Another update.... Not only did they miss the 3 NHS meets they also missed a JXN that was cancelled along with a Newburg, PA meet that was added on. New totals for CMH are 27 runs cancelled and 7 gains.


We were also told that 1mil pounds/day will be diverted from our docks each day, but yet no one is allowed to dovetail anywhere from here and 4 are aloud to transfer in? WTF!
 
I agree why can't Cmh dovetail in somewhere? Cmh is losing 1/3 of their runs and drivers are going to forced on the xboard. Which means they won't be working. Upper management is proud of themselves because they can say there is no layoffs. Instead they rather starve people out so thy quit. Can't get unployment if u quit so it is a win win for them.
 
Heard the news over here at Dayton Freight Lines and wanted you guys to know we are sorry to hear this. I'd like to extend a welcome to anyone looking for a job out in the midwest due to the changes. We are the fastest growing and most profitable private carrier in the country looking for good drivers. A lot of openings in the city and road. Road drivers here drive instead of doing the hub turns with dock work. Family owned company where people are treated with respect. Right now would be a great time to get in the door with our planned expansions and double digit growth we've been lucky to have over the past few years. Do your homework and talk to your friends about DFL and I think you will find it to be a great place to work. I like going to work and doing my job and not having to answer for every single move I make each day. Check out our website and fill out an application if you are ready to get back to the common sense basics in trucking. Better yet go check out our forum and look at the lack of complaints and comments. When you treat people right they don't need a sounding board.
 
I totally agree. I for one would transfer to DAY. They are slowing turning CMH into a economy only terminal.

hey brys,
did u mean a newburg NY? Becuse I know u meet newburg NY and pocono summit PA. Sorry to have u clarify,but the powers that be still haven"t had the big meeting with us yet! This fourm and talking with our meet drivers is the only info were even getting.
 
Just curious. The company is throwing alot of people to the extra board, to possibly starve them out. so no unemployment right. My question is can you still collect unemployment if you get fired, if so I think I might just have to have some real good mispulls or something of that nature. Cause I'd be damned if I'd walk away without getting any money from this company, just because they dont want to pay unemployment.

Yes but the company can contest it. I don't blame you, I got starved out years ago, its a pretty empty feeling.
 
Does it actually cost the company more in unemployment when they lay people off? Im not sure how it works,but Im sure they pay into the pool all the time.
