Will they keep us updated on the cost so far on fighting organizing? Seems like the voice of the customer is asking for respect and removing the fear of a bad manager or supervisor running them out the door also better benefits.. It's said they're not cost effective but they will spare no expense from keeping them from you.. That would spare so much time and effort to act on the voice but their stance is clearly to fight the voice.. I heard they had pizza at ula today, I hope those drives washed it down with their pride

Nothing like some tasty 5 dollar pizza from the third reich to sway your vote.

HEIL MARK LOGAN!

ULA is one of the worst places to work at. All drivers are liars and lazy in all of their eyes. And their vote had the biggest margin between the three terminals.

Thank you instigator for that momentary pause of bipolar relief.

Money is a motivator everywhere.

This corporation that you worship is responsible only to the shareholders. And the shareholders care about nothing except for the value of the stock. Yes, most of us are shareholders, but we don't own enough to get anybody's attention.

The union that we are asking to help us is not publicly traded nor is it a for-profit venture. The union is its membership and is responsible only to itself. So it is responsible only to its membership.

Based on these three undeniable statements, which entity do you suppose is more likely to have your better interests in mind?

I'm not interested in getting into another pissing contest with you BR......We are too evenly matched on opposite ends of the spectrum....Can be no winner....Only a stand off......How much money do you think it takes to retain top leadership at Conway? Leadership that improves the stock? The bottom line....You can question all you want the decisions they make...But any wrong decision can result in poor stock performance... Which could send this company into bankruptcy......Look at the boneyard in TB and see all the poor decisions made by top brass....Look at the decisions Zollars made at YRC....Look at what that cost the workers.... This company made its money and built an empire union free....And my money is on that they will stay union free.......Despite all the second guessing of the BOD.

Half full or half empty?
I'm grateful to have any, much less half!

No doubt those two loses will be contested just as the win will be. The union has been at this for a while while the corporation has not. Rumor sez there was some corporate shenanigans so perhaps things may not be so sure....maybe. Let's see the count.

What are their sizes? Reship? RM home base?

ULX - class 2
UFV - class 3

Regional manager is out of UOR

I like that. They freely vote and say "NO" to you guys, and that means they lose? They just didn't fall for the BS.

I know that's not gonna stop this teamster train, unfortunately.

You guys have nothing to do but try to recruit new converts to bring in some dough.

That's your mission, your passion, your need.

Your like a radical "religion" that just keeps coming up with new ways to force people into your way of thinking.

First of all; We are NOT evenly matched. You have deception and dishonesty giving you the edge. My downfall is that my agenda and the content of my communications are consistent with each other. You are far better suited to represent our corporation. Do you need me to extrapolate?

Second; Prior to Laredo Texas, no Conway facility had ever petitioned the NLRB for union representation. Now several have successfully gained the right to vote. The corporation is in uncharted waters. It is in that context that I was referring to lack of experience on Conway's part. They are relying, for the most part, on outside help - Just as we seek to.

Go to Vegas and place your bet. I will stay positive and work to get this done, no thanks to you.

i give you 3 likes on that one.... The train derailed when he said he wasn't for or against the union, we now know that's not true....
 
it's not just about the money its about a DAMN PENSION, RESPECT. All these vote no guys need to sit do a do some math and figure how much it takes to retire with any kind of life, I would not suggest that anybody depend on their 401K that's like going to the casino. Just think of this when your doing your math. 8 x your last years income you work ,now don't forget to figure your taxes,medicare ins,medicare supplement ins and your part D for perscriptions, that's just for starters, this is based on 20 yrs into retirement, I'm sure most people will fall far short

They won the attention of the brass, they won more money for your dumb ass , 65 mph if that's what gets you off, the obligation to sit down with lawyers and tell them why they can't afford benefits, you knew they don't get a contract with a yes vote, they won rights... Read up on how revolutions start
 
This is what your precious union can promise you! This is why the Union is so desperate to siphon Conway employees into this sinking ship!

The Central States plan, for example, pays $2.8 billion a year to retirees but takes in only about $700 million from employers. It must rely on investment returns to keep from exhausting its assets, but Thomas C. Nyhan, director of the pension plan, said it would take returns of at least 12 percent a year, every year, to come out even, and that is not realistic. Its modeling suggests it will run out of money in 10 to 15 years — most likely around 2026, if nothing is done.

Ulx needed the other terminals to vote yes very badly. They (line drivers) will now be disrespected by work being taken away in the form of vias passing through here picking and dropping. Just look at a map. Service area can easily be shrunken. We are surrounded by service centers in all directions.

I don't know so I'll ask : Are any of these locations that have voted or will vote located in the Central States Pension Fund region ?
