The new shirts are just temporary... Somebody goofed when they ordered them with out pockets...Have anybody heard about the new uniform.when they come out .
Haven't heard anything about new uniforms.What do they look like?
good point bullwagon. i agree, this company doesn't care anything about safety at all. at our yard in scranton, we have a hole in the blacktop that is huge. myself, along with others mentioned many times to management how unsafe it is (twist or break an ankle, tip a pup over, etc.) but nobody cares. i know i'll be calling a lawyer if something happens to me.they are horrible, they are very hot in the summer (because they are black) and very cold when a regular shirt would be fine, not very durable, and you look like a yuppie. and on top of it all it is not the smartest thing to have us wearing these black shirts when we are chaining up on the side of the road in the middle of the night dodging trucks and cars, if they weren't so damn cheap and buy us a reflective vest to wear, then it would not be so bad. but they put cost in front of safety.
I Agree i called last week and spoke to Karen about a problem i had and the exact response i got was "The Terminal Manager can do what ever he wants as long as HE Thinks it in the best interest of the Company" So basically don't waste your Breath it'll get you nowherecalling HR....waste of time!!

A quick search of "reflective safety vest" brings up a ansi approved vest for $9.99.
so i am going to guess and say that you are suggesting that i buy my own??? not sure, but if you are i have some questions, isn't it the employers responsibility to provide a safe working environment??? i do take my own steps to look out for my self but when we let our employers cheap out on little stuff like this what is next? and where do we draw the line? i know in times like this we need to help the company save money, and i do try, but when they start making money hand over fist again do you think they will remember that we helped? do you think they will give us a raise to say thank you? i am going to say NO!
now back to the topic, i am just saying they should have put a little more thought into safety issues than they did

This might not be a bad idea for those of us who have to unload things in the street due to having to large of a trailer to get into ANYWHERE.
