Actually it is more like 10% when you consider the raise we didn't get on top of the cut.
look at all the we lost over 6 years
Just think how much you might have lost if the MOU was rejected and they defaulted on the notes and were forced into Ch 11. Two sides to every story, right?
Look at all the money YRC hemorrhaged over the last six years?.....and even before that..... The fact that they are still operating and you still have a decent paying job is a miracle when compared to other Companies that have experienced even lesser troubles and didn't survive..... So stop and think a little before you start complaining about what you "lost"..... think of what you still have compared to if they went under....as so many short sighted people on here were hoping for....
I'm going to throw in my 2cents. The CFO said something to an analyst/reporter. Maybe he wishes he didn't phrase it the way he did, then again maybe not. It doesn't matter, we had a vote, it came back in the affirmative, the MOU stands as is until 2019. As Brother Triplex and other deep thinkers constantly point out, shutting down the Company and loosing Seniority, Health Care, Vacation Weeks etc, would be cutting your nose because you're mad at you're face.The "snap back" language is there just in case Somebody buys Us, there isn't any way we are going to get vacation weeks, 15% pay or full Pension Contributions back while servicing a 1.3 Billion $$ debt.
Stop letting outside agitators get you all worked up. Some posters on this forum only come here to stir the "pot", to them I would say... what goes around sometimes comes around.

The venom and bile created by the exhorbitant bonuses will continue to manifest itself.
Only in people who seem to have an unnatural affinity for venom and bile.
Some people seem to thrive on venom and bile......
So much so, that they try and serve it up to all the rest of us....whether we like it or not...

What's the 20 on the pot stirrers?
Now that's funny right there. Never seen that dancing smilie used before.That was worth a lot more than 2 cents.... !

Sugarfoot, I'm glad you opined on this subject. And I tend to agree that Jamie Pierson is less than tactful. Maybe we should pool our money and purchase a copy of Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" for him! It appears he is in dire need.Priceless!
The sad fact is there are a few here who epitomize the adage, "misery loves company". I choose to try and accept those things which I cannot change. I learned long ago that I, and I alone, am responsible for my happiness.
I've tried to entertain, amuse, and inform. Not always to great success.
It's the attempt that counts. Too many don't even try.
Guess I better start trying then....

I think you're doing fine just being yourself.
That's a good idea. Maybe a snooze and some rest will help clear your head of any left over negative thoughts.
If they would'nt have paid out all them BONUSES , after we agree to the -15% forever , maybe there would be less HATE?? and when will they ever make attempt to pay down the $1.3 billion debt ??? or they going just keep it there till 2019 to keep us under control ?? and yes all them givebacks are gone forever , so it is what it is !! thanks for your 2 cents -15% would be 1 3/4 cents !!!
