What do you guys think of the direction Estes is going. Please, limit this to Estes employees. Can't stop others, just asking.:smilie_132:
I have a lot of respect for the Big E. But I will venture to guess that not all your drivers feel the same about taking off work with no pay! Shoe out, see you in the right lane when you blow my doors off! :smilie_132:even though some drivers, including myself, are asked to take a day off now and then so that other drivers may run and I gladly concede even if it means a day off without pay.

Ya I just love the guys that look to see YRC fail at our company without even thinking twice about what if you were in a YRC drivers shoes and shut the doors.
Some guys have family, kids, wifes, etc. I don't want to see anybody close the doors that is not good for anybody.

Estes is going to be a large player and it really is a great company, run very well. The damages is what got to me and nothing was done or inforced about them though.

Nobody with any sense wants to see YRC fail.. First, and foremost, for a "U" company, there are some of the most dedicated, business minded drivers you will ever meet.... They know thier Shiite! They are hard workers, and work for thier company to wrangle new freight.
They also know how to co- exist in buisiness with thier non "U" compadrades, and be civil.
I have been rebutted by alot of people to my point that YRC sets the driver salary rates, but I still say without them, our rate falls to crappola over time..
If nothing else, in this crashing economy, we would rather see 30,000 people empoyed and squeak by rather than have the industry overwhelmed, by freight we are not talented enough to handle...
I just wish I knew how YRC got into this situation,
Every opinion in here has merit.....I just wish I knew how YRC got into this situation, and maybe they can back track to he beginning, and turn it around...too many people, and too many lives are at stake in this serious situation....concessions are fine, but it will take more that giving up pay, 401, and any other fringe benefit to get it back....they need to look at the root of the problem, and start there....good luck to all....Estes will survive....
I have to admit that I HATE sounding like a company kiss arse, but can any of you think of a better trucking company to be employed by in these shakey times?

Are you telling me that Rob is a BAC????
