PS Swift's satire is superb... mine, not so much.

I got it before I finished the first sentence...a rather clumsy, heavy-handed use of sarcasm in my opinion...but I understand where it's coming from having watched the give-and-take between him and the rest of the cast for the past few weeks. The analogy is loose as best anyway, since none of us outsiders are unionized with our fellow Jeff-Co residents...

You know us tanker guys--we laugh at a joke 3 times: once when we hear it, once when it's explained to us, and once when we finally get it.

Slight thread drift here. Sorry.
Anyone domiciled in Anchorage notice something similar. Every year for the first few months they withhold Alaska unemployment tax. It seems when they hit some magic number (about $200) they stop. It's happened consistently for the past 3 years. Not a big deal but along the same line; I don't live there and only "work" there for 1 hour at the beginning of a trip and 1/2 hour at the completion of a trip...a total of 1.5 hours per month.

Folks, if you live outside the state of KY you will not be affected by this tax. UPS payroll is agressively auditing all crewmembers checks to make sure you will not be improperly charged this tax. Again, if your address of record is other than KY, you will not be charged this tax. Payroll has been slammed with calls. Controller Mark Slafkes is the one heading up this program.

B2P,
I'd call payroll. They told me some dude named Mark Slafkes is behind all this...guess he's the comptroller.

Haven't you ever wondered why so many of us commute to work from other states like New Hampshire, Florida, Nevada,and Texas. The taxes in the KY are equal to a house payment. Leave the state. Houses are cheap in Florida now.

...so that avenue is useless of course. If I can't get a definitive answer before D-Day...I'll be happy to put down a half per cent or so of my time worked in JeffCo...they can figure out if I'm short themselves.
