30 years on the job, O'Brien could save these guys job today, but he doesn't seem to care.
The headline is wrong, this isn't about his pension, he is pissed that after 30 years of dues no one cares.
Yellow | O'Brien show some compassion to your yellow freight teamsters

After 15 years of give backs, they can't run it right.
Let the members decide that , they made the sacrifices. If they vote to shut it down, than so be it.

Not the way it works.
That is why the once 500,000 strong freight division will be 15,000. Pathetic.
I said that, the headline is wrong. The man has given 30 years of his life, and his own union doesn't care.
yeah .. great Union. Add 30,000 jobs killed to that portfolio.

You don’t lose pension because of closure and central states is not kicking yellow out
Come on guys think about it
Then change it. One man shouldn't control 30000
Why don’t you give the bashing a break for a little while. No one needs it right now.
Who am I bashing? A guy who is supposed to be the representative of the workers!
Ridiculous
It isn't like no one was warned the last 9 months

O'Brien needs to look these people in their faces and explain to them why he doesn't care. He should be in around the clock meetings until this is resolved! He could work something out for us, and we all know it!
You have no freaking idea if that guy is on the phone or in a meeting cutting deal right now !
he didn’t withhold the benefit payments Yellow did ! We do not work without insurance.
Yellow paid the Government 75k last week and said FU to the employees !
If you want to work somewhere where that’s allowed show up Monday and go to work see how much Yellow appreciates you.
How do you know he’s not ?
The last 9 months ? Tell me whats been Positive since Hawkins took the reigns. How much profit ?
Inot to long ago people were on here bitching about how the guy wouldn’t even buy toilet paper.
How do you know he is? Please share. As far as the question to your answer... he posted on the Teamsters FB page that the CEO has been begging for a meeting. Doesn't sound like he is interested in preserving our jobs if someone has to beg to speak to his highness
I have seen the teamster press releases. All I see is O'Brien talking UPS.
Obviously your uninformed... this company wouldn't exist if it wasn't for his efforts to obtain the cares act loan.. but let's just say you're right. He's an idiot... at the end of the day there is still a path he created and the IBT isn't interested exploring it. Why? At this point what is there to lose ? Make the deal, secure the lending, exist... or.. walk away and die... the choice is obvious
