I heard a rumor in Akron (211) today that Winston (671) has already started to pay drivers according to the 10% cut. Is this true? Anybody been thru there lately? DS? What's up?
 
in charleston sc they have posted on the bulletin board that beginning dec 21rst they will reduce our pay by 10%........do they already know the outcome of the vote?...seems to me they do......:chairshot::chairshot:

Well, thats all it is....a rumor. They haven't even counted the ballots yet. this is the type of garbage that should be removed immediately. Use your head before posting please.

No Brian, its not true. It was sombody messing with you.

a call was received by tyson in our union meeting yesterday and it was confirmed....yellow was jumping the gun and as always explaing things their way....any time you earn in 2008 will be paid by the 2008 rate!
If you take vacation before 1/1/2009....it will be paid at 2008 rate.

So, i guess we will have to wait and see how many posts we have here come 1/2/09 when everyone gets their checks....ok?.....kk

i had asked this at our dec 7 meeting as i was reading it from yrc's slant. My ba checked with frieght director and confirmed exactly what kk told us. We had already decided how we were gonna fight it. Maybe i won't have to pull the grevience out of the locker now. Kk's info may have been helping us without him knowing it at the time. We shall see. Thanks kk is this posibly one of those things the ibt never does for the members? I may be eating crow soon, don't think i'm gonna like that.

ditto on the roadway side.there were memo's posted that made the same statements about the cuts being before years end.

I really believe it was because of kk and truckingboards that this came to a head now rather than later!!!!

Hey brian..........no wages earned in 2008 will be cut. If and when the 10% reduction is voted in all wages earned in 2009-2013 will be reduced. Not until then. Hope this helps. DS.
 
The guy that I bought the G W Bridge from asked me how I got all that money so quick. I told him I worked at R. He told me his friend's sister's brother in laws dad worked out of 671 and he was having 10% taken out of his check. I think it is really happening already.

what i wud like to know is yellow going to combine road drivers in cnc yellow & kernersville roadway. will they keep both operating as now or close 1 & combine. tks
 
All disbursement of payroll checks after Jan 1 will be reduced 10% if this thing passes. the way payroll works is that the work that you perform after DEC 21 you get paid in Jan. So in essence you will be working for 10% less after Dec 21 if this thing goes thru

i thought it was all money earned after dec 31, 08. meaning it would be 2 weeks into jan before you would see pay cut..... that was my understanding.
 
2. Wage Reduction. Effective January 1, 2009, the Employer shall reduce by 10% employees’ gross wages or earnings paid.

Its very simple, what you make before January 1, 2009 is yours, no matter when they pay it to you. Some people are held back only one week and some are held back two weeks. It doesn't matter, any money made on or after January 1, 2009 will be at the 10% reduction. Its been posted by several very creditable Truckingboards members, that have proved that they know what is correct and what is incorrect, from the information that they have given in the past. If anyone wants to listen to the guys that keep telling what they think they know, then so be it. For the last time, the 10% reduction to our pay will begin, with money made in 2009, any money made in 2008 is at the full rate of pay.

Of course, this is if the plan is accepted by the membership.

It's very simple. Don't post BS rumors. We have enough BS as it is around here, so we don't need your nonsense added to it.

It was a 671 linehaul guy who told me about this, and that grievance(s) were filed... Apparently he was making up a story. BUT that's why I posted the question. Okay?
 
Brian, its not what you asked but how many times that the same thing has been asked and answered by others. Thats what this site is here for, to exchange information with one another. There was some truth to this rumor/fact a week or so ago but once we found out about it here on Truckingboards, there were enough people spreading the word to there friends and it was stopped before it ever happened. Thats why Truckingboards is the largest and most popular site of its kind anywhere. Don't let anybody make you feel unwelcome here, the pressure of all of this is taking its toll on everybody. Just keep on reading and posting what you know or want to know about and somebody will get you the answer.

There should be a COO coming down by the end of the month concerning CNC and 671 road. Stay tuned! DS.
