ANSWER C: A company that makes above what the employees have given back each quarter in pension and wage cuts.

Millions paid in interest and very little on the principle, with 3.5 years left on the MOU.
10's of millions saved each quarter on pension and wages doe not define a profit, no more than using fuel surcharges....KK

There's an old saying that applies here - "He would complain even if he was hung with a new rope."

This post makes me wonder if the company would ever put out a statement showing just how much they saved per year on the 15% giveback and reduced pension rate. Figure that number against the Companies qt and yearly statements and lets see how much of our givebacks is keeping the bottom line proped up. Don't get me wrong, I am impressed with the yearly results and the improved bottom line but how much longer till we can "Take the training wheels off" And see what this puppy can do?
 
(are going to be making a sizable capital investment in safety through this quarter and the first quarter of 2016 by installing in-cab safety technology in approximately 14,000 tractors.)

Everybody get ready for Drive Cam onboard video event recorders. Have been testing these here at 326 city equipment.

We're a long way from taking the training wheels off!! I'm am glad that they are making money, but a long way from being impressed. ABF is impressive making money while paying full pension and the last time I checked about $3/hr more than us. 94. 7 or for ABF now that's impressive

I have an opinion that is just as much as important as yours on here Triplex, other than I am not a company shill.....many workers feel the same way as I do, they just get tired of being badgered on here by others for it......KK

Nobody's telling you not to give your opinion or calling you a company shill. I'm just giving my own opinion of your opinion, that's all. Not insulting you or calling you any names like some have done to me, am I? And some are complaining of being "badgered"? Give me a break! Just because a differing opinion is being given? With all the ::shit:: comments that have been directed at me you never heard me complain of being "badgered". It's funny but some who put out the snarkiest comments are the ones who bring up the "badgering" accusation the most.

Oh and we're not "giving back" anything we never got either, just for the record.

I used to get paid 22.63 /hr now I don't. I don't know, but come pay day it certainly feels like I'm giving back.
