If your just a newbie, then you should do what most newbies do. Most newbies come in and listen so they can learn. They don't voice an opinion until they learn and know what's going on. If you do work for ABF you have not been here long enough to start the trouble that you are trying to start.
How are you losing customers? There is no work action in these regions. You need to learn how the contract operates with the supplements. There is a very high probability you are working under a supplement yourself.All the other regions agreed for splitting the week vacation. That's fine and dandy, but nooooo, the central region has to drag their knuckles causing our employer to Lose more customers jacking with this region. Sweeton and Tyson , our leaders may I add, advised us this is it. Wtf? A few bad apples always spoil the whole bunch. Damn, we're still the highest paid with bennies in the industry. Mcreynolds is the lowest paid ceo in the industry. Come on man! We're gonna get everything back in 5 years anyway with profit sharing. I worked for the cut throat non union carrier. I know what were up against. We can't compete without change! Plain and simple.
Until you have been officially brainwashed by the drones! Duh! Lol!
Starting to sound that way Stoney ! Good grief, the teamsters here are a reminder of how conway management talks to the employees. " shut up and don't say a word or your fired" " I'll have a moderator run u off if u don't think like me"
Schizophrenics anonymous...Schizo's supporting schizo's.Take this as an accomplishment Rolling62.
Abf didn't jam anything.!they made their case, and we voted! If we voted no, then we would be driving orange, blue, and green units. We made the right desicion.If we don't stand up together, what else will they take after the 7 percent and a weeks vacation. From what I see this is only the beginning. The company loves these newbies with that attitude, that way they can jam everything down their throat and the newbies will accept it.
Whos to say we wont be? And who cares!! Just by your answers you can tell your low level management & not even at ABF, still thinking Conway. You argued with everyone on the Conway board to the point they couldent stand you & now all but one on this board don't care for you.... Could anyone else see a pattern here....Abf didn't jam anything.!they made their case, and we voted! If we voted no, then we would be driving orange, blue, and green units. We made the right desicion.
If I were on my probation peroid I would ZIP my lip.
If I were only a casual I would sew my lip shut.
After probation call it as you see it....
Chicago Teamsters have always stood together and many a time held out and we all benefited from them.
Conway is not union, so the article doesn't apply. Dock hours are not driving hours so its not documented under DOT rules. I work at ABF anyway.Rollin 62 the NMFA states that you can not be on two senority lists also.
If indeed you are working two jobs, and you drive thru the gate you are subject to hours of service from both employers.
Something to think about... Don't let the wheel squeak to loud
You better check on that statement. Anything you work no matter where, it is counted against total hours of service for driving purposes.Conway is not union, so the article doesn't apply. Dock hours are not driving hours so its not documented under DOT rules. I work at ABF anyway.
Thanks for the heads up
