ha ha thats a funny one. i worked for od in spl 2 years ago and there was alot of freight that was not delivered in a timely manner also i had the dubious honor to do am p/u of freight from angry customers that sat on docks for days on end.i have seen the way pups were loaded to jcy har mrt,and pups coming back to us.damages up the wazoo.so dont ever say that od doesnt cut corners.speaking of cutting corners that rediculous amount for healthcare and no ot until 60 hours is cutting corners on your back.now if you want to work for the k mart of the industry go ahead but please dont sell od as the best thing since sliced bread.
last year at my terminal no union workrs were laid off but 1 supervisor was and 3 clerks. Can't lay off supervisor this year never replaced 1 from last year. Still have to run operation

but you know what, there are others that are actually worse..most of us drivers do NOT pay attention to what the dispatchers say..they need to go anyways..some of us go above and beyond to deliver ALL the freight and do ALL the pickup's... i know for a fact the tm in newburgh already knows what drivers are not doing their part...they can do tires instead...and as far as our "mickey mouse union", im guessing you are a temster..what have they done for you lately?..givebacks of pay..thats a good one ..the teamsters seem to me to love making all these backdoor deals with the companies to keep their fat paychecks coming..i thought they were for the working man instead of corporate... it seems they have lost their way maybe ... our union may not be the best, but hey it's a small voice to help us workers still better than not having one
disturber1,
You took many of my thoughts!! I know of many of my drivers that do go above and beyond and they are the best.....yes we have a couple that are on "the milk train"!!
Sounds like "imovaherenow" is a sour former employee of NEMF!?
Personally I didn't think imovaherenow's comments were even worthy of a response, it seems to me that, like MontanaNY said, he's sour. I've noticed that we get quite a few ex-employees on this board that want to just bash NEMF. Most of the people that I know that left here find that, where they are now, they have the same B.S. or worse with a different name on the door, and gave up their seniority to get it. It almost seems like they are trying to convince themselves that they made the right move, by bashing us. I've left other jobs, and whenever I did I didn't look back. I wished all my ex-coworkers the best and thanked the company for the oppertunity to earn a living. I guess what I'm trying to say here is, what ever company you work for you are no different than I am, and you aren't doing anything different. You are putting food on your table and supporting your family and so am I, so just grow up with the company bashing.

maybe that fat salesman that got laid off is taking all the freight with him, wherever he went or goes
