[QUOTE="oakland, post: 52583"] I am well aware of the added service that can be offered to large shippers with this new service option. The company needs to bring this to the table with the union to hash it out. People don't realize that right now, the union and the company have been fighting over many items that were (so called) settled in the last contract negotiations. I'm not talking regular grievance stuff. The climate at the panels is not good. You cannot get a straight answer out of anyone on the company side, then if you do get an answer, they change their mind at the next meeting and deny they agreed to anything. Even with recordings and transcripts to back it up. The cat and mouse game has gotten so bad, nothing gets done. Meanwhile we take our routes out everyday and pay their paychecks. The bottom line is, do we want to fight all of the time and get nothing done or do we want to get along in a professional manner and prosper. The union is not feeling much love for the company right now, good paying jobs and all. Both sides need to work out an agreement that is "real" and won't end up in arbitration every other month. We need some trust reestablished in order to move forward and right now it is not there. [/QUOTE]
