    Ok not talking Union, will talk about that cmf was a good place to work for a while, I'm not stupid if it was not good I wouldn't stay that long; but 3-4 years ago something happen, what I don't know exactly, but 3 1/2 years ago in dorval we had a major change in the admistrators an since then everything is going down.

    Lot of peoples say well go work somewhere else; I'm 54 an been working there for 17 years. Instead of quiting I'M trying to improve my job an working condition by staying there an the only way that I've found to do it is with Teamsters.

    May be for some persons it is not the best choice but so far I don't see any others options. :biggrin_2554:

    They have some nice looking trucks just don't expect the wheels to stay on going down hill, that's all.
    He bobtails cuz he lives there, I think he uses that as his personal vehicle and they have some brokers too.

    I have to say the best place I've worked is this new job I just started, pay is good, miles are good, people are good to work for and BS is minimal. Only been there two weeks but off to a good start which is a big improvement.
    I don't want to say the name cuz they're a small company only four drivers not hiring right now and I'm pretty sure they they could narrow down to who I am.
    don't want a brownie already :biggrin_25524:

    I worked there for almost two weeks, 5 days un-paid and another three days at half pay, doesn't quite fit the law but hey We are the law.
    They didn't like the fact I wouldn't help the "Trainer" hand bomb.
    Pay was only a second concern to that butt-head.
    It's "just me" and I have "a bad attitude".
    Yep and I'd still have a bad attitude if I had to work for that bunch a bungholesurfers.:biggrin_25522:
