[QUOTE="wizard, post: 168640, member: 8944"] Okay we used to be emery air freight red and green trucks bobtails part of cnf. Sometime in the early 90s they sold all the emery airlines planes to much to maintain them. Then they went to what i like to call rent a planes. Freight planes they paid to move our stuff. They sucked bad we used to not see our plane till 10 am if you were lucky you got off the dock by 11 and had to drive like hell to meet your am commitments. It got so bad they decided to rebrand us and call us menlo frieght forwarders, logistics, ocean etc. Then 3 years ago we came to work and were told ups bought us out. They built a big wall right down the center of the facility ups cartage on one side and supply chain on other side. Office folk who we worked with side by side as a team were now told they could not discuss business with us or vice versa. In the last year we have lost major major business. I barley do 10 stops a day. Some suit came in and said uhhh we made a mistake and the next thing I know they tore the wall down and made us one company again. took all the locks off the doors etc. What we do we move 150lbs and up pallets for industry military etc. mostly 25 foot bobtails with a few tractor trailers in the mix. Am, 2 day, defferred, and internaitional freight. We used to move a lot for gm plants but fed ex freight took all that from us. We joined our local union and it helped some we now get lunches but dont hardly have any customers when we were emery/menlo we had tons of work and worked months on end with no luch but did get paid for that time. Now I stare out the windsheild all day and hope things pickup someday cause I got a huge mortgage to pay and wonder if I will be out of a job soon Im 9th on a list of 17 drivers. [/QUOTE]
