I remember a nice little pep talk before velocity. It was close to the tune of "we are a company that is not growing nor are we getting a piece of the huge pie, If we don't start taking a slice of the NEXT DAY and 2 DAY market we are going to slowly DIE!" this COO is nothing more than a job killer and possible company killer! There is NOT a big market for 3-5 day freight! Let me correct that there is a market for 3-5 day freight, yep there is a market and we can compete with JB Hunt, Schneider, CCC, and Werner because that's who hauls 3-5 day freight TRUCKLOAD CARRIERS!!! Everyone should take a good close look at their freight bills the next month! Con-Way, Estes, Fed-EX, ABF, UPS Freight etc....that's who these customers are going to pick because THEY DO IT ALL 1-5 day freight. On another note 500 miles is 3 day freight I'm assuming? The others I listed will do it in 2 days, so if you were a customer who would you pick? I myself would pick a day faster for the same or cheaper!!!

You would probably have a more secure future at FedEx. Imo.
 
From what we have heard from numerous sources/drivers at 309 this COO in April is the first of two. The second COO coming in July.

Maybe the July COO is a backup plan and we'll get back into the next day business after a 3 month trial period without it?

Somehow this wouldn't surprise me!

You really like pi**ing into the wind don't you. None of us really have any idea exactly what they're going to do until the meetings take place. In the meantime have a cold one and relax.

About as real as it gets!
 
Some of the reasons that retirees do have a dog in this fight . Medical coverage could almost double if YRCW goes out of business . Most funds use a part of the money YRCW pay into for active members to supplement the cost for older retirees . Funds drying up , many of your smaller funds and some big ones have been trying to use the " orphan " word to try and ship members to the government retiree system and thus take these members off there payroll .

And like they never did before? Or experienced any pitfalls or benfit of their decision. Thats all Im's saying.....Your in completly uncharted territory. Carry on.
 
I believe the best words a retiree could have is"hope everything works out for everyone and their families", not use words like "us", acting like this COO is affecting their working conditions or family presently is BS!!
