WOW i would say I sort of agree withyou until you start wishing hardship on people that have atleast did the time to earn a pension.Why go down that road.The people your talking about put up with same BS you are now when they were just gettin started.Probally even more.So wish you luck just dont mess with people who have already did the time you will maybe be there someday.BE CAREFULL WHAT YOU WISH FOR THE GRASS ISNT ALWAYS GREENER ON THE OTHERSIDE.
Yeah let me know how that reward works out for U.YES BOSS ABF will be just fine so go jump ship and let us know how great it is.PS don't forget to stop at the store and get yourself some nice cherry flavores chap stick for your first day.YEAH the bosses love that
I am amazed at what I read here. The anti union sentiment. If your that unhappy then go. The union is only as stronng as it members. I was laid off for 2 years when we merged with carolina & I never even thought of jumping to a non union carrier. The union gaureentees you to do process! if ABF had their way we'd been cut along time ago. ABF cares about you? are you kidding me when they merged with carolina they knew the contract, they new they were putting their own people out of work & didn't care..they devestated families & never looked back. We deserve the right to have a voice at our jobs, the right to due process, the right for a fair wage & benefits. we had a fed ex driver by us he called himself " the go to guy" whenever fed ex here neede it done the went to him mr go to guy then he had an accident & he was fired ...thanks for being our mr. go to guy. times are tough we need to band together, hold together and fight together. we have been screwed time & time again by big business & we
need the working man to stand tough. everyday you read of business posting record profits & laying off thousands more...of ceo's & cfo's ****** the companies for their own profits...enough of this Kemp gets a raise of 25percent & you think the teamsters are killing ABF?? FACT THE TEAMSTERS SAVED YRC TO DATE ....MANAGEMENT PUT THEM ON THEIR DEATHBED NOT THE TEAMSTERS!! I AM PROUD TO BE A TEAMSTER!! POROUD THAT MY FATHER & GRANDFATHER WERE !! THE WORKING MAN HAS BEEN EXPLOITED ENOUGH!!

Well guys what do you think needs to happen to turn ABF around? Please dont say where just drivers its not our problem. We are all a team management and drivers. We got our asses kicked this year by all the other ltl carriers.
Are u serious?I know for a fact that "brothers" who "earned their right to screw over those with less seniority" are the ones who "bring to the table the less",this being one of the reasons ABF being in deep ::.Choosing the best routes,when to work,how long,and all of that is one of your rights ? How about making 5 ,6 deliveries /hr every day?How about not taking over somebody else's route because have less stops or longer ride?How many time u been layoff for more then 8 months and not working because Union had bend over and taken it from behind from ABF?Like i said tell me what concessions YOU have made for your POOR layoff "brothers".If u ever been through hard time ,YOU,the senior brother should be the one to help your brother first by working "only" 10 hrs a day and let the others earn a living too.But NOT,YOU choose that u deserve everything,sooo guess what?I wish u to work until u drop death at the barn,because i will go to work for a company who rewards work and quality not seniority.
Say what?who dat? Can u share with us your thoughts?Spoken like a jr. man !!!
