My boy and I had a long talk this week-end. It took some doing, but I think I have convinced him that there are a couple of bad guys out there targeting Pepsi drivers, but, in general, people are not all inherently bad.

The beer delivery companies put two people on each route, just to prevent things like this.

Ben is going to a distributor-wide meeting tomorrow, and, since there have been two similar incidents in three weeks, he and others are going to insist that the company do something about the situation.

The next incident could be worse.

On top of the possibility of getting hurt during the robbery. 5 or 6 out of about 30 of the drivers are out at any one time with back and other problems due to the nature of the job and the continuous pressure for more production.

Really not a good place to work.
