We at ABF know everything. And what we don’t know, we just make it up.
After all, we are spinsters and rumor mill specialists first and foremost.
The driving thing is just our part time gig!!!

I knew about the rumor mill specialist part but I never knew you were a bunch of older, unmarried women also. I'll try to be more gentle responding to you from now on. :hysterical: :hilarious:

I should have said that we “ACT” like a bunch of older, unmarried women.
Although we do have some “spinsters” throughout the system.
They too are well trained on starting rumors, lies, and half-truths.
It is part of ABF’s extensive training program.

Wpx Az old rules that led to the union push 7yrs ago. Seat belts at all times while in the seat. Labor telling labor how to comply. Mgmt will hold meetings on the proper use of the seat belt.Team, it has come to my attention that clarification needed to be discussed when it comes to wearing a seatbelt at all times when using company equipment. A seatbelt needs to be worn. the seatbelt needs to be worn correctly over your lap and across your left shoulder as the manufacturer intended it to be used equipment such as forklifts only have seatbelts that fasten across the lap at whitch point only only that portion is Specifically in tractors it should have the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Have the lap belt snugly across your hips and pelvic bone the belt should be to your body with with no twist,turns, folds or slack You should not alter or maniplate the way it is intended to be used. Basically sit in the chair and fastenen, while this may seem like common knowledge. it may not be allways be common knowledge. I will have a diagram as a visual in this months road meeting. Thanks WPX MGMT

Lmao that sounds like some ::shit:: Barney Fife would rattle off
 
I am actually a big fan of unions. They go great on hotdogs, burgers, and pizza. My wife doesn't really care for them, though.
 
Good for FedEx if their guys can pull it off. With FedEx’s money and power I dont see it happening though

Bruce Chan of Stifel Financial/ Global Logistics was quoted saying “with the new aggressive leadership of the Teamsters i see FedEx & Amazon as two high priority targets of O’Brien and the Teamsters now”.

I think the timing of this was interesting with what happened this week with YRC, not to mention them flexing their muscles with what they accomplished with UPS, ABF, and TForce. I do talk to and listen to a lot of guys around this place and i know people are unhappy with the direction of FDXF with closing of terminals, them not going after freight while guys are sitting home, the rise of PT, the healthcare, just to name a few. These topics have always been concerns of ours for years around here i know, but now we’re seeing the mergers of operating divisions here now and people worried about contractors taking their linehaul runs too now. Basically just a lot of very low moral is the point. So my question is could this be a perfect storm where FedEx having another push but more aggressive be a reality? I’m not advocating for a union or not whatsoever, nor do i care what your opinions are on the unions, we all have our own thoughts on them and i respect ALL the opinions of all of you guys. But after hearing the interview with that guy on FW it just got me thinking that maybe we are a ripe target for them considering everything going on.

I'd say the odds just got better for the unions, crap raise and paying more for crap insurance.
