GI was afraid to ever fire anyone for doing a crappy job. I saw lazy drivers walk past dock workers who were struggling all the time and would never lend a helping hand. And also the primadonnas who absolutley wanted to do nothing like the good ole' pony tailed hippie in LMI that had his cake milk run and thats all that mattered to him. All Estes did was finally take out the trash that needed to be done, including that sorry excuse for a vp ops that we had, and his incompetant son-in-law. We actually have some real managerment now that want us to grow, not use the company to line their pockets. I remember when we got those p.o.s. mack trucks out here about 4 years ago, the ones that caught on fire and broke down. Then we got sterlings....could it be a coincidents that the vp of fleet bought tractors from his buddy at whatever company he was working for and got a kick back on top of them?? The terminal tour that the execs made every year was just a dog and pony show it was a joke. At least when junior comes to a terminal he will walk the dock, talk to employees, and he knows exactly what they do. Our last line of mgmt was afraid to get their ties dirty so they never even went out on a dock.
