Our TM set up a meeting for the Boy scouts of America to take a tour of our terminal at 140 and bailed out a half hour before they were to arrive. I found this very offensive and showed no class on his part. So a teamster stepped up to the plate and gave them a tour and explained how great it is to be part of the teamsters and how working hard can get you places.

Thank GOD a Teamster can show integrity.

An ABF terminal manager with no integrity? A Teamster with more integrity than an ABF TM????? Please, please say it isn't so! :wtflol:

I guess it depends on his reasoning for backing out. What were they.

I've met plenty if teamsters with no integrity.

Maybe we should find out the whole story before passing judgement.

I just like to know the whole story before passing judgment.

Hmm maybe cause I work for ABF. That's why I'm here.
 
Well Stoney,
I am not passing judgment, I am PRAISING a Teamster for stepping up and giving all the kids that day a tour. Do you think that is wrong that a Teamster gets the credit where a TM walked out?
 
Just like (STONEY) said what was the reason behind the TM leaving? Maybe something came up and it couldn't be helped? Before I would pass judgement I would like to know the facts before I throw him under the bus!! Maybe befroe coming on here and posting you should have went to the TM and asked him personally why he bailed out, if the answer wasn't satisfactory in your eyes then have at it. Just my opinion!! :)

But you did pass judgment. And did so with no particulars on why he backed out.

Before I pass judgment, I want more particulars is all. And yes that Teamster did a job, and I'm glad he did so.
 
WOW! All I was trying to do is give credit and everyone is in a defense mode or something. In my view, he set it up and gave them the offer and should have been there less a death in the family.
 
Hey, any way you cut it setting up a meeting and not making it just isn't right. Should always have a contingency plan. Particularly if you are in a responsible position like TM. And doing that doesn't make for a good example for the kids.

I'll give you some specifics, Stoney! He's talking about an ABF TM. Sorry but my experience with these people is not good. I find the man guilty by association!!

See, no specifics. That's a generalization. Why did he back out???? Specifics please.

And why are you so mad?
 
I get cranky whenever I hear someone defending a TM.

Wow, now all TMs are evil now? Zero good ones? By the way, I'm not defending this TM, just asking why I should be pissed bout this TM backing out. Do you know why? Would you feel like a total ::shit::, if it were family issues? Some sort of emergency? Its obvious nobody knows why. But just because he is a TM, he's automatically an *******. Well my brother, I've met plenty of Teamster *******s. Does that mean all Teamsters are *******s? Nope.
Please don't make me put you on that list *******s. Cause right now, you showing your no better than then these TMs you hate for some reason.

Well I feel that a teamster is way more qualified to show a group the operation because all most TM's are worried about are the numbers. How many TM's actually still rotate and work all of their sup shifts like they used to. Haven't seen it in a while. So they are getting more removed from the day to day and what really it takes to get it done.

No specifics? He gave specifics, TM arranged tour and bailed. If you are so worried about defending this guy why don't you track him down and ask him? You could post your findings on here for us. Maybe you could advise him that he is getting ripped on Truckingboards.com and that he should come and clear his impeccable name.
 
TM's always stick together, right Stoney? you must be a dispatcher or a manager, oh by the way, the TM just set up a new tour with the boys and girls club for Saturday. opps were closed on the weekends, Next on his list make a wish foundation!
