Thread regarding Dean Foods Co. layoffs

What a defunct discussion forum

Never seen such a defunct, crepid and inept collection of stiffs in my life. Where are the real, hard hitter topics about this company? Where are the real employees actually worried about losing your jobs?

Let’s hear how you people really feel about working for this dump?

As an hourly employee, of coarse I am concerned about losing my job, but at the same time I don't cry myself to sleep over it. I've had ups and downs in life, and whatever happens, I will just have to carry on with life the best way I know how. I'm not trying to downplay the seriousness of the overall situation, but when it comes down to it, I can't really worry about it too much because whatever happens, happens. Nothing I can personally do about it. And just like my fellow employees, we can stay and sink with the ship as I shall do, or bail out and move onto a different job. There's no wrong or right approach or decision. Everyone has to do what's best for themselves, and I truly wish all my fellow Deans employees a good outcome for you. I can only imagine how much more stressful this is for workers who have familes, homes, and other obligations. Whatever happens just push through, and do the best you can with the hand of cards dealt to you. One way or another, things will be ok.

Would be nice to see more opinions and comments on here. I too enjoy knowing what different views of the company are at different locations.

Think the best advice I can give to anyone, including the OP is: if you feel this (or any other) site has little value to you just move on, the less frustrated you feel the better for your health.

I’ve stumbled upon this site about two years ago, been checking it from time to time ever since, works for me just fine.
I use it as a gauge, not a source of absolute truth. It’s an anon forum, so some whining and exaggerating is kinda normal to expect. It can be annoying to some people, but I just skip through those responses while reading.
On the other hand, you can almost always get a quick response to your questions, I find that very useful. On top of that, you always know when it’s time to buckle up and expect something big to happen, as you can clearly see the buzz by the increased number of views and replies on threads.
Like now, I think that people made more replies in a last couple of days then in a last two months.

As an ex-employee it breaks my heart and I feel bad for all of you good ones, but those snakes and bootlickers have always been there just rats on a sinking ship come out. I tried reporting problems but then came the trumped up charges and after a failed witch hunt I found a better job and moved on. 18yrs of service, never heard from teammates-supposed friends again, been almost 2yrs now, hurt at first, but I have truely been blessed. I pray for you good ones.

What a cheap shot. By the way. The people here at my plant are scared to death of this bankruptcy. No one here even knows if we will have a job next year. This place has become cut throat. People you thought were friends are now ratting each other out to HR to save their own hides.

Maybe they're out looking for jobs instead of posting dumb sh– on the internet.

Also, way blame everyone on here for something you also failed at. Bravo.

What's more de-funk than selling to grocery chains???

Oh, and if you want more information, just "buy my book..."

"God the Almighty Dollar controls you!!!"

Even your "preacher-man" can't get enough of "him..."

SEC and Government docs are as “hard hitting” as it gets. What more you want Matty? Keys to the money vault? Oh wait.....Vault is empty. Management cleaned it dry.
