[QUOTE="Backlasher, post: 3770345, member: 6276"] To be honest, the rail is more efficient, cheaper and creates less road hazards. Plus, the rail might be a different union, but they're our Union brothers and sisters. I get it that Teamsters wants to create more full time jobs, but let it be more full timers on our end. Combination split inside jobs or 22.3's, more full time package driver's, air drivers,etc. We really already have enough semisson road and the rail is more efficient cross country and cheaper while supporting Unions, not trading a union job between Unions. Basically we're talking about stealing work from the union rails for less effective distributions. Don't forget, the Union rails would back us in Strikes and other union fights. We should do the same. The switch between rail to feeders actually will damage a fellow Union Organization which is self defeating in the long term. [/QUOTE]
