That is what I call confirmation.....
How many doors has it got ? Is it on a big lot ?
I believe the Sumner location has close to 90 doors and on a giant lot. It's a very modern facility since it was built in 06.
Both SEA & TAC are lease properties. SEA is 29 doors while Tac must be around 16, both have grown capacity. Rumor around these parts is SEA will stay and TAC is going to Sumner.
OD drivers have been reported being flipped the bird from the bought out company. I guess some of the guys are pretty bent out of shape about the purchase and are saying OD is doing them wrong after talking to one of their driver's tonight. Personally, I think this could be the best thing for the Priority guys as long as if their backgrounds are cleared to work for us. Priority lacked in pay/benies.

NEW CORPORATE OFFICES AND SUMER, WA SERVICE CENTER TO OPEN IN FALL 2005!
Our Corporate Office and Seattle Service Center will relocate to Sumner, Washington (South Seattle Suburb) in Fall 2005. Our new facility will be home to our employees based in our current Seattle service center as well as our new corporate office. The new cross dock facility will be built on a 7.5 acre site and will contain approximately 50,000 sq. ft. of dock and office space that will include 50 loading positions. This expansion is necessary to facilitate our expanding markets in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California as well as enhance our overnight regional services.

Yeah the WSKT drivers did not like losing their seniority. The ones that got on with OD are mostly a good bunch of drivers and seem happy now. They thought that OD was going to do them wrong but are part of the the collective now. AUGGH
Can hardly tell that they were WSKT drivers now. They drive one of the few WSKT tractors that are still around every chance they get we just let them they will all be in a green and white soon enough. They cant get fired they would have to quit to get out. The Corporate will eventually turn them we do not even have to try.
