Mr Welch:
I work at Holland and am a Linehaul driver. Things here have become sickening. I have watched what appears to be implementation of YRC policies and systems to the great detriment of this company. It has only continued to worsen since you have returned. It has not improved. In my worst nightmares, I would never imagined moral at Holland to be so bad. Which is probably why you have "absenteeism problems. The one thing I could never understand is how a company would buy a competitor that was outperforming them in every way and change the purchased company and not implement the successful policies of the company they bought, in hopes of making themselves better. It has not been so with YRC. I daily watch management personnel implementing the latest changes to a company that has been for decades the #1 regional carrier. This only ruins the confidence of the employees who have been doing this job for years, to the direct success of Holland. In the Linehaul division, we watch the company waste tens of thousands of dollars(probably hundreds of thousands) on disciplinary letters for minor offenses, most of which are just honest mistakes. In my terminal, we seem to go through supervisors like water, at least 8 in the last 2 years. Which means a new set of ideas and ways of doing things with every new supervisor. I can't even begin to understand the great frustration of the local cartage guys. I've listened to the video, read the press releases, looked at the pretty charts. You are at the table, in the news, in my mailbox, begging for more, longer concession. ( increased flexibility and rules changes are concessions.) I fully understand that we are part of YRC Worldwide. But please tell me what YRC is going to do specifically, what new business model are you going to implement, that would give me any, even the smallest, hope that you could succeed, when all I have seen is failure since you purchased us. Please don't cry to me about what the last administration did (which you were part of). Please layout in detail what you are going to do differently? How are you going to improve moral? Which would end your "absenteeism problem". So far you have shown me no reason to vote for ongoing concessions. You have only shown me the blame game and fear tactics. PLEASE show me something worth listening to. Please show me actual proof, statements from lenders that they will ACTUALLY loan YRC money or change the terms of its current debt. Because right now, what you have show us only gives me reason to vehemently encourage every YRC driver to vote NO!
I welcome your response
