DE,299 has cartage in on ANY day at any time if we are busy (most of the time, sometimes every day of the week,including saturdays). nobody is on layoff and we get plenty of overtime, we just dont have enough people moving the freight to our customers even with the largest #'s ever on the board.OK - so where is their reps (aka goons)? No more card checks?
No card checks anymore? Just anybody with a truck can come and go - union - nonunion, nobody cares? Just slap a phony company style sticker on the door, hook up to a trailer, and go.DE,299 has cartage in on ANY day at any time if we are busy (most of the time, sometimes every day of the week,including saturdays). nobody is on layoff and we get plenty of overtime, we just dont have enough people moving the freight to our customers even with the largest #'s ever on the board.
infact we have trailers coming and going from our yard all day from not only cartage but our shop work is being outsourced, trailers and trucks..i see trailers coming and going all day every day for that as well, supposedly theyve cut shop overtime to 0 in advance of the mechanic contract negotiations.No card checks anymore?

No wonder trailers disappear.
Again, I say, no wonder trailers disappear. No gate guard checking papers or ID? or writing down trlr numbers and checking with dispatch?infact we have trailers coming and going from our yard all day from not only cartage but our shop work is being outsourced, trailers and trucks..i see trailers coming and going all day every day for that as well, supposedly theyve cut shop overtime to 0 in advance of the mechanic contract negotiations.

Like taking candy from babies. Just drive into yard with inside info on which trlr has high dollar frt on it - easy pickins.
They don't have time for the freight division, they are too tied up trying to organize those burger flippers.OK - so where is their reps (aka goons)? No more card checks?
Well I hope the mechanic's get in their contract they can't farm out until they offer o,t for a 6 and 7 day,thats what our guys get . Hoping for the bestinfact we have trailers coming and going from our yard all day from not only cartage but our shop work is being outsourced, trailers and trucks..i see trailers coming and going all day every day for that as well, supposedly theyve cut shop overtime to 0 in advance of the mechanic contract negotiations.
Good. He got caught, but how many do not? I recall quite a few years ago when two Holland trailers full of ATV's disappeared from a drop lot in eastern TN. Nothing ever found . Inside job there, too? Quite possibly.Yeah just ask the former road driver from Detroit, that is doing 20 years for stealing brand new forklifts. Just like candy from a baby.
Right they don't sell it ,but at a lot of barn's that is what is happening to get freight picked up !! because they can't hire nobody because we are the lowest starting pay scale and no pension !!There's no way our sales rep will sell the cartage thing. No cartage in Memphis.
You are mistaken! We can hire people.....they can only drive automatics.....kind of and if their GPS breaks down they have to pull over to the shoulder and call someone for directions.....and teeth are optional......but we can hire people!Right they don't sell it ,but at a lot of barn's that is what is happening to get freight picked up !! because they can't hire nobody because we are the lowest starting pay scale and no pension !!
No Henry not just anybody can slap a sticker on a rig a steal from us. First off our switchers are always watching for any PTS and procedures are in place when entering our premise. You sure assume a lot of failures not to ever have worked here. Come on man things aren't that bad. Give it a rest.No card checks anymore? Just anybody with a truck can come and go - union - nonunion, nobody cares? Just slap a phony company style sticker on the door, hook up to a trailer, and go.
