I Agree with you, Yellow overspent for USF. they should not have borrowed and paid 1.4 b for usf.
But you will not find a single Holland employee who was happy about it.
The employees did not want to be owned, or operated by Yellow. But that is something we had no control over, just try to make the best of the situation.
Holland owned most of their terminals and equipment. But not no more.
I watched yellow drivers come to our terminal and take New Holland tractors and they were re-labeled yrc or yellow.
these tractors had 8000 miles on them.
I could go on but wont. Not looking for a argument just stating what I've seen.
Holland o.r. was approx. 87.0 b4 being bought. Now were at 97.0 approx.
Point is Holland employees didn't ask for this.
The same with Roadway,New penn, Reddaway, and the usf companies that were closed.
The Yellow employees didn't ask for this either.
So if they did ever separate the companies, who would survive and who would fail.
I'm betting Holland would survive.
