It is too bad that they could not cite the contract article that permits Rank and File to voting on MRCOOs. I can't seem to be able to locate it.

Unbelievable that they would call the unmitigated ****ing disaster they have done to the west a success. After 9 years here I'm back on the extra board making at least $20k a year less. I'm pushing 60 yrs old in a rural area with less options or I'd be gone too.
Nobody above the terminal level knows ::shit:: about this industry. They hired ignorant losers to do their change of change of ops because they dont know how, and now that its wrecked they don't know how to fix it.

How simple minded these jackasses are. They cut the length of so many runs and wonder why they are so short handed. The miles the freight has to move hasn't changed but the number of people it now takes to move it has grown.

I'm with you guys but you forget about Reddaway, the Gen-X of the LTL bunch. Us Holland and Penn made money. Our models worked.
I'm hoping that someone steps in to buy us before the end but I don't see it. 20k+ working Teamsters have value but nothing else in the dumpster fire does. I'm just sick about this.

BTW where was the IBT when they did this to us in the west?
 
What's the next move?
1 Close Holland and New Penn terminals move the equipment to YRC?
2 Close YRC terminals move the equipment to Holland and NP?
You know they are not going to stay with the status quo....................
It's a shame they can not answer simple questions like "where are the x number of proposed line haul drivers going to run from this terminal?" all you get is a blank stare and told we don't know yet, well if you don't know where they are going how do you know you need 7 of them..........................................crickets..............

Nobody is going to buy Yellow with a negative $12 per share book value. There's nothing to buy.
