Arrived in KC this AM and the guard got on the radio and asked what door my trailer was going into. He told me to back into that door and chock not drop. Already canceled one am yard bid.
I think this is a grievance for the yard and road driver. I'll back it in, but you can bet your ass i'll drop it too. If i'm putting it to the dock, i'll get paid to do it. Yard has grievance on job classification.Was told that Scott W. put out a message to all TMs to have road drivers passing through due their own drop and hooks, road drivers going to bed (foreign) to back tractor and trailer into a door and do not drop, and for home drivers to put it on the ready line. Memo he sent down to all TMs they were told not to share this with the members. Does not have approval from the Union to do this as this is still on hold. He is trying to get away with what ever he can. One thing to remember is do not refuse to do this but file a grievance for working out of job classification and penalty for this.
Stop this bellyacking you voted for this crap so stop sqawking you all got what you deserved when you voted yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The major mistake in you post forum member is the use of the work YOU . I don't think you had access to my ballot or any other members beside your own. The problem lies with the IBT not making clear the terminolgy they used in their agreement. Holland has no official end of the line or breakbulk terminals or frieght lanes. Therein lies most of the problem and Scott W has taken it upon himself to try and use this to the companys advantage.

Yep, it was voted through so everybody must do anything the co. tells you to do! non-union here we come!
1.Well as far as the spelling goes maybe only having a tenth grade education might have a little to do with the problem.(not going to drag out the Websters for every litte post and this PC dosen't have spell ck.) Still as ignorant as I am I have managed to put two children thru college. 2.For your claim of being pimped by the union. Remember the members are the union.It shows the lack of members being active in their union by what the IBT is getting by with without having their feet held to the fire. Most locals have very poor involvement from members that are lazy and want to sit back and complain. Been doing this since 1973 and see the particapition dwindleing more and more every year. it won't get any better till this current batch of members get off their butt and be active. It may be too late.3. This is a union only board so if I'm correct meant for current union members only.Good luck in whatever you choose to do in the future. I'm now off the soap box.
i dont think he directed any certain individual (no quote with post)
he has a point
