ODFL | My yard isn't happy with the new OT

[TooFat4Spandex]

Did anyone see the video from CEO? He is saying they won't cut hours and they consider the change from 60 to 50 OT an improvement to compensation package.

The CEO stated that it’s over time after 50 unless, your state or local law says it’s over 40.

Our TM has already cut P&D hours to about 40 or so and hired new guys to take care of the work that was being done by people who want to work 50 60 hours. Now those P&D drivers are poaching weekend linehaul runs mainly good runs because they can run early in the morning so wild drivers that work afternoon weekends are getting stuck with crappy short runs. It's a vicious cycle

Just remember all those times the union guys would tease us about overtime. We all knew the truth then and the truth now. With that said i will be one of those who will enjoy the fewer work hours.

I thought you guys were going to OT after 45 originally, or was that just hear say ??

I never heard about 45. It’s going to be OT after 50 in January.

you're doing that now with no overtime, which is illegal btw

 

[TooFat4Spandex]

Our yard just got a check for all the OT we missed the last three years and they gave us a letter saying it will be OT after 40 which started after thanksgiving

That must be a sizable amount of back pay.

The "Union" didn't make the -15% decision, the employees themselves voted it in. Get your facts right.

They should’ve never done it,, let that joke of a government handout outfit sink and go get real jobs,,

The people who were affected got to vote, that's the democratic way. Those who didn't like the outcome were free to move on to something else, those who voted to accept the reduction got to stay employed. Seems fair to me. Of course many who don't even work there got to express their opinions , which for the most part were pretty useless.

Not everyone affected got to vote on it.

Maybe it's because I live such a lavish lifestyle but I'd take a 15% cut anytime to work under a contract.
