The guy posting comments on the link sure is pissed enough. :17142:
No. It's not me.

Seems to me we are living in a parallel universe. The whole thing is a frickin joke.
And we all know it.
Union. We are not a unionized carrier.
Any union with any balls would go on strike over this.
Wildcat!

No offense buddy ,bud were not in the heavy weight division any more ,maybe fly weight.is about right.We got the moxy ,but most definitely not the muscle.
 
This latest development is an obvious indication of just how financially strapped YRCW is. The IBT is well aware of how many Teamster jobs are in peril, should YRCW fold. And make no mistake, with an O/R hovering around 100, we are in trouble financially. I will not get into a debate about the causes, the bottom line is the IBT is convinced of the dire condition of YRCW. There can be NO OTHER reason for them to so quickly agree to something that is so divisive.
So now the question becomes is this too little, too late? IMHO, I believe it is. Don't forget there will be significant expenses for the conversion to ELDs. That, in and of itself, could sink YRCW.
 
I seem to remember some members of this forum saying that Ernie Soehl was a good pick for the Freight Director's job. Seems like I remember some members saying he "understood" the member's concerns, that he wouldn't be just another "yes man" for Hoffa. Who was that?

From my understanding the ELDs are going to be leased not purchased but leased from the company at a minimum installment plan just like all the white trucks
 
We'll I eo
