Let's face it Itallian style You can't blame the other carriers for the position that YRC is in, YRC low balled rates just to to keep freight on their trucks, do you think the other carriers are just going to stand by?? There is a fine line between proffit and loss, at one point you have to raise rates wether it be fuel,labor or other cost reasons.
I am an ex Roadway guy layed off in 2008, and along with a few other guys have found a comfortable home at Conway, Despite the rumors you here, or the miss informed imformation you may get about this place, I'm making more money, and not working myself to death over here, and yes we do pay for benefits over here and have for along time.
You may want to expand your ways of thinking and open yourself up to all posibilties, It may happen to you someday!!!! A job is only a job!, but when you have a family to feed,clothe and send thru college your likely to be a little more open when it comes to those matters. Good Luck!
