Brother helping brother !
At 455 all of the drivers seem to be working togather and helping each other. It's the computer system and freight that is messed up. Management says the freight is there but they were told to sit on it. By whom I do not know. Management seems to be as confused as the rest of us.

X120 driver now at 123/mbk
I worked Sunday. It was my first and only day I worked so far. The computers keep going down. Now I hear that A layed off teamster with " ONE YEAR " is being called to run trips at 120. The first call he got, he refused because he was busy. The next day they called him and he ran 2 trips to 135 from 120 and the third day he did the same thing. What the hell is this all about. Today is Wednesday, 9:00 AM and i'm still waiting for a call. I guess i will have to sign up for Unemployment and I have 20 years with the teamsters while someone with 1 year is working.
WTF :Flame-On:
:furious:
You guys at 120, Please let us know what is going on.

Looks like YRC is set up to fail most of the people from management who knew what was going on are gone. My shift with 15 guys goes in at 1700 we are waiting around for an hour on bills and drivers to come back in. We are sending everything to Dallas from Houston like Beaumont which is only 94 miles away, Victoria 140, San Antonio 196 miles. How can we save money by running it up to Dallas then bring it back down 1-10 or 59 through Houston ? They are leaving a paper trail of bad management for when they file for bankruptsy. There is no way they can pay off that 2.9 Billion to the banks & the 4 billion owed to the pension fund down here in the south. This PIG is done put a fork in it. I'll continue to go to work & do my part till they lock the gates. Then I'll go apply at YRC Logistics for less pay. The Gov will take over our pension fund at least get something $1400 is the max they pay out. Hope I'm wrong because I have 20 yrs. I do see a light at the end of the tunnel but it belongs to the train that is comming straight for us. I wish all who are on the board directors from YRC the same fate financialy that you have given us.

I am sure all of this crap will be worked out in short order.....met few Roadways guys from Allentown and Trenton seems like great guys to me.....it does seem like the only hate and discontent is a select few.....

The mainline is a Unix based operating system. More dependable than any Windows product and it may not seem like it but faster. You have to know the commands though and this is why every one thinks its antiquated it does not look or act like windows. Every supervisor should have a list of the commands and what they do, but I have not seen one laying around.
What scares me more than anything is the lack of tow motors and computers at Indy 324. People unable to do job because there are not enough tow motors. No computers on the tow motors and there and not enough hand held computers. Supervisors routing bills for people without computers with out checking where freight goes and sending it to wrong doors.
Freight for EOL terminals not being run because line haul is to busy trying to run main line. Utility can only pull so much freight back and if they where pulling full loads back before merge. It does not take a rocket scientist to know that line haul will have to run overflow.
Workers seem to be getting along just overwhelmed with amount of freight dumped on them. The yellow dock workers don't seem to be having to many problems with computers if they can get one.Yellow pro numbers are causing a lot of problems and the Yellow movement bills are small and hard to read. Once these are out of system it should get better.
The operating system (Windows or Unix or even DOS) isn't the problem since no one is directly interfacing with the OS. It's the specialized/customized program running on top of the operating system that was developed for Yellow and/or Roadway that anyone deals with in the course of the day.
