I thought they lost more like 60%, not "almost 50%".

Tuesday 3/23 - 43,009. 730 bills better than the previous Tuesday. And about 1000 bills better than our Tuesday average over the past 8 weeks.

End of the month and quarter coming, They should be higher, Right?

Alot can be miscounted with the (State of the Art) Roadway computers that YRC continues to use. Higher technology/new computer systems would be the fastest way for YRC to grow and get back on it's feet of a profitable company. [/quote] They don't need to re-invent the wheel. I don't care what kind of computers they use. It's real simple.....When the customers call, go pick up their freight before their close time. Then deliver it at the other end before their close time. It's that simple. It had been done effectively for many years before this new technology came along. The computers that the company use are only as good as the "bad attitudes" that are pushing the keys. The slowest computers in the world would work just fine, with the right people pressing the keys.

With all the customers lost since the merger, it's a wonder YRC is still around.

KK,
Does this change in numbers also change the number of bills needed to break even? Or is the break even still at 45,000

Amazing, that after the YRC COO hearings was over on 3/25, that they had the highest bill count for the year in one day of 44,265...and then it went higher on 3/26 (44,536) to post the highest weekly average in over 6 month of 43,338.

Do you think they were shaving? Also, I wonder what benefit they get from laying off to below their freight levels. Seems to me that the most important thing they can do right now is to improve capacity (with quality freight).
There is this business school concept called Diminishing Returns that basically says that you keep employing workers in order to gain the production of each additional worker UNTIL you put that one additional person to work for whom the costs of using him is more than the benefit you get from his labor. This is easier to picture if you think of a factory floor where , if you hire one more person, people start getting in each others way. In trucking the point of diminishing returns would be met if you used more people than there were bills to justify them. But the trick is to get as close to the point where returns are diminished without going over.
They seem more worried about the tipping point than they should be. We are seeing guys post about them sitting loads and not doing strippers. Now is not the time to worry about Diminishing Returns. Now is the time to gain quality market share. They should let TMs use as many as they need to get the job done. TMs are the ones that are closest to the work. the TM should be held responsible for getting it all done. There is no "one size fits all" on total people used on a national basis vs. number of bills on a national basis.

I will not be able to provide the daily bill count numbers any longer. Last day at YRC was today. You should be able to go to any SOM or operations coordinator and get the info. It is in Vital Signs and is posted there every day.
Good luck to those of you still working at YRC! Even noodle!
