Ditto on that NO vote, Our TM keeps telling us ABF has over 2 million in the bank and can still borrow when that is gone. We are far from considering a pay cut etc. And if our current Teamster leadership allows a vote, My faith in this administration will be gone. :Flame-On:

toytrucker you guys have men laid off?? I hope not. If there useing interline for liftgate and relocubes....ifso contact your B.A so laidoff get paid!
Yellow is in fact bringing the whole trucking industries wages down. Please understand this!! We work hard for our hourly rate and most of us have been bearing the terrible cold weather and strain on our backs for years. We make good money I'll be the first to admit it but its not to much. Yellow has started a snowball effect by lowering there rates and lowering their employees wages right along with the rates. It will never work for them and we should never except it at ABF. The economy and our freight levels are already starting to look up. Don't cave in after a few quarters of losses. Don't forget all the quarters that they made millions. Probably for 10 years straight they made a profit every quarter. Taking a look at the pension issue is understandable but thats it. We will be lucky if we get 33% of it anyway. I will entertain a better way to fund our pension but I will vote no on giving one red cent of my hourly wage. NOT ONE RED CENT
