    I went to an interview with wm.I called to get my poc when I arrived and was told via phone that they(wm) would know who I was there to see and when I arrived just as I figured they asked me who I was supposed to see? Any way one of the main guys told me my resume was pretty impressive and when I actually got into the interview the gentleman told me they weren't actually hiring(go figure)then why do you even have a position listed for gq if I was over qualified then just say so and I'll go find a real shop that knows how to use my expertise.

    I was offered a sales position, and now they are in the process of conducting my background check. I am not worried about the drug test or criminal record stuff, but my credit is kind of non-existent . Can anyone explain their experience with the CARCO background screening? How long did it take? How all-encompassing was it? Has anyone had their offer rescinded from information that was uncovered?

    how is overtime paid, over 8 hours or over 40. Is overtime calculated daily after your 8 hour shift? or is calculated after 40 hours at the end of the week? I guess overtime is time and half? when does double time and half take effect? What Union is Waste managment? One more I'm sorry, Are waste management employees paid for lunch or is your hour lunch not part of your 8 hour day? Thank You.

    Does anyone know if dogs are a big problem on a garbageman's route. I was considering applying for a job but I'm a little afraid of large dogs(pitbulls, rottweilers)

    Every business has it's own style. What is the office environment and culture like at Waste Management? Are people dressed in business casual, jeans and t-shirts, or full-on suits? Do folks get together for Friday happy hours and friendly get-togethers? What is a typical day in the life of an employee at Waste Management?
