cin is for Cinnaminson. new jersey. from what I have been told even though that terminal voted it down. there are rumblings of fed-ex management threatening employees with layoffs if they voted for the union.
LOL, you didn't get it.
You know, sarcasm can be fun AND make a point with humor. But you are just plain abrasive. Peeps are more likely to listen to your well thought logic if you present it in a more civil manner. In the meantime, you represent the corporation in an aggressively hostile mode that......never mind. Keep doing what you're doing and you will continue to influence people and win friends. It would be hard to believe you're not surrounded by friends and co-workers.
Like your work man and I love you like a brother! You make a solid and attractive case for corporate domination and we need that here.
Thank you and please stick around.
Awww, am I too abrasive for some people's tender lil psyches?
That's a shame.
Uh-oh. Banned again?Well since it's not 1920 lets stick with talking about 2020. It's post deregulation. This is the REAL world we are living in.
That can & will get you reprimanded .... This place was hopping on Friday ....Awww, am I too abrasive for some people's tender lil psyches?
That's a shame.
Hes non union. He works at OD. If he was union it would be at least triple that. Keep trying.OOh! Hotel stays AND $7.50 an hour??? Where's the card?
You arent just sitting on your duff. You are away from home doing the company's business.I think they should pay us road drivers more on breakdown yes, but we don't have to give them any time to get it, it's as soon as you break down. City drivers obviously get their normal hourly for breakdowns. The delay at the hotel is pay for sitting on your duff watching tv so that's money for nothing.

Do you honestly believe going union will fix any of that ? A union can't change the business or its operations. All they can do is offer representation. Ask a YRC driver about broken promises. And bad business decisions and practices. Ask him what good that union was to him. What that union did to stop top heavy management from mismanaging the simplest of day to day operations.
Agreed.
Although the driver may not be actively producing, he/she is made available at the expense of his own time and family.
The driver is not free to leave for shopping, dental work, or even a movie. The corporation enjoys readiness at the driver's expense.
I stand corrected.On the contrary we take our tractors to the hotel and are free to bobtail to eat, shop, whatever within reason. Once we are called we are given 2 hours to be back to the yard.
I stand corrected.
Regardless, you are there for work and not at home.
Thanks for clearing that up.
7.50/hr isn't much but when you figure I used to sit in the cab of a sleeper for nothing when I ran otr, it's not bad. We don't sit on the road very much either.
I am real sorry sorry you feel that way. One of the reason's for the driver shortage is companies not realizing the value of truck drivers. You don't cut drivers pay for any reason. Drivers make a company...
