You THINK 5000 will cover everything needed? Guess again. I know of cases within IBC (can't divulge specifics, of course) where people currently covered under our health plans would spend that 5000 and even more on prescription meds alone in a year. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the interview you're talking about, but I haven't heard ANY politician suggest something that makes sense as a way to fix health care in this country. Throwing money at people instead of some type of regulation of health care isn't the answer. How many people would acually spend that 5000 on health care given the pices of things today? It would be a case of "I ain't sick today, but I do need gas for my car!"

Yeah, CC...on healthcare alone, on average, about $1400 per month, give or take. IBC has numerous health plans, each having their own set of costs, based on experience. Nationwide, those costs vary. Given the numbero of employees IBC is dealing with, they work on averages rather then exact costs. By the way, do YOU know what your bakery's cost per pound and efficiencies are? They're one of the problems faced by the UMW Market area as a whole.

boonie the bullshit is back again? insider, instead of posting a message from jung that is pretty much nothing new than what every already know, tell us something that we don't know. What you posted in that message is pretty much the same as the company press release more than 2 weeks ago, dumb ass. Even when airlines were in bk, they had more unions to deal with, but reaching agreement with unions require less than a few months time. With ibc, it takes almost 1 year, and they are still in deadlock. Don't you all realize that the reason the company does not even state a date for a hearing is because there will be no agreement between unions and ibc? they are planning to break up the company to sell in parts or in whole and they want to keep this as quiet as possible to keep the employees and to run the business without much disruptions. That;s the reason why they are so quiet. If there are only minor diffferences to be resolved with ripplewood/ibt like boonshit claimed, it should not take more than 3 months or even longer to reach agreement.

National Headquarters May 9, 2008 To All IBC Employees, As you know for several months we have been working to extend the maturity of our DIP financing agreement beyond the June 2, 2008 expiration and increase the amount available for borrowing. I am pleased to share that as of today we have in place a new DIP credit agreement. Under the terms of the new DIP agreement, the maturity has been extended to September 30, 2008 and the amount available for borrowing has been increased from $200 million to $249.7 million. This is positive news because it provides us with sufficient time and liquidity to support normal business operations while we continue to pursue our dual path process of working to achieve a confirmable, standalone plan of reorganization, and at the same time, conduct a parallel process to sell IBC’s business and assets. I know that we have not provided you with much information about our progress recently. Due to the confidentiality agreements we must adhere to during this process, all I can tell you is that we continue to be involved in active discussions with third-parties interested in investing in our company and firms that are interested in buying certain parts of our business. Please know that as progress such as today’s announcement is made, we will share it with you. I appreciate the patience and focus that you have continued to demonstrate throughout these challenging times. Thanks! Craig Jung

HODGKINS: by the way, Teamsters' deal isn't "dead" yet. It is attached to numerous other things, the most important of which is financing agreement with Ripplewood. Once Company closes that issue out, then it will take action on the Teamsters' proposal. There's no use in expending time/energy on the Teamsters' proposal if the prerequisite: Ripplewood financing isn't in place first. Financing involves three-party talks: Ripplewood, Silver Point, IBC. Once those three take care of their business, IBC will move swiftly to take care of unfinished business with Teamsters.

Alvarez is a quick-fix chop and dice organization that believes the most expedient way to save money is by slicing and dicing operations. In some indistries it works, but in others (like ours) it doesn't, especially when almost 50% of your workforce is dedicated to logistics of getting rpoduct to market. When placement of a new board was demanded, entire direction of the company changed. In doing so, it wiped out any perceived progress that was developed by Alvarez. In essence, when new board hired Craig Jung, it actually took us back to step one of the process...identifying what changes needed to be made. Surprising thing about IBC's BK is that they waited so long (well into the second/third years of BK) to address labor cost issues. traditionally, that is one of the first areas addressed, not last.

Booneville could your apprehension to comment on the sale or future of plant 1072 be that you were and are involved in that PC? Your experience in prior BK Operations and direction have been of great value that you have discussed in your office. Do tell. Thanks RS.

Well that explains a lot Boonville. No wonder you have been spreading your B.S. Your no different from any other management with IBC Your just trying to influence other to go YOUR way, so you can keep your job, just a little longer. I maybe wrong, but I believe IBC's bankruptcy is now the longest in U.S. History. What that tells me about YOU and management at IBC is, You indeed do not know what the hell you are doing. I'm sure IBC got a bargain for your services, after all, you get what you pay for.

Rocky Mount: Most DM's have 10-15 routes. If you DM only has 9 & can't split his time between the 2 depots, then he is not doing his job. Maybe you should pay another DM out of your pay if you want one.

hey i thought booneville was done coming on this site. it was quiet now BACK ON AND YACKING AWAY AGAIN. NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE RUMORS. AND AS YOU SAY YOU ARE MANAGEMENT YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE MANAGEMENT MENTALITY. ALTHOUGH I HATE THE TEAMSTER RIPPPLEWOOD PROPOSAL IT BAFFLES ME THAT IBC DID NOT ACCEPT IT AND WE MOVED ON. FOR THE LIFE OF ME I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY THAT PROPOSAL WOULD EVEN BEGIN TO ACCEPT CURRENT WHOLE MANAGEMENT TEAM. THIS COMPANY HAS SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN IT DOES NOT KNOW WHICH END IS UP OR DOWN.ITS A REAL SHAME WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN (THE SLEEPING GIANT) INSTEAD OF LEADING THE BAKING INDUSTRY. ITS A PITY THE ECOMOMY IS IN A RECESSION(SORRY FOLKS ITS A RECESSION). NOW THERE IS NO CLEAR CUT PATH TO MAKE A PROFIT. BUT FOR NOW AS LONG AS THE TEMASTERS PROPOSAL IS NOT IN EFFECT AND I STILL AM KEEPING MY $115 A WEEK(NO CONCESSION) THEN YIPPEEE.

