I sure am glad you guys are perfect drivers and have never made a mistake. What a sigh of relief!

Last week while driving to CRD, I gambled on a fart and lost. Out in the middle of nowhere with nary a bathroom in sight and no TP. Does that count as a rookie mistake?
Made that "rookie" mistake before. Finished a trip or two wearing only one sock !Last week while driving to CRD, I gambled on a fart and lost. Out in the middle of nowhere with nary a bathroom in sight and no TP. Does that count as a rookie mistake?
Joe, I never said that. I said I'm OK with it. I average 44-45.

Really? Descrimination speaks loudly.Laid off because of performance? If your employer doesn't like the job performance shouldn't that employer terminate that person's employment? I'm looking in from the outside.So the employer would rather risk unfair labor acts by laying off higher seniority or higher ranking people because of a bad performance points? Not laying off from the bottom up? Seems like to me that this is wrong.Layoff higher senior people because they are higher paid and use some faulty point system?California is an at will state
Even then, I'm sure they didn't get fired for complaining. I'm sure "poor performance" was the excuse-- I mean reason

You completely missed the point, if their job performance deems them to be an undesirable employee terminate them, laying them off is chicken ::.Who is laid off shouldn't be determined by seniority. Just because someone has managed to hang around for a long time doesn't mean they should automatically get to keep their job. It seems to me pretty much everyone laid off had attendance problems, had accidents, or poor performance. Why should those people who can't show up to work or can't avoid accidents keep their jobs over safe punctual; employees? This is a business, not a charity. The whole seniority thing is antiquated union BS. Seniority gets reward with priority vacation bids and bid runs (in linehaul). I think thats reward enough. At Saia you just have ti show up and do your job safely and you won't be laid off. Seems pretty simple to me.
These where not layoffs, it was called a RIF. Reduction in force. Saia let people go for things they did up to 2 years ago. They could not afford to lose the employees then, but when things got slow , they was the first to go. That was the worst 36 hours of my life , when I had to tell an employee he was being let go for a DMD from 2014.Layoffs hit atlanta this morning.... I heard 400 system wide

I would walk away with my head held high knowing that whatever happens in my life God is directing my path. If the worst thing this company can do is fire me then I feel truly blessed. As long as I have my health, hope and faith and the love of my family then I have everything. I would just walk with no bitterness. At my age you start to understand that God directs your course and that he has better things in store for me. It is not the things that happen to us that determine the quality of our life, it is strictly our attitude toward the things that happen.Well if you believe what the RAT says Saia did them a favor,wonder how he would feel if they extended him that "favor"?
