so many of us are on layoff and not working at all so why doesnt abf get alittle more competitive? i have been on layoff since oct. of last year. stop being a niche freight company and start taking a proactive responce to this crappy market and be more competitive. i feel as though this company has turned its back on a lot of us when it comes to that small town feeling i had when i got hired. i know that buisness is buisness but give me a break. the measters i work with are getting 55+hours a week. some actually run out of hrs by thursday. this has happened consistantly since my layoff. i say abf and their bs practice of only calling layed off guys when they have some hole to fill once a month and boooo to all the measters i used to work with that are not even trying to stop the practice that managment has set up to keep all of us layed off guys home . maybe the measters need to be named publically on this forum to make them feel the shame that they sould feel. i have been a union member for 24+ years and i am saddened at the fact that i am affiliated with this group of union suck ups