  Comment: Todays lesson in BTK economics for Middle Class Americans! If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself among this group today of working class citizens in America with a job and still struggling to make ends meet, you have my condolence! Middle Class today is better defined as the Working Poor! America's job-base is all but gone at this point in time and home owner ship is a thing of the past. Your earning power has been diluted and you have been futher reduced by your government to the status of a non-essential commodity. Everything that you stood for has now been outsourced to third-world nations! It started with the dumbing down of America and it will culminate soon with the announcement of the crowning of America's next president.

For this event to take place, it would have to be an en masse order! In other words: All or nothing! GET IT or GET OUT!

Wow, Boonville! You pretty much said it all in your 5-8-08 post (2nd to last). You stated your true reasoning behind your posting on this site. You are a supposed expert in dealing with bankruptcy issues, including (if I may) misguiding and influencing employees. Who gives a crap who you are and what you are. Give me your name, I would be able to trust you if you weren't such a coward. What are you afraid of. Oh by the way, HELLO JACK AND BOBBY. I'M BACK!!!!!!! MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW,MEOW,MEOW,MEOW, MEOW, MEOW.... .....Opps, I'm sorry, I was trying to communicate with Boonville.

Boonville, your apparent elation that IBC can now "force" ibt members (your sales force) into whatever concessions they wish may be shortsighted. Wholly disagreeable terms will likely result in the company losing many more of their successful, hard-working sales reps until all you have left are the FLYS and CHESTYS. In my area we have already lost several really good employees some of whom are working for our competitors and really kicking our ass on the market. I know I have been treading water to see how this plays out but most likely will be leaving if the final result is a huge leap backwards. I know I wouldn't even consider a distributorship with this company. Too many prosperous companies with a better offer. Sure the company may have the employees over a barrel now but the attitude imparted to them just might come back to bite them. When you choose to stick to your employees, good luck in getting them to forget and do the extras that this company expects.

KNOXVILLE: No raises are planned in the immediate future. At such time that IBC emerges and moves on a new path, then possibly management may see some type of increase. Increases, however, will not be across the board and will be performance-based. There are new programs waiting to be rolled out regarding pay scales, pay grades, and the like for management, and none of it will be 'automatic".

Has it occurred to any of you yet that the reason the Teamsters International isn't saying anything at this point is that they have nothing to say? That they've already played their hand in submitting a proposal to IBC and bringing Ripplewood into the picture? That they no longer have any say-so and all the negotiating at this point is between the financial backers and IBC? That the Teamsters locked themselves into a position that they won't be able to back out of? Even if IBC doesn't accept the Teamsters' proposal "as written" IBC now has the right to demand concessions of equal value in other areas, and they now have an iron-clad reason to force it on the Teamsters through the court? Having made a proposal that carries a certain dollar value, the Teamsters would not be able to show good cause in court to reject a proposal from the company. The ruling would read much like the ruling on the Biddeford and Wayne contracts did when IBC tossed them if IBC would choose to go that route.

Chesty Puller - What BS. The entire West Coast is mostly Hostess. The only bread market left is San Francisco and the San Juaquine valley where Bimbo and Sara Lee are already kicking IBC's butt. And,No one knows for sure how much Bimbo USA makes because it is all folded into the international company. If you are going to make up rumors, at least make them somewhat believeable. FOOL!!!

The depots are about 60 miles apart.He does live near the other depot .We see him once lie every 2 or 3 weeks. We had a division manager but in sept they combined everthing so now there is on manager to watch 2 depots .But since he only come 2 times a month its like the inmates running the prison.Thats why I was wondering if jung was planning to hire a manager for each depot again or just let the free for all continue .When the division manager was here every day this shit did not go on.I don't want to get into details to much but I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

I hear ya chesty, although from what ive seen from boone , while not playing her hand way out front she will at least give us a day or two notice(which makes her believable). As a long time ibc employee i have plenty of experience with dealing with crooks and liars and generaly take a wait and see attitude believe none of what you hear and only 1/2 of what you see. However it is nice to have that day or two notice to keep our eyes and ears open about things coming down the pike. Oh and then that makes our last contestan TheFly IBT. Which makes me wonder if Anon from Hodgkins might be right as both Fly and Boon have been really quite as of late.

In the dark yes I am IBT but lets get it out. 1 we gave concessions to the last management team they said no more plants would close LIE. 2 the product is shit lets be real try theirs and our see the diffrance. 3 I understand it takes money to change but they went to the judge and asked to recieve their bonus. Now thats a joke you got no money to fix the product, but you got money to pay a group of people who has done nothing but lose money. Then they want us to belive anything this guy says most of his great facts can be found in the court documents. Shes a lair and when it comes out everyone will feel stupid and empty she however will be happy with that gaint bonus what a joke.

Warning...I just heard from a very reliable inside source that the IBT has agreed to concessions. Done deal. The little birdie said that mgmt was absolutely giddy. He didn't know when it would be announced, how it would be announced, or even who (IBC or IBT) would make the announcement. But he said it is a done deal. The IBT has sold you out once again. I'd tell you to look at the IBT website for details but we all know that it hasn't been updated with anything relevant in months and even then it was old news. It's coming boys, hold onto your drawers.

Ok, Boonville i think its obvious you are on the up and up. So you are some concerned citizen just trying to help us poor underprivelaged workers? So you spend your time giving us helpeful information to improve our lives and maybe make yourself feel better about yourself? I have been reading this site from the begining of BK and i seem to remember alot more BS and Big mouths spouting of then.
