The problems that 705 is facing I completely understand, however the bigger picture is that the Teamsters need to protect the future of YRC at just about any expense. Is this a sad state of affairs? DEFINITELY!!! But there is nothing we can do to change the course of events. The only thing, regardless of what the union does or doesn't do is to hope this economy turns around or many of us are doomed, not just YRC and the Teamsters. |
Man, its a good thing thats' not what 707 out of Queens NY thinks, they have documented a significant number of instances of diversion of work by Yellow thru YRC logistics.
Grievances are filed and are in the process of trying to straighten it out.
And NO NOT AT ANY EXPENSE.
Hope isn't going to pay your mortgage or buy your family food.
They had the 80 million to buy the Chinese outfit.
How much does dollar bill make, salary as well as stock.

Nobody wants to rape and pillage but we should be able to get on the same train as the employers to the end of the line.

If they supress our wages, WHO will buy the durable goods that keep this economy going as well as growing.
Please do not enlist yourself in a conversation that believes EVERYTHING they say.
They are only concerned about the stockholders and their corporate wages, which by the way are grossly out of porportion to the rest of us, and what perks they can get during and when they are fired.
Gotta go
