Instead of instituting these so called "merit raises" why not equal the playing field for all drivers. Stop taking benefits that legally they cannot take, pending the union ruling. Do they think they are that invincible and exempt from such rules mandated by the NLRB? This is just another proven reason the drivers need a union, to prevent the "Putin" way of dictating business. It's all going to come out in the end. Drivers will receive their phone expenses back, mandated by the courts retroactive to the ruling date. Only then will they be legally able to take it off the table, providing the union is not seated. They make these rules up as they seem fit for some but not all. Equality is what everyone is looking for, not Russian Dictatorship!!!!!
