Yellow freight crying broke again.

Late 2000’s yellow management approaches teamster we need concession. The give back was 15% of our wages and we couldn’t claim our dependent YRC on our income tax fucking vulture capitalism and pension contributions went to .25 on the dollar. The cause Dubya bush depression and the YRC CEO Dollar Bill who when discharged received millions in compensation yet in then in the years 07 and beyond Dollar Bill was trying to build yellow into an international shipping corporation Asia South America Europe. Should stayed in Overland Park Kansas Dorothy.

Now we enter into the 2013 decade the teen years new contract same M.O.U. Short for Jimmy Hoffa the trump of teamster president agreement that the union members get sodomized by junior Hoffa and YRC freight which stands for yellow roadway corporation and the contract It barely passed. So now I’m thinking dam so I ended up staying now we’re in late teen years 2018 new contract same M.O.U. Corporate welfare out of my pocket the contract doesn’t pass. Voted down by a large percentage of the labor force im thinking cool side note day I voted I was drunk yea I used to drink.

So we’re taking a cab from bar to poll place friend and I we tip the cab driver really well to wait. I walk into vote then transport us back to the bar room and the YRC union leaders are like hey you gotta take your ballot back in that room to vote. I laughed I said I’ll vote my ballot no right here and dropped it cuz those union leaders were trying to shove this third welfare contract down our locals throat. The business agents for YRC hated me I detested them I’d call them plantation bosses for their masters Hoffa junior and corporate management.

So ok the contract fails panic amongst the Slave owners Hoffa junior saying YRC gonna go under. Great shoot this bitch in the head I told management once this place YRC is like a brother and sister fucked and had a kid. I felt this is how capitalism supposed work not welfare capitalism. They have a second vote and mysteriously it passed.

I then went to Buster Brown put application in online got hired within week five years now. And you know we may walk and strike oh well that’s how it is supposed to work. Like we did back in 94 yet my point is let yellow die working there you’re basically no better off than a non union LTL Carrier as in below dollar pay to no pension.

I even had dumb asses say look we still don’t pay for our medical when I still worked there. Yea our medical is covered by our union dues I’d say you dumb fuckers you’re giving minimum $150 week in givebacks and still paying union dues.

I’m very pro labor I started in 87 was thinking ok I’m gonna hang it up at 63 once boys through university. Not sure now at age 57 with losing Liz.

Yet I’ve been screwed by yellow when I worked for Preston 151 and then Roadway proper. And the union LTL pond is not very big and I’ve seen a lot of union carriers go under Preston was one of them. Yet I’ll say this from actually working for them the most efficient union LTL company I ever turned key for was Roadway. Terminal were paid off pension fund was paid into Roadway was always in the black.


Roadway was lean they had a formula and it worked example cut times if that trailer is due to close 22:00 22:02 doors rolled down it’s getting hooked no waiting on freight Roadway was customer service yellow hold your freight hostage. Another example of yellow stupid and I was in on management decisions I’m at our Yonkers terminal hooking empty pups take to Brooklyn. And before I left Yonkers a road driver I knew came rolling in from Brooklyn with an empty set of trailers.

Or on a Sunday dispatching 22 drivers 450 miles to North Carolina terminal with all empty wagons all sets that’s 44 trailers going south. And I was on that hey I’m following orders got called work. And the Carolina terminal didn’t need the trailers nor the power the tractors so you had 22 guys laying in hotel getting paid after 14 hour’s sitting around waiting on a call on Monday total management incest in thought and it that way of thinking was system wide.

Here at brown they are efficient yet not freight its packages loaded into those trailers anything under 75 pounds. So yea I’m rambling like I said bad punctuation and dyslexia but my point it isn’t the workers both labor and lower management the mangers gave back 7% of their wages. The problem is the investors and Wall Street the CEO.
