Union is not the answer. Do you really want to send your money to corrupt union officials? Then you have to answer to two bosses. Union bosses and company bosses. No thanks!
So your stuck at 8 hr. Days and feel you are being screwed. Take a night time bid.. at least we can bump into any classification. That's a good thing.so here it is.....ccx was spun off of cf, right?so ccx paid us like union and treated us pretty good right? so as upper management watches all the give backs the union outfits give back they are like "I don't think the union carries the big stick anymore"? right? so it appears to us (upper management speaking) that now that the teamsters have all but given up all power to the companies and our drivers can see that, so with that thought in their highly educated brains they say "hey wait a minute!!!! that means that we don't have to treat these guys good anymore bcuz with the thought of organizing out of their pea sized brains we can pretty much do as we please to these idiots" right? correct me if im wrong but we have no say in the matter, its simple they are going to do as they please bcuz like ive said before this aint ccx anymore. its Conway now and its not our Conway its theirs. im not pro union nor will I be convinced to be , but it does sadden me that the guys at the top whom don't make one red cent for this place are so blind that they will literally screw the men and woman who have made this company what it was and put food on their families tables over a number on a spread sheet....bcuz that's what it is you are no longer a human working for this place you have become a parasite eating away at their bottom line.
It must be nice to think your smart enough to tell others how to run there lives. You don't know the mans situation but, that doesn't stop you from opening your piehole. You'll be fine!!!!!So your stuck at 8 hr. Days and feel you are being screwed. Take a night time bid.. at least we can bump into any classification. That's a good thing.

I couldn't care less about anybody's situation. I'm taking care of mine..yeah, I'm fine. Thanks..
Thats right,you don't care about anyone else, and thats why you keep giving your uneducated opinions about unions.Just offering up an idea. I couldn't care less about anybody's situation. I'm taking care of mine..yeah, I'm fine. Thanks..
Will you quit trying to confuse Beerfd with facts. You have done a great job trying to explain the facts, and obviously he is clueless. I have said before I'm not sure the Union is the answer, but it's not working for us now.beerfd...dude your killin me, the work has to be done, we have an o.r of 94...operating as is without any freight we are killin it, so instead of going after freight to make more money the management just picks the low hanging fruit (us) to add to the coffers.its zero effort just ummm yeah hey dsrs we ummmm are ummmm taking all of your ummmm overtime away bcuz ummmm we feel it...it has nothing to do with me being whiny it is simply like yeah were all making money and were only gonna share it with the people who dont do the actual work....that my friend is what is called being screwed....bcuz WE do the work, WE gave up 1$ PER HOUR for the stupid racks they bought, WE gave up a 401k match and dont forget WE got vacation time taken away, and now that the dorks in ann arbor are making money WE are the ones being SCREWED OVER, so sorry man im usually not one of your detractors but dude really?

We used to not get any at all, it's a plus.
Don't confuse fact with opinions, I had my wages reduced and my 401 match changed due to the economy in 2008. I have lost ZERO vacation days. The fact is we changed from TTO to PTO, that's the fact and has always been documented information of operating methods of the company. EVERYONE holds their opinions with passion, but show me a document that states an employee will have their days off per their service rank reduced. The FACT is that you get paid a very good wage for every minute you are on the clock. Going forward your job as a driver will be just that, driver. And to Turbo's point, yes, the work has to be done. The toughest part of this change in operating models is forecasting the amount of dock work and the timing of when the freight hits the dock. The largest, most immediate change is creating start times for drivers without dock time built in to them. Our workforce is historically the most flexible within the LTL industry. Going into 2014 local management will need to step up and move away from their thirty year old methods of staffing.

Ya still hanging your hat on that from 4 years ago? All my vacation is still there. They give it to you every week now..instead of all at once. If you plan to retire,,just work the whole year and don't take off..you'll never miss anything..haha what idiots. you'll have your four weeks. conspiracy theorists.Good for you, because the rest of us worked for a year without accruing any vacation time. In my case, that was 4 weeks lost.
Thats right,you don't care about anyone else, and thats why you keep giving your uneducated opinions about unions.
But how many hours a week were you working then ? I'd take the same pay at the end of the week for fewer hours with ot thanks.
