Just recieved via ups overnight, a letter from YRC that they will cloising down the Roadway terminal in Philly, I was layed off back in October and have since found decent work, YRC could have saved a few sheckles on the overnight 1lb letter. I wonder how many letters like this go out daily to permenatly layed off worker's??????

Will there be a COO, or have we moved past that and it's just what ever the company decides to do?
 
wishfull thinking here but maybe by june we will be busy and they cant close as many. as for philly heard that is a leased terminal and theft problem there. any way if seniority date is 2000 you may not be working for a while
 
107 (Cheshire) closing moving 70% work to Middletown,CT. and balance going to Springfield,Mass.Maybrook and MT.Vernon N.Y.
 
141 Leased?

Philly (141) a leased terminal? They must have had a 50 year lease. That terminal has been occupied by Roadway longer than any other terminal in the region that I know of.

This terminal is owned by Roadway going back to the mid 60's. Northeast windows is on both sides of the terminal. He made YRC an offer that they can't refuse. They bit and the rest in money to be pumped down the rat hole for survival.
