Actually, in a situation where the worker is in short supply, it becomes a matter of what the worker is willing to accept for their effort. This is the law of supply and demand at work. It is amazing how many people on here try to rationalize the idea that the law somehow does not apply to YRC employees. It’s called The LAW of Supply and Demand for a reason – it must be obeyed. It does not matter one bit whether you trust the workers with this power, or not.

The law of supply and demand is a theory that explains the interaction between the supply of a resource and the demand for that resource. ... Generally, low supply and high demand increase price. In contrast, the greater the supply and the lower the demand, the price tends to fall.

That's true. But the only way for you to prove you believe it tho (supply and demand is an individual Theory and not a collective one) is to look for other jobs and negotiate with their offers....

I'm no longer in LTL, but work directly for a Manufacturer. They recently stopped the very solid Single Employer Pension, and pay 401k. Our insurance is FAR Better than TeamCare that I used to have, but I do pay $125 biweekly to get it...
