rumor mill in charlotte called 153guy to tell him you guys were moving to lanc,153 and 135 were dividing breakbulk work again. rumor mill is active at least east coast on this.
 
ABF got the same joke on their board only UPS is buying them. Like oh thank god for UPS
 
I wouldn't doubt anything. Everything that CRY owns is up for auction now. Even the GEM of our network. I think it is going to be a very interesting next few months.

Not a chance of that happening! UPS did not spend over $6 billion to buy out of the Central States Pension fund last year to get back into that &quot;quick-sand&quot;!

They may have issues with Overnight, but they are not done training them to be UPS Freight. There will be a time when the UPS machine with have UPS Freight terminals leaving with one pup and then go to the package facility to get the second pup. Linehaul with the 2 companies will streamline!

No pension for 18 months, crappy health insurance and a 15% pay cut for the life of the contract... They might just entertain the thought at that!!!

Annieo, I couldn't do that even if I wanted to! For late night home consumption I buy the boxed variety with the built in spigot - there's no bottle to put down!! :hysterical:

PS - That way if I drop the stuff there's no broken glass to sweep up!! :biglaugh:
 
Truth Be Told

If I am lying I am dying. I got this from a good source, and like a good news person I will not give up my source. Here it is...UPS is buying YRC, Holland, New Penn, ABF. UPS Freight is buying Fed Ex Freight. Fed Ex Freight is buying Conway. Conway is buying R&L. R&L is buying Estes. When all of the the freight companies have all been bought up and placed under UPS umbrella, Fed Ex Corp will surrender to UPS and there will be one giant huge mule company owned by UPS that will be renamed Fed Up!!! You heard it here first....I think.

Part of the agreement is that UPS has to run some white colored trucks. Like this one!!
 
I worked for YFS for 17 years from 1982 thru 1999. That old UPS buying Yellow has been going around forever. Why would a profitable UPS want to get involved with the open sewer draining money called YRC? I still have freinds in the Revenue Mis-management dept. And what I here is never good collections are slow, revenue is down and the best customers YRC has are bad pay. Always have been and always will be.
