Driver, if you don't have a problem with this arrangement...then you are part of what's wrong with the industry. Look elsewhere. Look anywhere for that matter. What a frickin' hosejob! Yep done the research... That would B any school/Co. Worth anything. I can afford it so as I said; some may have an issue w/ it. ColdFrostyMug: This thread was intended to share the individual Co.'s program particulars. To some, your comments may seem offensive as I'm sure your aware. As to being "part of what's wrong with the industry" - I , like many, are willing to put forth the effort and time to break into this industry. Even if I'm not on the clock at $22.00/hr. behind an accident or weather related incident, you wouldn't hear me whining. Judging by your attitude, if you didn't make that 22.00 / hr, (which I'm sure most a wondering if you really received it) we'd all be listening to you whining on the frequency.

CFM thinks unless you are a LTL driver and in the Union you are not a Truck driver. Sorry I could not put up with all the BS the Union does. When only a laborer can move a piece of lumber so the forklift can load the truck and it takes 3 hours for his A$$ to get off his COFFEE BREAK THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG.

:roll: Aaaaaa Yes... :wink: Thank you for clearing that up for me... I have nothing against Unions; just the people that forget how they got started and look down their nose at others. It must be hard to board his truck... Doesn't his pointed head get in the way?

CFM do not EVER ATTACK MY FATHER OR CALL HIM A SCAB. He did what he had to so his WIFE AND KIDS had a roof over their heads food in their stomachs and the bills paid. The strike benefits at the time were 20 bucks a week that would not even feed my family at the time for 2 days. When you take off the rose colored glasses and realize how much :dung: :dung: your beloved union is feeding you maybe you will wake up. Look at the AUTO INDUSTRY ASK A GM OR FORD RETIREE IF THEY LOVE THEIR UNION RIGHT NOW THEY JUST GOT SOLD DOWN THE RIVER AND ALSO ASK ANY CF driver if they love the Union sorry CF is gone. Just looking at the waste in the Teamsters makes me want to PUKE. Why in the hell does a union need 15 VP's and all the other crap paying them 200K or better a year my dad still gets the magizine so we see what they get paid. Hoffa Jr is no better than his dad in fact probaly worse when it comes to being connected to the MOB and will end up killing the Teamsters.

Very sorry 4 the delay.
I can not recommend Central Refrigeration Service, Inc. to even my worst enemy…. Extremely un-professional, disingenuous; continually bordering on inappropriate and some times criminal behavior. DOT has no clue of how dangerous some of their poorly trained employees direct equally poorly trained drivers, to commit serious safety violations; all in the spirit of saving money. This company changes policy at will; regardless of what they have committed to previously. In short…. You are less than “just a number” ! More to come… W/ evidence. |
