I'm going to be happy if yeller allows me to finish out to my retirement ..... fairly.I'm gonna let you guys go awhile and let others talk without my input. I've surely said more than my piece. But a change of ops should not have a right to make us guys haul twice as much freight for the same pay. Even though I'm city, I don't want the door open for us to have to even pull 2 empty trailers. One is enough. And we may never pull them. Plenty will pull them with no opposition. But I think it should be a choice not a mandate and they can wait till we retire.
You guys did that. We did not. It wasn't our world.
That should require a vote. That's pretty much a concession without a vote.
UE vs road isn't my issue. Maybe you feel the same.
I'm sure the Locals will weigh as to wether they gain or lose positions and how many. That will be their focus most probably.
I'm gonna chill for a few days. So more can voice opinions.
I have told my BA that we should have a grandfather clause. Anybody hired before the change is approved.
As it stands with this proposal.... I'm going to be let go.
Not the first time I've had to start over.
