Yep Hooty! I think folks here have had just about enough of the crap
You should all read lesson 4 of the driver manual that just got updated last week. It's the driver disqualification policy and it's very scary.
Nobody wants to work here now. Why are they hell bent on getting rid of everybody? Could it be because they are that stupid? Yep...that s gotta be it..

I dont understand how you can say you make more then the union workers, first we dont pay for are health insurance, we can work all of the overtime we care to work, from what I hear from the fdx drivers no overtime hell there lucky if they get 32hrs on a 4/10 week. Then theres the times when you do make a mistake and they give you some of them points.
Personally, I think it's by design. Our newbees run run run... Answer the phone (while driving) when dispatch calls, pull overweight tlrs. etc etc. Plus they are part of the "just happy to have a job" crowd. I doubt they'll sign, so best to get this ball rolling before there are enough of them to make the difference... Then you see some old timers posting here how the (minimal) dues would be better put in their 401k... Really? Invest in a good calculator, please. Insanity, if you ask me.
At least allow a vote. Nothing to loose and everything to gain.

When you get fired you will understand!I don't understand this. Look at the other union carriers. They make less than us after the give back. Why would I want a union?
Union dues have nothing to do with any retirement plan. Union dues are used to pay the salaries of your representation, office personnel and other associated expenses that go toward keeping the lights on at the hall.
Pension contributions like 401k matches are paid by the employer.
I understand what you are saying, BUT, I don't have enough time left to work for it to help me now. I am old enough now to draw SS. I would rather put my money(union dues) into my 401k. For this reason and this reason ONLY I would have to vote no.
And please, no one tell me I need to think about helping those coming up behind me, because I'm sure they are not going to think about helping me when I'm gone from here.
