On Monday, November 1 the Teamsters Union received copies of a grievance and a lawsuit filed by ABF Freight Systems, Inc. (ABF) in federal court in Arkansas against the Teamsters and other parties, alleging that the agreements the union entered into and that its members ratified with YRC Worldwide, Inc. violate the National Master Freight Agreement (NMFA).

“After initial review of the ABF lawsuit and grievance, the Teamsters Union finds each of them to be frivolous and without merit,” said Brad Raymond, Teamsters Union General Counsel. “The Teamsters will vigorously defend against the lawsuit and grievance and will withhold further comment until we have thoroughly reviewed the documents.”

i suport them 2, I work for yrc and voted no, I swear the election is fixed, I have 23 years in and I hope they make them give abf the damage they both teamsters and yrc have done. Hoffa should be indicted and thrown in jail for his crimes
 
i remember ABF wanting to negotiate on their own and the IBT said take what YRC got. Now ABF is just trying to get what was forced down their throat.{What YRC gets}

I would have been shocked if JP had made any other claim than that. Let me guess, hmmmmm motion to dismiss is in the works?
 
This is what they call the sh#t hitting the fan!!!!! WOW what balls ABF has. I can't blame them. I will have to support there descision. Regardless we were screwed any way you look at it.
 
I have to back ABF on this, if given the chance to vote, I would have voted NO all three times. None of the concessions have addressed the underlying problems. Mismanagement and a management team without a clue as to how to run a freight company. Wait.... that wasnt true.....They know how to run a freight company and companies into the ground.

hey capn. whatsup, if you look at the letter kemp put up they want it knull and viod ,dont know what that means for us if anything at all ,give me a call just got in c ya
 
Let's think about this. YRCW is in trouble, ask teamsters for help, People voted to help.
ABF thinks they need help, ask teamsters, they said OK,but vote came out, not to help
Where is the teamsters union wrong. ( I know, I know), But both companies were treated equal by the Union. I do not see a legal problem here. Now if ABF had never recieved the right to a vote, than maybe. This brings up a whole new game. Maybe ABF will get to vote on it again, something like vote till you get it right. I am really confused. This kind of give back and voting has gone on for thirty years. I don't see ABF getting money, but I do see them wanting another vote. God help us all.
 
How can the IBT extend the contract on one carrier that other carriers signed. Lets face it, Hoffa runs the union like Oboma runs this country. Go ABF I support you.
Maybe Hoffa can learn something, that he can't chew gum and run a union at the same time.
 
Go troll someplace else, we don't need your :::shit::: here..


OK, lets agree you keep your abf dogs off the yrc bioard and we wont come over here. When your pms-ing CEO decides she made a real big mistake trying to sue for concessions because you imbeciles shot down the vote for them itll b too late-all your freight is gonna be in our lots, creamcake.
