I have been with Sara Lee 18 yrs. the sale to Bimbo has finalized. What should I expect when the union contract expires in June? Will they negotiate? Anybody own a Bimbo route? What's your experience with it?

I was a breadman for Sara Lee here in Sioux Falls for about 8 years. Last March they did mot renew our contract and made us Independent Operators. If you are a Teamster you should not have to worry too much about it. Teamsters willl back you and shut down Bakeries to protect you. We were in the Bakers local so that is why they sent us that way. I hope you get a new contract

I guess well see soon enough. Contract expires June 3rd. This Hostess crap isn't helping.
