No matter what happens yrc must be forced into paying off its debt load, if zollars had used our givebacks in the spirit they were given I suspect we would still be in debt but not to this degree,
Absolutelly. We should at least carry a small degree of the dignity that the bankers have. They have requirements for loaning money. They have deadlines and demands. We too should have demands and deadlines. And I dont wanna hear "ya cant tell them how to run their business" crap. They dont know or we wouldnt be here.
The banks want guarentees of how their money will be paid back. They want the company to want something for us.
Its only fair for us to want in return also.
Some proposals from us could be things that should make the bankers even more comfortable, such as maybe having in writing that YrC isnt gonna waste money on extra white collar jobs with the money they get from us. Maybe we could propose that they cut down on white colllar spending under a 5 year contract. Wouldnt that kind of stuff make the bankers more comfortable?
Or are they all in cohoots to take union rights away altogether?
If their is language in there for incremental pay increases, like i have heard through rumour, and if they gave us more say like things to make us more comfortable that they aint gonna keep violating the contract procedures and durations, and if things are put in there for even the locals and IBT to keep an eye on their books to make sure they arent just screwing us, and are paying down their debt i see a yes vote possible.
But if they want us to trust them and just vote yes on faith in them with no proposals from us, no. The banks get demands and so should we......no insurance to our side? NO DEAL.
they cant be adding management and increasing their pay as they take from us. No deal.
