I'll bet RB is so excited about this, he's pissing in his diaper!!!!That’s what the ultimate goal seems to be….
I saw that on Facebook. Good luck getting them to unload the oversized junk we haul. I see that working only in a warehouse that is perfectly flat and clean with clear paths and floor loaded freight that is perfectly square. I guess the robot gets the easy loads while you and I have to work the garbage.ArcBest just invested $25 million into this company. They make remote control forklifts amongst other things….
Just what we need, a remote-controlled Roadway Spy!Remote control forklifts? Heck, they want remote control workers!
Ya I don’t see that happening in ltl. I believe they will sell them to warehouses like you said. It’s just amazing they have the money for that but we have 6 Kelly dock plates we can’t get replaced, they have cones in front of those doors for the last 3 years. We have at least 8 doors out of 40 we can’t use because of neglect & the Kelly plates that do work take two people….I saw that on Facebook.

If nothing gets results maybe time to call OSHA?Actually he’s been sending pictures to the Fort & even had a guy show up from the Fort& still nothing.
Steward had a talk with the Tm & the steward said this is the final time he’s going to bring it to his attention. Maybe the next step is osha?If nothing gets results maybe time to call OSHA?
Grievance after grievance with 3 different stewards including calls to safety & still nothing done….Grievances can get the ball rolling in most cases. Last resort, of course.
Where would the contract violation be? Doors down and cones around the dock plates.Grievances can get the ball rolling in most cases. Last resort, of course.
