Strom coding freight is one reason why are numbers are up for December. Every LTL company uses it. Not saying it is right, its just one of the way to cover up poor service.

DF, Bruce was a Switching Cordinator, 26 year man.........Was a pretty good guy from the little bit of time I was able to work with him.........Yellow Heritage........
 
Andy and Phil both got gone Saturday evening. Eric and Bruce followed Joe. Harlan retired to save a job; with Andy, Phil and Ann gone it is hard to imagine just who he saved.
 
you forgot to include "outlaw", he's gone too, and all in yard control are also gone except Mike W. After this week nobody is left, all are gone in the city as well, Mickey's the only one left. 18 total, and NOT done yet........g

Hey devilfan.......that's another old RDWY practice that has to be changed if we are to take advantage of the cost savings that are now in place.

Everyone here knows that this practice delays freight and costs us customers and leads to more layoffs!! Playing games with customers freight is BS!! :BS:

After YRC almost went down the drain at the end of the year, you would think someone up top would say......."Hmmmm we must not be doing something right"?!? Well this is a prime example of what not to do.

Albert Einstein once said “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. DS.

Letting freight sit over the weekend was never a roadway practice until the last few years.
The weekend was always the busiest time of the week.The satellite terminals were always packed with freight on Monday morning to be delivered.It was said that roadway moved more freight on the weekend than all the other freight companies moved during the week.When YRC stopped moving as much freight as they could on the weekends,they made a big mistake and gave up the edge they had in giving the best service possible.They better get back to the old policy of giving good service,instead of letting the bean counters run the company.This debt swap gave them a great opportunity to make it,let`s hope the use it wisely.Tens of thousands of people depend on this company making it.

They used to run this freight out of our BB to the satellites friday and saturday and even though it was going to sit in the (closed) satellite all weekend they had the audacity to stamp it 'time sensitive'/HOT (at roadway, as of 14 months ago when I was laid off).

*peace* and good luck all
 
Anyone taking the transfers from Charlotte to Atlanta or Harrisburg? I spoke to a couple of guys about it the last COO but don't know if they may have changed their minds. DS.
