You ain't worth my time mr. mailman, most people on here is sympathetic with whats going on, and wishes everyone else the best. We all have families and consider most of us to be family. You don't know the circumstances of what goes on at other terminals, so you really should not judge. We don't really have much turn over in linehaul or city or the teams for that fact. Our newest team members have been running for 5 years, therefore no good runs have come available, if so I think myself or any of the other 12 team members that have been shut down would of already took them. If I was one to speculate by your post I would say it comes down to the fact that you are jealous of what we make, but are not willing to do what it takes to get it. I personnally chose that job so that my wife would not have to work and could stay home to take care of a grandson that is handicapped, his parents being young and just starting out can't afford not to work and be able to provide the health insurance needed for him. Fortunatly my job at R&L enabled me to help!!! Now I will do what ever it takes to continue this whether it is here or somewhere else and I didn't need you to spell it out for me. And I'm sure all the other teams that have ran hard and did their part to bring that freight for you do deliver really appreciates what you have to say.
And just for your info we aren't idiots. I understand the way it works, the Roberts are in business to make money, and will do what it takes to do it so they can provide for their family just as we are. I understand the way one way freight works, I know what it takes to run that truck. I know the economy is bad. But you will never convince me that O/O's will care about the time or condition of the freight like the company drivers do. I know the guys that ran with me took pride in getting the freight there to make service, and if we don't get it there on time then you can't! So again if you'll read my prior post on this and other threads I wish the Roberts well with whatever they do with the company I just needed answers not more questions or to be strung along with false hope of having my team put back together!!
