    I see ABF is hiring for "city driver combined dock p+d" in my area. Is this basically a dock position and fill in when someone is out?

    I drive In and out of Pheonix, I see the massive ESTES yard, I heard running the extra boards you can stay out 6 days a week and do a 34 hour restart from the hotel, let us know which you go with and how they are.

    ABF is Union.
    All union companies are doomed.
    You’ll never get that BS pension they dangle in front of you to slave over.
    The Union bosses and the Democrat Politicians stoled all of the Teamsters pension fund money in the past decades.
    What makes you think they won’t in the future ?

    I’ve been thinking about it. I pulled doubles years ago. Hauling cars has been putting a real beating on me over the years! I spoke with folks at your barn a few years ago and it sounded good. I finally got my Hazmat put back on and would like to be home every day. Just not sure where to go yet.
