Yellow | Who had the most seniority at your barn and where are they now?

Curious where the super high seniority fellows ended up? Had a guy at Roadway with a 1940s seniority date. Has to be dead by now. Still alive when I was laid off in 2009.

My seniority date is 55, ahead of Tri on the hog board.
Our oldest guy started in 52.
Tri wanted a 6 Atl turn bid, but he wouldn't have time to stop for lunch.

Well "Big Dave " had the most seniority at our barn , he had 15 more years seniority than anybody else and he proudly walked around the dock with that BIG Cowboy Hat , so we knew he was the "Hoss" of the dock !!

1990, the day PIE folded, The only job I ever had.
I'm too scared to steal and too lazy to work.

I thought my last day driving was in December 1989 when I left PIE. Little did I know then I'd come back to it in 2005 at Yellow just to help out.

Number 2 on our list was a Yellow pup that ended up at our Holland barn.Had been with company more than the rest of the board.

He buried the formula in a mason jar some 20 years ago somewhere……
