Keep living and enjoying life without bitterness, anger and malicious motives
 
We can't even get guys to vote on here when they already have their computer on their lap....how do you expect them to walk all the way to the mailbox and then pick up their phone and make a call and push extra buttons to make selections? I am tired just thinking about all that work! My Prediction.....No votes win by a slight majority and we don't make it to 50 percent and the contract passes anyway and then many employees heads blow up because they can't take it!

I'm afraid that in your scenario, if it's announced that the no votes prevail, some customers are going to leave. That is the biggest problem of all.

Wait until May 8th, when the 1st quarter earnings come out, and see what the daily bill counts are. YRC, and the regionals are usually around 40,000 bills per day on average.Many of the other LTL carriers on TB are saying freight levels are either flat,or slowed down in the last few months.

All the more reason to be concerned. I thought that I read that the company needed 5% growth per year to afford the increase in the contract.
 
But let's give millions in stock bonuses, stack freight so it wrecks the freight under it, let's not deliver it because the line haul arrives at 8a and they keep you to unload the freight and then you run out of time to deliver and let's not pick up the daily freight
When you have alienated so many customers it's not out of the realm that your volume is down. They went to other carriers. No one is coming on board when the business model is work the dock for 10 years before you get a day bid. Senior men can't afford to retire because the pension has been gutted. You guys are so giddy about that week of vacation and $8300 over 5 years that you have given a free pass to the neglect of the equipment pension and facilities. Voting no will send a clear message that the employees are tired of being the scape goats. We gave 10 years for these people to get it right and they didn't.

If we are going to make fun of a no vote let's make fun of a yes vote.....with a yes vote you won't have to worry about erectile dysfunction because you don't have any balls to vote for a fair contract. Each side has its pro's and con's....

Good luck all.
