thank you for answering , first of all union dues are not 50 dollars a week,they are about 55 dollars a month, so that is under 2.00 a day if you want to break it down. second you are correct ,conway has operated at a loss for a few quarters,but that was by choice.conway, fedex both lowered their rates hauled freight at a loss trying to get yrc customers in hopes of putting yrc out of bussiness. third, yrc was 800 million in debt, this was caused by poor management not the union. thank god the union was there to protect the workers if not yrc employees would be working for a lot less than they are now. and remember yrc employees took 2 paycuts by their choice, did conway employees have a choice? i don't think so
You are right. And if memory serves me correctly YRC made their cuts first and we followed suit soon after. Just imagine what we would have lost had both companies been non union and were able to do what they want. I also believe they negotiated when pay and benefits were to be reinstated also. When will ours be reinstated? Anybody? Anybody?
