I am sorry you don't get and you don't remember what the original concessions were. I didn't state our contact is better. So your telling me you don't deserve what you had back in 2008 after 10 years of concessions? Then was is the point of the union when you are just accepting what the company throws out there the first time? And yes I was sticking around for this contract to see how it went, thinking that YRC might have it together after 10 years but apparently not. Call me a troll, I call it how I see it! Please feel free to explain what you think the original concessions were and what the company promised to give back after the concessions.

I'm telling you the money isn’t there to give it all back.The company didn’t throw anything out there the first time.

The union walked out of negotiations,extended the negotiations and came back telling us they got every penny they could get with the company having a chance at survival.

They,not the company,the unions own economic advisory panel projected a closing as early as Memorial Day with a IBT strike authorization vote.
They believed enough customers would pull their freight from us that with accounts payable it would do them in.

Every one of us can go to another job.We are grown men,not scared but content with our employment.

Those that aren’t are chicken :shit:t for staying and being miserable.If they are staying for age or medical then they should be extremely thankful.
No one wants to listen to grown men bitching and whining about there job constantly.

Be a man and leave the mother ****er if they don’t like it..even if it is a worse job.
If I thought as bad as some of these posters about my job I swear I would go to a $ 12.00 warehouse job.Any sane man would..who chooses to remain in misery?
 
Y'all need to get off this "my pile is bigger than your pile" argument. .lol
Furthermore you forgetting about the other person's "wildcard". Who knows, they might be blessed like myself and have a wife that makes almost as much as I do.
Y'all are so silly...

I totally agree, we are all different companies,if we don’t like the one we’re at we should go to another one.Its pretty simple,really.
 
Please tell us where you work.
We would all love to do better.
I made 73k and 74k in the city with free ( and damn good insurance)
in the city with union work rules.
Sounds pretty fair to me and a bunch of guys made more than me.

The way I see it was I was making roughly 23/hr when I left at Roadway in 2008, you guys are at roughly the same amount now. In 2008 minimum wage was 7 and some change where I'm at, now it's almost $15, you guys are making way too close to minimum wage now, that's pathetic for what you have to put up with. Sure you can still make a boatload of cash if you work 60hrs a week, but I'd rather 8 and skate and make good money.
 
You overlook the obvious solution to your dilemma. MYOB. I am skeptical you have ever been employed by Yellow, Roadway, New Penn, Holland or YRC Freight.

I worked at Roadway Express for a couple of years until I was laid off in 2008 when everything went to ::shit::. I was actually recalled in 2014, I told them to take a hike.

most minimum wage employers dont offer excellent h&w, and most are not very close to 15 an hr. mb 11...
