In my opinion if YRC really needs these concessions .... it will still be to late to save this Company. Will it buy more time ? probably ... but it will not keep them in business. I think there is about a 70% chance YRC is just trying to dig deep as the Banks are not ready to walk away yet and if it doesn't pass there will be a plan " B " .
 
The economy is bad,the workers are scared,and YRCW knows it and will use the opportunity to get whatever they want and they`ll use whatever tactics it takes. In 6 months if the economy is still bad,they`ll be back for more if they`re still in business. YRCW`s business model is "Never let an opportunity to screw the union members slip by". Zollars wants to break the union more than he wants to save the company.YRCW is so far gone all this vote is for is to prolong the inevitable. For many,that`s worth a yes vote and in this economy I can understand that. Every week`s work means another paycheck to many YRCW teamsters and that`s all that matters to them.
 
Maybe they are posturing to go into some form of bankruptcy so they can get protection from the banks. In other words screw the help first , then screw the banks...
Chapters
There are six types of bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy Code, located at Title 11 of the United States Code:
Chapter 7: basic liquidation for individuals and businesses; also known as straight bankruptcy; it is the simplest and quickest form of bankruptcy available
Chapter 9: municipal bankruptcy; a federal mechanism for the resolution of municipal debts
Chapter 11: rehabilitation or reorganization, used primarily by business debtors, but sometimes by individuals with substantial debts and assets; known as corporate bankruptcy, it is a form of corporate financial reorganization which typically allows companies to continue to function while they follow debt repayment plans
Chapter 12: rehabilitation for family farmers and fishermen;
Chapter 13: rehabilitation with a payment plan for individuals with a regular source of income; enables individuals with regular income to develop a plan to repay all or part of their debts; also known as Wage Earner Bankruptcy
Chapter 15: ancillary and other international cases; provides a mechanism for dealing with bankruptcy debtors and helps foreign debtors to clear debts.
The most common types of personal bankruptcy for individuals are Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. As much as 65% of all U.S. consumer bankruptcy filings are Chapter 7 cases. Corporations and other business forms file under Chapters 7 or 11.
In Chapter 7, a debtor surrenders his or her non-exempt property to a bankruptcy trustee who then liquidates the property and distributes the proceeds to the debtor's unsecured creditors. In exchange, the debtor is entitled to a discharge of some debt; however, the debtor will not be granted a discharge if he or she is guilty of certain types of inappropriate behavior (e.g. concealing records relating to financial condition) and certain debts (e.g. spousal and child support, student loans, some taxes) will not be discharged even though the debtor is generally discharged from his or her debt. Many individuals in financial distress own only exempt property (e.g. clothes, household goods, an older car) and will not have to surrender any property to the trustee. The amount of property that a debtor may exempt varies from state to state. Chapter 7 relief is available only once in any eight year period. Generally, the rights of secured creditors to their collateral continues even though their debt is discharged. For example, absent some arrangement by a debtor to surrender a car or "reaffirm" a debt, the creditor with a security interest in the debtor's car may repossess the car even if the debt to the creditor is discharged.
The 2005 amendments to the Bankruptcy Code introduced the "means test" for eligibility for chapter 7. An individual who fails the means test will have his or her chapter 7 case dismissed or may have to convert his or her case to a case under chapter 13.
Generally, a trustee will sell most of the debtor’s assets to pay off creditors. However, certain assets of the debtor are protected to some extent. For example, Social Security payments, unemployment compensation, and limited values of your equity in a home, car, or truck, household goods and appliances, trade tools, and books are protected. However, these exemptions vary from state to state. Therefore, it is advisable to consult an experienced bankruptcy attorney.
In Chapter 13, the debtor retains ownership and possession of all of his or her assets, but must devote some portion of his or her future income to repaying creditors, generally over a period of three to five years. The amount of payment and the period of the repayment plan depend upon a variety of factors, including the value of the debtor's property and the amount of a debtor's income and expenses. Secured creditors may be entitled to greater payment than unsecured creditors.
Relief under Chapter 13 is available only to individuals with regular income whose debts do not exceed prescribed limits. If you're an individual or a sole proprietor, you are allowed to file for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy to repay all or part of your debts. Under this chapter, you can propose a repayment plan in which to pay your creditors over three to five years. If your monthly income is less than the state's median income, your plan will be for three years unless the court finds "just cause" to extend the plan for a longer period. If your monthly income is greater than your state's median income, the plan must generally be for five years. A plan cannot exceed the five-year limitation.
In contrast to Chapter 7, the debtor in Chapter 13 may keep all of his or her property, whether or not exempt. If the plan appears feasible and if the debtor complies with all the other requirements, the bankruptcy court will typically confirm the plan and the debtor and creditors will be bound by its terms. Creditors have no say in the formulation of the plan other than to object to the plan, if appropriate, on the grounds that it does not comply with one of the Code's statutory requirements. Generally, the payments are made to a trustee who in turn disburses the funds in accordance with the terms of the confirmed plan.
When the debtor completes payments pursuant to the terms of the plan, the court will formally grant the debtor a discharge of the debts provided for in the plan. However, if the debtor fails to make the agreed upon payments or fails to seek or gain court approval of a modified plan, a bankruptcy court will often dismiss the case on the motion of the trustee. Pursuant to the dismissal, creditors will typically resume pursuit of state law remedies to the extent a debt remains unpaid.
In Chapter 11, the debtor retains ownership and control of its assets and is re-termed a debtor in possession ("DIP"). The debtor in possession runs the day to day operations of the business while creditors and the debtor work with the Bankruptcy Court in order to negotiate and complete a plan. Upon meeting certain requirements (e.g. fairness among creditors, priority of certain creditors) creditors are permitted to vote on the proposed plan. If a plan is confirmed the debtor will continue to operate and pay its debts under the terms of the confirmed plan. If a specified majority of creditors do not vote to confirm a plan, additional requirements may be imposed by the court in order to confirm the plan.
Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 are the efficient bankruptcy chapters often used by most individuals. The chapters which almost always apply to consumer debtors are chapter 7, known as a "straight bankruptcy", and chapter 13, which involves an affordable plan of repayment. An important feature applicable to all types of bankruptcy filings is the automatic stay. The automatic stay means that the mere request for bankruptcy protection automatically stops and brings to a grinding halt most lawsuits, repossessions, foreclosures, evictions, garnishments, attachments, utility shut-offs, and debt collection harassment.
 
