Just wanted to say good bye and good luck to all my brothers and sisters. I officially quit Friday and start tonight at AAA Copper for linehaul at their des plaines, il terminal. I wanted to ride it out but being purchased by these guys was it for me. I left CT to come here and can't go back to working for them. I only had 3.5 years here so I'm not losing to much. I'm only 30 so I got plenty of time to work with. I hope it works out for everyone here. I don't want to see any of you get screwed. I'll still be here checking in and keeping up.
 
I wish you the best over there. I hear AAA is doing some go things. That may be your job to retire from if you want.

I send the best to you and yours.
 
Well, another one bites the dust. But 2koolajy, like you said your only 30 and have plenty of time left in you, so good luck. Check in from time to time and you will see you probably made the wisest decision for you and yours.
 
Congrats ! Hopefully within a week I can say the same thing . I'm close to moving on also (I'm almost a 10 yr guy at Vitran)
 
hate to dig up an old thread, but I didn't want to open a new one. Its been 4 weeks since I left and I couldn't be happier. Best decision I have ever made. I'm number 1 on the extra board, I have a brand new 2014 Volvo and I'm getting a ton more miles. I miss all of the people I worked with but I'm happier. I guess the grass was greener on the other side for once. I hope it all works out for everyone, I just didn't want to stick around and find out. If any of you have questions about AAA cooper feel free to message me.
 
Hay Slinky Friday will be my last day just gave them my notice I will miss all of you but its time to move up not down after 20+ years. Wish all of you the very best hope we can all some how have Happy Holidays. Keep er between the ditches everybody.:dance:
 
the time has come for me to add my name to the list of "family" members that are moving on, after 13 + years it's time to go, getting out of LTL all together, This Friday will be the last time I deliver and pickup LTL freight, this is one posting I never thought I'd be making, had really hoped I'd be able to retire from Vitran, but with the purchase of Vitran by CT I have come to realize that my puzzle piece just will not fit into the CT puzzle no matter how you twist and turn it. so to all my Vitran brothers and sisters as the title of the last episode of MASH was called, after 13 years I say Goodbye Farewell and Amen. Good luck to all of you that are choosing to stay and make a go of it, I commend you for your effort, and hope you are successful

Good Luck, Fudgie. I hear that your 6:30 am meeting the TM told you guys that the rest of us in Det will join the CT crew in 2 weeks. Is that true that we will come to the darkside as a group?

Jeepstr, no its not true we were told that it will be next week that the "happy family" comes together, although for the next couple of weeks the vitran drivers may be using both systems, delivering freight in the vitran system off the tablets and I assume picking up freight off the dolphins, glad I won't be around to see that nightmare.
