Well, Thank YouWell eh! Your on a yrc forum,and you don't work for Reimer,I happen to work here and my options are expressed as a employee ,and union member.You are welcome to chime in ,like everyone else ,but be respectful as we do not necessary like our concessions,but some times you sacrafice the few to save the many,like I said,our problems our ours were not trying to convince you of anything.,Oh and what ,No playoff hockey north of the border this year,Too bad.Keep on Trucking!
Well in the land up north that leaves CFL or Curling. Which is it?
Did any forget the beer ,Curling athletes need their nutrition.Those rocks are heavy.
You are right Al. I left YRC for ups sleepers, I don't love sleepers- but a start time on Monday night finishing in Friday morning makes me and my family happy. Something I wasn't over at YRC, in fact my wife told me to find another job, that my bad attitude was messing up everyone in our household
1 more thing. Maybe the hog board for an extra board could be a reason people won't stay over there , who wants to work 2 days a week at best?
Bob, Big R was a wheel extra board. Until the merger, that was a big reason I went to Roadway.
We do have more than that, but I usually pay more attention to racing. It's a lot easier to watch NASCAR with your eyes closed than an NHL game!
Are you and Wong going curling with J & J now? I bet you two would be better at it with your professional freight moving skills!
True , and that's because my partner & me started at 100% FULL PAY , none this silly -15% crap , it' makes a difference when you get 100% of your wage !!They're recruiting CRST drivers who only work there on weekends.
Driving for non yrc company, my truck broke down in bismarck nd. Coworker couldn't believe i was swimming at hotel pool in february. Can you say come prepared.Speaking of terminal dormitories, when I first ran for Maislin we bottom guys were last out of course. We ran the "triangle", East Rutherford to Buffalo to bed then Buffalo to Montreal to bed then home. Senior men running to Montreal from Buffalo filled the terminal dormitory and when we bottom guys got there we were sent to the motel. Summer of `74 at the motel we had a pool and a nice restaurant right there. We brought swim trunks, swam in the pool, had a nice dinner, and had a great layover. One day one of the senior guys ran late with us. At Montreal he had never been to the motel, always staying at the dorm. When we got to the motel and we went swimming and then had a nice dinner his jaw dropped. He couldn't believe we bottom guys were having such a good time while the senior guys were in the dorm in the terminal basement. He even jumped into the pool in his briefs. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be a dasher!
Chicago heights operates a hog board for the extra board. That translates into the new guy getting 2 days of work at best, while senior men keep coming and going ahead of him. Everyone says they are for the new guy, but no one wants a wheel board. oh well
