I need to know should i take a chance with nemf or go back to con-way, or wait for a transfer with fed ex freight
ok now answer this how do they treat there office workers???????I'll finalize the motion! AVOID NEMF at all costs. I've wasted 8 years of my life on the road for these guys and have seen the working conditions spiral exponentially downward over that time.
Equipment: Terrible
Morale: Obviously bad
Pay: I make 45cpm running the Northeast. OTR guys make 54cpm.... (Heartland)
Dispatch: Can you say forced? Hey Ernie, my contacts are great! They run mostly "open" runs - meaning that you are not told if you will return home or not - prob. not
Maintenace: Performed by vendors while you sit along the road. (making $10/ hour)
I could continue but I have to update my profile on careerbuilder. :)
If you have a poor driving record and can't get hired at a reputable company you can always get a job here! Warm bodies welcome!
In Harrisburg PA USF Holland is growing fast. Need city and road drivers bad. If you would like seinorty fast come over here. Just remember tell every thing on app. Road drivers take a little longer to get on. You will be out 5 to 6 days. The bad news is you only start out at 75% but you will make money.nemf chews em up and spits edm out
Hey Bud. If you're so unhappy here, why do you stay? You are not helping to fix any problems by venting your presonal frustrations this way. I heard one of the other guys in Pittsburgh left for Heartland and he's reported that the job is going very well to start. If you think the grass may be greener there, go for it dude. If you're gonna
tough-it-out here, figure out some way to fix
what's wrong. This isn't the way.

There will NEVER be a pension there, EVER!!G Anis,
Here is the Wikipedia definition of a forum:
An Internet forum is a web application for holding discussions and posting user generated content.
By continually posting your pro-company propoganda you are becoming a:
Trolls
Main article: Troll (Internet)
A troll is a user that repeatedly and intentionally breaches netiquette, often intentionally posting derogatory or otherwise inflammatory messages about sensitive topics in an established online community to bait users into responding. They may also plant images and data on networks that others may find disturbing in order to cause confrontation, such as links to goatse.cx. While not related to hacking trolling could be interpreted as banned by the American Computer Misuse act of 1990, where the intent of such mischief is to cause chaos is spread.
Also from wikipedia.com
Seriously though, "dude", can your job be so great that the problems that seem so obvious to the rest of us evade you completely?
What happened to the Machinists Union Pension push?
What happened to the split contracts?
Oh, while I'm at it thanks for the great routing book!
The only way to fix linehaul is to get paid by the hour, the same as p&d rate from the start time (with time and a half after 8). Upon being laid out we should receive $1.00/ hour extra beginning 12 hours from going off duty. If forced out for additional days, $1.00/ hour extra should be given for each hour worked. Want me to work the Dock? Fine. Hook pups? Fine. Break down? Fine. Slow down? great!
Then the company, who you are so fond of, can also enforce ETA because the nappers would be guilty of theft of company time.
Of course I know that this won't fly, because of the Thruway Doubles.
But at least be willing to discuss the real situation at NEMF instead of trying to use this site as a recruiting tool.
