That’s an outdated business model that worked well.

People with degrees in butterfly preservation have to keep reinventing the business model based on numbers, charts and their uncanny ability to predict tomorrow’s freight levels.

Forgot to mention, my idea=#1 Line driver lmao

If you just run the business, as it should be run, there’d be no need for the smoke & mirror stockholder pleasing games. Estes, R&L, Dayton all still in business.

Dayton is a private family owned company.

Exactly my point. Y’all just do what it is.
Edit: It was compliment. This entire stock market/holders three card monte with #’s and BS is ridiculous.

Those people with "degrees in butterfly preservation" (engineers, etc.) have over decades made UPS Parcel extremely efficient and highly profitable which has allowed them to pay the high wages and benefits they are paying the Teamsters there.

 

[SuperCourse]

Nothing personal GIALLO, I just found the notion that Yellow could meet those lofty demands comical.

 

[Quasi]

Bad faith bargaining is all this is. Divide and conquer. Where’s the formal offer Hawkins? Another Yellow scam. One of many.

 

[Quasi]

Why not let the Yellow Teamsters decide for themselves which path they're willing to take? Seems like someone is afraid to let them have that choice.

Oh wait a minute, I forgot, Yellow is a stain on the trucking industry. Got to be a little dramatic on a Thursday right?

Responsible for killing 80000 Teamster jobs. Yes that’s a stain!

So you’re saying it’s easier to predict tomorrow in parcel then it is freight?

I'm saying exactly what I posted, nothing more, nothing less. If you're having a problem understanding that seek help.

Seriously though, having been at Parcel long ago, I would guess that their package flow is more steady and dependable than freight. I could be wrong.

 

[Quasi]

Yes, they told us that yesterday morning. I think that O’Brien should have put it up for a vote rather than just rejecting it on his own. While I’m glad that we have a union leader who will stand up to the company, I also think that it’s crap that a proposal was made over a week ago and we’re just now hearing about it. I also saw a letter from him to Hawkins stating that, if Yellow would drop the lawsuit, that the IBT would come to the table. Enough with the back room offers and the public pissing contest in the media, if there’s an offer on the table, let the members vote on it.

No there isn’t an offer on the table. It’s a break room offer to divide the workers.

Not speaking for Tri but if your company controls 80% of the market, it's obviously easier to predict business levels based on historical data.
No shippers are panicking because Yellow may not be running on Monday.

 

[spart89]

But did they tell you this??

Not true

 

[TC1]

Not true

It's 100% true. It goes to court today!

Finally! Someone said it!
We called these “side bar deals”.
They’re bargaining in “Bad Faith”! PERIOD!!!

Absolutely. First thing I asked when they said the company wanted to talk to the employees, “is this talking or propaganda “. Turns out to be total propaganda.
Not surprising. Yellow’s dirty tricks as usual.

Easy big guy I was making light. I’m sure their flow is more steady they’re just always swamped. I’m referring to here it’s a daily change of the priority today it’s bill count tomorrow it’s service now it’s pick ups are priority yesterday it was delivery etc etc

And so am I making light. Didn't you see the "poke" I inserted at the end of the first line. All good.
