BI-WEEKLY PAYROLL & INSURANCE
There were some objections to making
our payroll bi~weekly. The management has
decided, therefore, to continue with a
weekly payroll.
The interest shown in insurance was
sufficient for us to make further inves
tigation. The insurance companies we have
contacted so far in regard to life insur
ance and sick benefits do not accept a
group policy unless the number of partici
pating employees is fifty or more. It may
be necessary for us to wait until our
employees reach that number.
The hospital insurance is available to
all employees. The agent for this policy
will be with us on Tuesday, October 2nd,
at 4:30 P.k,, to complete all applications.
Before this date Mr. Ponish will contact
all employees and go into the matter in
detail.
POETIC TALENT
Our neighbors are poets and wo did not
know it.
Eastern Air Lines entrusted us with the
repair of one set of their passenger
steps. In order to do a good job it took
some time for surfacing and repainting the
steps. It happens at times that there are
two Eastern Air Lines planes on the field,
when the night crew is on duty. One can
readily see that with only one set of
steps the crow would be busier than a one-
armed paperhanger trying to unload and
load passengers, Mr. Frank Stulgaitis re
ceived the following note from his night
crcw;
Chronic Gripes
"To work two planes on the ground at the
same time,
Is difficult, but that we don’t mind.
But to complete this task we’ve got to
admit,
By doing it with one loading step,
Vfc'll hustle a bit.
So to keep us from hurrying about so
snappy.
Just give us our steps back and we'll
be happy*
Mid Nite Crew"
Not to be outdone, Mr, Stulgaitis
posted this reply:
The Iron Fist in the Velvet Glove
"To hear the lament of the youthful male.
One would imagine too much travail,
But the 'Chief smells coercion.
From the souls of these urchins.
So to them he says in a daze.
Your troubles will be over one of these
