I am a driver for another LTL company and I was wondering what your pay and benefits were. Just keeping my options open, a driver that left my company to Watkins a couple weeks ago said they paid good and had good benefits. Thanks for any info provided.
 
IN the past the Insurance was good They were self Insured,I paided 65 a month for me and my 2 kids. 21.00 top pay after about 4yrs with time and a half over 40hr.If it stays the same 2 raises a year until ya get to the top. but one of the raises will be a cost of living raise. normally .35-.55 a hour

i'll stay to see what's gonna happen
I would too, hopefully they don't take too much, I've seen it happen tothe last two company's I've worked for. I appreciate the info, I hope things work themselves out over here.
 
I know they said everything will remain the same from watkins to fedex. But if they structure your pay and benefits like ours(fedex freight) the only difference I have noticed so far is we get ot after 8 instead of after 40

Over at UPSF they want to change from after 8,to after 43. Don't ask me where they got that number.

Who said anything about the union?
By the way, where is "the union" where can I send my "thanks" to them at. Is there a special union place where someone is sitting around waiting on thank you cards?
The string of posts was dealing with someones inquiring about the benefits at FEDEX NATIONAL, not about to whom thanks were owed to. Go to the union board with that crud.

M/C does I don't know about ovnt. I'll ask again they might have taken it away when they took delay.

DO the teams recieve delay pay?


Yes teams get delay and they get breakdown. Bid teams don't get as much delay. The bid teams delay starts only if they are held past there delay time.

Ment to say bid teams get paid delay if held past cut time.

What did the hooks go up to and did you see what the double 48"/triple mileage and hooks are going up to?
 
:cuss: I think delay is up to $21 as for triples or double 48's I don't know. Our manager will not post anything. He will only tell us. Other managers will post the raise amount. A lot of things are TOP SECRET in Dallas.we are treated like mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed &%#
