were they hurt on the job? (from banging head on wall)

couple of dock workers were given full time status again. too many fill-ins ******* up freight.
What terminal is it that gave full time status to dock workers? Is this a linehaul driver story or you personally know this as fact because you talked to the person that got full time back?

Was that comment meant towards me?
this place is a lost cause. it will not get better, or if it does it will not be for another couple of years, and do all of u guys plan to stay here that long to see if it does? the rates are way too low to make a profit, and if anyone has noticed when we went up 6.9% we lost a big portion of business, now remember that most alll ltl companies went up6.9% and they just went on with business as usual. not vitran, customers take a risk with us, our service is way below average, our claims r thru the roof, customers play the " big risk big reward" game with us. and the ones that didnt want to play the "game" after the 6.9% increase went with a ltl company that they knew what they were getting. they play a new game with other ltl companies. it is called " I pay top dollar and there for I get a positive end result" meaning I get my freight on time and in one peice". I for one am waiting for " the phonecall" I am getting off the " vi-carealot" cruise ship and jumping on another....................
I agree so much and cant tell you how much sick and tired I am of this crap of dockworkers (at least the trailers I see coming in) having the attitude of there's an inch between the roof and the freight so lets shove another skid in there, every morning I see trailers come with freight stacked 4, 5 and 6 skids high some of them even have plain as day DO NOT STACK stickers on them until this changes our OS&D is not going to budge. and I know how it feels to be embarrassed to go into customers there are times I wish I didn't have my uniform on and had a generic rental truck.I have a customer on my peddle route, that gives me 15-20 skids a day. going east west north and south. now all of a sudden yrc is getting 95% of what I was getting for the longest time. the main reason why, well u can pick either, 1 damages r thru the roof. 2 in a 2 day lane, well it gets there 3-4 days. it is hard to hold my head up when I walk in the place, at one time we would have a grand ol time shootin the sh&#. but now I get treated like i am invisable. it sucks it really does. but thats life, when you have employees company wide that just dont care about their job, so there for crap gets put on wrong trls crap gets stacked without dunnage, 1000lbs skids on 500lb skids. the crap wil never change until management does something about these clowns that screw crap up.
