When Yellow and Roadway merged, it was two companies that did the same job, so all jobs were redundant. In this merger, Con-Way is a supplement to...
What words did I use wrong? It's still a 12 hour day no matter how you slice it.
The local Holland terminal has a "hiring drivers" sign hanging up front for about 2 years. The drivers I run into don't seem happy with the job or...
15 minute pre trip, 15 minute post trip, 30 minute break, and 11 hours driving adds up to a 12 hour day.
I work at Con-Way, and hostling is logged as driving per company policy. By doing so, they limit hostling to 12 hour days. I can't imagine they'd...
My terminal is interviewing drivers. We're busy now, but I'm not sure what happens when we slow down for winter.
There are a few guys at my terminal that went thru the Con-Way school. I don't know the details of the school, but if you can get in, do it. I got...
I'm just going off what he told me. He works there, and said no OT until over 50. Good for Dayton drivers if it is 40.

Con-Way is doing well. At my terminal, we hired 2 guys and plan on bringing in a few more.
Con-way allows transfers. We just had a guy that started in our terminal transfer to Vegas, and recently transferred back. You keep company...
You really need to think about LTL. I'm pretty happy at Con_way. All the major holidays paid off, plus the Friday after Thanksgiving, and...

Same here.
Correct me if I'm wrong, R&L doesn't pay over time. OD and Dayton don't pay until 50 hours. Those are three obvious places that drivers can "get...
He said what I was going to say. Changing the way things work just to make a change seems foolish. Despite all of the "scary union stories"...
It's a no brainer, but I haven't seen a single person answer the question. How will the union improve my job? What facts am I dodging? You said...
