Vitran will be cutting another 5% in payroll; all full time employees with more then 6 months of full time employment will be affected as of January 31, 2010.
I was in the meeting last Friday in our Indiana terminal and listened to all the new changes that are being made! Of course the hazmat test that drivers are handing in are being filed right or wrong to use against you in the need to terminate you!
More pup trailers will be sent to replace straight jobs! Listen this is just a heads up to all!! too much to mention don’t let your guard down and speak out!


Good luck Guys

another 5% would just about wipe out any new driver . new drivers are already way under paid (im not a new driver , just saying) .

We are all underpaid,already 10% less than a certain comparable competitor,all you guys giving away your lunch breaks should really think about that,we are pushing more freight than before for less money and benefits already,if you count the raises and 401k contributions we have already taken large losses,I agree with coorslite47 speak out and let your voices be heard.

Speak out? Where? I complained one day ,politely, about the ongoing 5% (we were gonna get it back by years end,remember?), and about shorter runs,etc. I was told abruptly by the TM that there were at least 30 drivers out there waiting (unemployed) for my job! That's the general attitude of management now, not just here, but many companies.

Yeah,I hear ya,I might have pointed out Im better than 25 of those guys and the other 5 wont pass the drug test lol,I knew when we lost it it was probably gone for good but Im still yapping my flap.

What terminal in indiana did you here this at and who said it was it someone with power
