To be fair, the New-Penn driver in my new area is as good as they get. The New-Penn driver where I ran for years was kicked out of customers right in front of my eyes. I have seen one of my fellow Conway drivers banned from an account. It goes both ways. | I had a bad experience with a non union company, a manager, a contractor, a teacher, a sales person, a church, and an American-----"THEY" are the slowest, laziest, most inconsiderate people.
See my point??

Objective and well written you say.(overpaid, cushy jobs, slowest, laziest and most inconsiderate people) IMO it reads more like outright union bashing. How are any of us "hard-core union guys" to know anything about his "first person perspective" when he continues to post only on the Non-Union forum?
I have posted a message & sent him a PM asking him to come over to this forum so that we can debate him on his hatred of all unions. But it would appear that he would rather hide & throw stones from over in the Non-Union forum. His post was an attack on all unions. It was about picking up & delivering loads to union companies & not just about Teamster truck drivers. Quote:

These people will vote along a party line according to their paychecks without regard to social and moral issues that, frankly, are more important and will ultimately chew up our pay in the long run. They are the slowest, laziest, most inconsiderate people and I loathe the load that begins or ends at a unionized company. | |
