This is true Ump but if i feel members are at the point of name calling then it is my job to give everyone fair notice before hand. I DO NOT like to ban people and i am very lenient except for blatant rule violations. I normally even change post and send people a private message to warn not to do again. Maybe you would feel better if instead of trying to keep people from being banned i should just start being real strict and ban people for every little violation.I might get banned again, so here it goes...
If you don't want to discuss this then don't read the thread. And if it wasn't to be debated then why post it in the first place?
I think the more we discuss things the better understanding you get. We all have different thoughts and views on things. This board is here to talk about things that effect our jobs and lives. If it was an information board then fine. but the best chance for change comes from us.. not OD. They make changes because of push back, not out of the kindness of their hearts. If we talk, they listen.
Just my opinion and I tried to play nice,
Ump
I'm cool with stopping the name calling. But that's not what your post said. You said move on from the topic, and to me it sounds like you don't want this discussed. Ken and song both post good things and deserve the benefit of the doubt. Maybe a pm to them to keep it civil would have been a better option in this case. But neither post was that egregious, just two men with opposite opinions on an important subject.This is true Ump but if i feel members are at the point of name calling then it is my job to give everyone fair notice before hand.

We good.I get tired of people posting stuff like this&leave.They only do this to stir the pot&see the reaction that get's start'd.First of all this lawsuit was in California.Also,if you have got your new driver's handbook.There is a section that mention's the California labor law.Something about meal break's.I just get tired of beating the old stick over this.Again it's all good.We get paid good money&we all know that clock guy's do not get OT.But,we are all free to leave&go to work for someone who pay's OT.Just my 2 cent.I'm cool with stopping the name calling.

that's good Song but you know this topic can get very very HOT to someBegging your pardon bird, but I do my dead level best not to call people names. Even when things get uncivil. I will defend myself but I don't stoop to name-calling.

It is funny how things work. What they need to do is trim that road driver's pay a little and give it to the city drivers at all the companies.What so funny is the ones who want to discuss dont even punch a clock.

That's not funny!!!
Now I hope your joking. But if your not, a $12,000 pay cut hurts. I don't make that much anyway but I do earn every dollar I make. And you have that opportunity as well. I'd never ask for anyone in this industry to take a pay cut. When you see a rig rolled over every night on the road you travel you'd feel the same. You don't need to rob Peter to pay Paul. There is plenty of money for OD to do the right thing and pay you dock bumpers for putting extra hours to help them grow their brand. This place is already the best ltl to work at, imagine how great it would be to make what your worth!dooooode, you make so much!!! Making only 103k this year instead of 115k won't hurt you.
Virtually every P/D driver at OD has had the option of moving to Line-Haul at one time or another,many decline for a wide variety of reasons,its safe to assume they know about the disparity in pay rates when they make their choices..It is funny how things work. What they need to do is trim that road driver's pay a little and give it to the city drivers at all the companies.
