I would never accept a job based on a certain bonus but I would stay at a company if the bonus plan met my expectations and I was happy with my paycheck. I consider a bonus a "perk". There are certain perks at my current job that keep me here. If they change so would my employment.

How was this bonus plan laid out to drivers and who was it laid out to and when? At orientation? Via a printed supplement handout? In the employee handbook? Via a Ominitracs message? Rumor in the driver's lounge in Laredo?
This post may or may not get my sympathy depending on this aspect. -
See, And that kind of stuff Bothers me(and it should you too).........Trucking companies doing what they want so the Officers/shareholders/owners don't lose out on their profit margins....
This is more than just "counting on" a bonus- sure they are Nice- But don't with-hold them from your employees because upper management didn't make their share...
See, ANOTHER reason I feel ALL drivers everywhere Need Representation- Arrow trucking just for example pulled similar noise in 2010- Let alone the hundreds of these carriers that "Use" drivers and Spit them out.
Its Gotta Change Folks- Start waking up. -
Im going to give some of you folks a great example on how you take car4e of your employees-
My Wifes father retired this Week from Mittal steel (Formerly LTV)-
Now-Read carefully- He was given a goodbye Party- AND he will be collecting 6 more weeks of Check for vacation accumulation (Thru feb 5) Which means he has another 6 weeks of Check coming without starting his car...
He will also be receiving $4500.00 mper Month in Pensions and His SSN- he is 73 years old
THATS How you take care of your employees at Big companies......
These Mega carriers that CAN afford these benefits simply Don't Because You guys don't Stand up for Whats right.
And they'll continue to do what they do- Do you really think after driving for JB Hunt for 45 years You'll get Anything for your loyalty?? Yeah..A Thank You (If your Lucky) And YOUR contributed 401k -

What they could have done is made up for the losses by providing drivers with a extra time off for home or perhaps a embargo on out of routing etc for those who chafe at restrictions etc. If you take something away, you need to find something to give back however small because you love the work force.
Or do you? It's not just about the money....thejackal Thanks this.
