What's the story?

Anyone with insults directed at Ward should get their info straight. I work for UPSF (Overnite) now, but about 5 years ago I finished up 7 years of pulling a flatbed for Ward Truckload Express, plus I transfered to the LTL side in Harmarville,Pa for about 6 months but it was too far to travel so I went back to the Flatbed side. Ward was one of the best non-union companies I ever worked for and the only reason I left was because I didn't care for the ops mgr. on the Trkld Express side. It's a very good company to work for and access to the Ward family with a problem was great. The bennies were very good and teh pay also, but I see the pay has increased a bit since I left. Almost to Union scale without the hassle.

The people that will be taking over will make your backside hurt. And you guys will all be sitting there saying wow we didnt see that coming......you do know you guys are for sale dont you:1036316054:
 
I heard rumblings that YRC/New Penn folks were in Altoona PA this week............truth or now.........a rumor has some merit......where that is takes research and time.

A friend of mine just put in some applications around town and Ward was one of them. I dont know to much about their pay and benefits,or the work enviroment. The trucks I see on the road look good. Just curious what the starting pay and top scale are,and do the city drivers work the dock? Is this a good company to work for?
