I agree w/ you SW on the difference of the labor set up between the two companies, but what I was trying to emphasize that there seems to be no change over the years operationally between CF, CNW and now XPO. The philosophy that was told to me many years age when I first hitched my wagon to CNW was this,( and I quote)... "No matter what you do for this company, it's never hard enough, fast enough, or good enough." That thinking, I'm going to assume, originated from CF way back when.
Even though CF was the best job you ever had...didn't they have this operational hard work ethic even w/ the teamster presence?
I don't want to get in a war over con way and cf..... all I can say for myself is I would work as hard as possible to remain having that job..... management never pushed me.... I went to work did what was asked of me. .... then went home.
Some days were easy and others not so.... but I kept going back. ... some cannot grasp the concept of the best job ever.....
