He just wants to send a signal that if you try to get it out of us, you won't have a good time. It won't be worth it. |
I don't think a bottle line supervisor at any winery anywhere should be a salaried employee, and this should send some ripples though the industry. |
In the next phase we'll be asking for fines against Bronco, 75 percent of which will go to the state and 25 percent will go to the plaintiffs. |
My own opinion is most bottling line supervisors cannot be paid a salary. My opinion is whether (production supervisors) are doing a lot of manual labor or a little manual labor these people need to be paid as hourly employees, they do not make managerial decisions. |
They had no ability to make those decisions whatsoever. They were just following orders. |
When (Bronco) did show records, they were partial records. In my mind there were questions of whether they were completely forthcoming in turning over the documents. |
You're a manager if you spend most of your time making independent decisions and using your own discretion free from anybody else's direction. |
