What does it mean, who knows whats gonna happen next. Is this it. I only sit back and take joy in knowing that all the upper management had their pension in their worthless stock.

Talked to the sales rep in my area today and asked her opinion about what's going on and she said she was not aware of it (Stocks for debt issue). After filling her in she said that she still felt confident that YRC was going to come back strong Her biggest/best account left in my run is a two-bit whole in the wall outfit that ships electrical motors, they don't have a forklift, they have to build the pallets on my trl. I asked her how sales has been working out for her since she used to be my supervisor, she said in a not so comnvincing tone that things were going great, the sales department was kicking *** and taking names, I asked her is that why two other sales reps quit last week taking positions at ODFL. She gave me a really disgusted look and walked away in a huff, I LMFAO!!!

Ours took off a few weeks ago too. Went to a profitable carrier. A lot of sales people see the writing on the wall. You don't think the compitition was out in full force today with print outs for customers to show them the facts and to start shipping with them do you? Anybody else have customers tell you the routing was changed when you went in for a p/u today? I'd be worried if we didn't have the best contract ever to protect us!!!

Don't be playing favorites! What about all the loving yes girls? They chose that sandwich too over wages and pension! What is it you say, YUM YUM!!! They all give new meaning to the term faced.

I guess the ax poised to fall on all of the non contractual employees didn't have anything to do with the defection?
