Well, if you didn't know I'm in a right to work state. So, no DHL in our local union. I'm up to 3/4 deck now. I'm aware of the rail road act. 4/5 now and lets see Jesse Helms from NC is the one we need to thank for placing Fed Ex in that category.OH boy! Now I'm back to a full deck!

We should implement a decline in membership clause into the bylaws. If the membership declines or you fail to organize you should be banned for running for an elected office. While were at it we should get rid of multiple salaries, no teamster official should receive more than 2 salaries.
, I thought you were a service company servicing me"
Everytime i lose an account, i go to the customer and ask why, did i do something. Their response is oh no we stayed with ups because of you but we cant take this anymore, and its always a complaint that i cant resolve like billing, bad customer service reps, and changing of their pick up times, Seems like management cant resolve it either. But they sure want us to turn in those sales leads for new business, heres an idea lets keep the customers we have for a while and then attempt to get more business. And you hit it on the head tooner.While I cant speak to much of the rest, although here in OHIO , my rival for my largest business, is the owners brother and he drives for DHL. They did unionize last month. I still get most of it, BUT.....when a business calls to complain how they used to get their delivery at 10am and are now on another truck and getting it at 1pm or later. What they get is crap from the phone center. It goes like this ...
Phone center says: "when we have changes in volume we have to cut routes"
Customer hears: so my business doesnt matter?
Phone cneter says "You will have to learn to adjust til our volume goes back up"
Customer hears "I have to adjust!!!!!
Driver says "if the IE dept would let go of some of the bogus numbers, we could do our job and use our knowledge to get the stuff to people who absolutely have to have it"
And now they worry about making pick ups in a 30 minute window? Heck if they dont quit with the crap of cutting runs and working everyone to the limit there wont be any pick ups to worry about.
I do understand change. Im not bullying against it but you cannot take a customer and tell them "hey we want your business, but you will have to take what we give ya, coz the yellow, green and purple will come in and gobble it up. We are in business to service them, they dont want to hear about our business and why we want to deliver them 3 hrs or more later, and what the heck, while Im here, get your pick up ready, I cant get back here in an hour. I run my self ragged trying to keep the business I have, coz the wolves are at the door and they are hungry.
Can you get them an application, looking for a customer oriented self motivated person to manage a $40 billion a year business, ps eskew doesnt know its for him yet.
I think the vendors would manage pas better than its being done now. It cant get worse can it?
