Seems they’re letting non-union members go today in many terminals.
Don't touch that drum!!Is the cat food dry or canned, I'm pretty particular you know. I think he was blinded to many things besides my avatar. Yes, Tony might have something for me, pulling a Gateway trailer somewhere I heard?

Was it a written proposal, or just a verbal agreement?I did manage to find it. The letter to Meathead was dated 7/12.
A July 12 letter from Yellow’s (NASDAQ: YELL) CEO to the Teamsters general president said the less-than-truckload carrier was willing to raise total compensation by $11 per hour over a five-year term if the union would acquiesce to its proposed change of operations. Yellow’s efforts to implement those changes, which it says are required for its survival, had been rejected by the union.
Teamsters demand Yellow’s previous $11-per-hour offer
A letter from the Teamsters negotiating committee on Tuesday showed it has been unable to come to terms with less-than-truckload carrier Yellow Corp. The post Teamsters demand Yellow’s previous $11-per-hour offer appeared first on FreightWaves.finance.yahoo.com
It won't stay that way.
You just took out almost 50% of union carriers.
If this goes down.
There will come new nonunion LTL'S which will eat at all. Union and nonunion.
Wages got to high.
Inflation too high.
Dollar devalued?
Taxes will increase.
Almighty Dollar is God here.
Nothing else.
Of course not. I put in enough to maximize my match. Free money. I’ll invest my cash elsewhere. Pensions are the ::, that’s why they’re few & far between.401scam will it equal a pension?
Company bean counters agreed to it. Didn’t they?Yea, the 25 and out pension had nothing to do with it. Guys retiring in their late 40's early 50's, what could go wrong.
Don't bring that set into Scranton, you could upset some people.
Just watch, if Yellow goes whoever is the next cheapest will be drug down over the next few years. Brokers/3pls are a lot of the issue . They latch on to whoever is cheapest, send more and more volume their way, while of course demanding ever cheaper rates and more exceptions for " blessing " the carrier with the volume. No offense to brokers, they're just trying to make a buck but by stepping in between carriers and customers and always trying to increase the slice of pie they get they've become the real parasites.And they were losing money while simultaneously dragging down rates for everybody else. Yellow has been a parasite company for a long time.
unfortunately all collateral. but we will be okay, on to bigger and better things.The true victims. They didn't even have a seat at the table.

Those company’s all have the ability to say no. The only reason that the 3PLs are getting those low rates is because some company is agreeing to the rate. No one is holding a gun to their head.Just watch, if Yellow goes whoever is the next cheapest will be drug down over the next few years. Brokers/3pls are a lot of the issue .

Liar….life....probably won't be on TB much either....
I agree that 3Pl;'s are a big problem. Like borrowing $$$ no one forces anyone to do business.Just watch, if Yellow goes whoever is the next cheapest will be drug down over the next few years.
