Or maybe they would have merged you into CF and the parasite could have died and the host lived.i sure wish we could have signed back then so we could be screwed like you guys that would have been smart

Just sign the cards and quit being slit tails. You all know it's the right thing to do. Have some nads for once in your life.
I would love to see a full investigation of the CSPF, and find out exactly where the 6 billion UPS paid went. It was pissed away to someone's pocket, Imo.The five billion that UPS paid the pension funds to get their employees out of the pensions, was pissed away within a couple of years. Bill Gates' 54 billion couldn't bail the pension funds out.....since they'd **** it away within a couple of years also.
Yellow could have purchased CF and rescued that company - instead they purchased Roadway. Nobody's upset at Zollars for this? You complain about drivers at non-union companies not wanting to unionize. You do know we can read your threads on the union boards , right?Or maybe they would have merged you into CF and the parasite could have died and the host lived.
I dont complain about non-union drivers not organizing. If you did read my posts you would know that I could care less if you organized or not. And yellow didn't rescue anything. CF didnt need rescuing, it had a parasite bleeding it out.Yellow could have purchased CF and rescued that company - instead the purchased Roadway. Nobody's upset at Zollars for this?

With "friends" like you, we don't need enemies.Just sign the cards and quit being slit tails. You all know it's the right thing to do. Have some nads for once in your life.
If you have read any of my comments before you would know that I went to DC with some other retirees to support the drivers in the CSPF. So yes I would call that brotherhood.Yeah what brotherhood... I got mine!
"Teamsters President James Hoffa blamed deregulation for Consolidated Freightway's bankruptcy. But that's far from the whole story. Hoffa's allies in the conservative old guard ran the Teamsters union when CNF began moving assets into Con-Way--and let them get away with it"I dont complain about non-union drivers not organizing.

With an eye to the future, what will make stock more valuable? Increasing employee compensation? Taking from the employee bucket and moving it to the company bucket increases stock value. This so-called driver shortage isn't moving my driver pay up much more than usual annual raises do. The union votes are failing because they have nothing attractive to offer at the moment. I predict that xpo will cut compensation and increase pressure on drivers to perform higher and other companies will do likewise. Eventually enough drivers will tire of it and when it gets bad enough the union will get voted in, but not in time to save cspf.I read one of Jacobs quotes in an article today where he bottom lined what he and xpo are all about-- making xpo stock more valuable to its share holders. How is this going to be accomplished? Think it through
So is all the Union carriers better off? Are they happier with their wages? Do they have better benefits? Im really asking, because I don't know.
You know it was a long time ago but I remember talking to the union drivers and they were told to lay off the Conway Express drivers and still wonder why. Maybe they believed the great lie too...1988 "Conway Express is next day only. We'll never compete head to head with CF." (about picking up 2 day freight, we were told to take back to shipper)Seems to me, when Con-way was starting up, the Teamsters Union was approached for Con-way to be represented by the Teamsters Union. And the Teamsters Union said no.
Guess their just embarrassed!! All the promises gone, billions of dollars pissed away. Really is sad.Looks like no one wants to answer your questions.
Well, maybe if the CSPF hadn't made those 'loans' to The Mafia for those Las Vegas casino's back in the 60's...No Conway doesn't. But based on all of the pension letters that I've been getting from my Teamster Pension Fund (Central States Pension Fund)........neither does the Union companies.
My pension has been cut by 2/3. That's correct, I will get 1/3 of what I was promised. And the odds are that I won't even get that 1/3.
Conway employees need to throw this information back in the face of the organizers.
Yes still have my pensionnothing shocking about the cuts just adapt and overcomeDoes Central States ?

The comment he made was that his fund is doing well. CSPF may be the largest but there are dozens of other healthy Teamster funds.The comment I replied to says otherwise. So which is it?
Would love to get the Mob back. Those loans made the funds money. When the Mafia was around the unions were strong and the neighborhoods safe.Well, maybe if the CSPF hadn't made those 'loans' to The Mafia for those Las Vegas casino's back in the 60's...
