    Butler Transport paid me .31 cpm. I changed jobs to .42 cpm plus 25 dollar drop pay with 7 drops a day.

    I didn't have to strike to do it.

    If grandma doesn't get her milk cuz of a trucker strike, who do you think she will be mad at? That goes for all the general public.

    We have had good paying contracts with the same shippers for over 15 years and their operations run 24/7 . Why should we interrupt that service because some whiners can't find a suitable job ?

    this is not for the 1% of truck drivers making over 250K, it's for the drivers that want to raise the standards. If you are in a confort zone that makes you happy don't bother responding. Most of you wouldn't know how to raise hell or your living standards unless your drunk.

    So keep sitting on your fat ### and be content with your life, we all know truck drivers are lazy. I intend to give it a try and try to make it a little better for those of us who do want it better. This has nothing to do with a union, this is just a movement to send a message to the industry. If you happy with your pay, your company, etc... then just read this and keep on going, were not interested in you unless you have something to contribute.