Bankruptcy does not work in the trucking industry, as soon as the company declares the shippers call another carrier, no freight on money, it's not like manufacturing where there is still a product to sell we have no product only a service.

Damn, I thought it was going to be starting line up for the Boston Red Sox.
 
It depends on what pays more and how long the checks keep coming..YRC or employment checks. It's a no brainer..pay checks will still be at least a $1,100 a week or more. You wouldn't even be asked this time if Hoffa-Tyson didn't think it was necessary. If freight don't pick up in 5 years you might have to go with unemployment checks and food stamps. No guarantees. It might not be a pride or dignity act paying for food with the food stamp card at the Stop & Shop whatever especially if they decide to close it a week before

but how could they not make it with these concessions? No way they can't resume pensions in '15

The union & the company have all the members so worried about their jobs it's embarrassing.
One driver at our barn is going around asking all members to vote yes because he needs the insurance for his sick wife & family w/ a tear in his eye. The whole time he his telling me this all I can think about was him bragging earlier this summer about his houseboat & ski boat & how much it cost to keep at the dock every year. I guess she was so sick she could barely get up on a pair of water skis.
Very sad, feel very bad for him. (sarcasm)
They got enough scared to vote this in & in 6 months from now before they start paying in the pension we can all go through this again.

How dare anyone with a sick wife own a boat or motorcycle or anything unnecessary !! He should be shunned by all big-balled Teamsters !!!!!
 
By looking at the way the stock price is rapidly sinking ($6 to $3.70 in 2 weeks), by the time the vote count is released we will be back at less than $1. If this happens, they will be put back on notification by Nasdaq to raise the price above $1, but they do not have the ability to do this anymore ( no more shares to reverse split), and they will not be able to secure any more loans. IMO, the end is very near if the stock price keeps going down.
 
YRC is already Bankrupt. They just need the yes men so they can continue to make the minimum payment. You know, just like the YES men who have a $15,000 Credit Card bill and are making the minimum payment. YRC and the Yes men will be back in the Black By the year 2045. Anyone who votes YES for this concession is either Flat Broke, Stupid, or Both.
