They said we will get back 2.5% of our wages they took in jan 2010 ... I am thinking this will be a trade off for our benefits increasing. They gave us some goals to achieve to get the rest of our percentage points back BUT ... they hold the key to the success not us ... the old carrot on a stick does not seem to help our moral anymore cause they can move the numbers around to suit their desires .. because ...

I knew that if they gave anything back that it would be taken away somewhere else. John Boy should never have mentioned Health Care being the largest problem the U.S. is facing. He started playing Politics with that statement and made himself look worse. (If that's possible)

Also what happened to the $200 mil that we were getting from p&g? I see it this was, that is all profit and since we would get an ICP over $100 mil, they are postpone that we got the money till next year. And then they might say we need to make $400 mil profit before we get and ICP. So, I at this point in time say that we will NEVER see that dang check again.. RIP ICP!!!!:clap:

If you had paid attention to the video, you would have seen the part about P&G being put on hold.

Amen! They hold all the cards and the carrot that will remain out of reach. It wasn't said how much health premiums would go up, but I imagine it will more than eat up the 2.5%. It would have been nice if they would have tried to make things a bit more equitable for the old timers, but I'm not surprised. It doesn't feel too good to be tossed aside after giving the best years of your life.

They told us at the meetings how much the premiums are going up, ask your SCM, he has the #'s.

I, for one, am just simply tired of the bull ::shit::..

I am burned out. John L. made some comment about "collective exhaustion' or something close.

well...ya' think!!!...

There is just too much crap anymore. Too many groin kicks for me to care...(and many others as well!)...

Todays video wasn't as bad as I had expected...basically a wash!

Most of us in the waning years of our chosen careers don't quite see eye to eye with the company...

My manager made mention something to the effect if you are counting on the five or six weeks of vacation lost to benefit your retirement then you aren't ready to retire...thats not the point...its the idea that they failed to deliver on what they promised...

Something that they seem to be good at as of late.

Well after all the ::shit:: i started back in march I had my own private viewing with my tm......its amazing how they can continue to think we are idiots....its gotten to a point where I couldnt care less anymore...even have stayed off of tb because I just am tired of being ticked off all the time...And wondering, mr vito is absolutly right.....a pencil is deadlier than a gun....this so called raise will actually cost me money...not alot...but it will cost me...and thier answer is we didnt make the goal.....if thats the case why give us anything......the cost of insurance is going to double for me..and we all know this is going to happen every year ...how much of the o/r was spent on almost every terminal renting trucks and trailers because conway wants to have all the extras for when yrc goes under.trucks that are just sitting in the yards collecting dust...and then I am told to participate in the program that will give conway access to my bloodwork...well in my opinion anyone who does this is a fool....they will use this against you if youre choleastoral or sugar is high because now u will be a risk...and how do we really kmow that we opertated at 96% and not 94%..lets not forget how honest they were when they stole a years worth of our vacation and personal days.....I dont know about you but i would of felt better if they would of told us we didnt make the goal and end it there...instead of giving me 2.5% and taking it back plus some for insurance payments

Hey Rat he said we were exhausted because of the increased work hours....if they knew anything about a driver especially a linehaul driver thats why we do this...or i do...i want my 60 everyweek...i am "exhausted" from all their bullshit....but i know one thing I am doing this over 20 years and if something happens here I will find a job a lot faster than the "management team".....they cant get a computer to do what I do...at least not yet
