Experience with YRC ( includes YRC, New Penn, USF Reddaway and Holland

Good luck skinnytrucker.

 

I heard UPS Brown needs drivers so bad they might hire off the street. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

I'm still on the fence with going with YRC, I am with an out fit now that I bring home $1,100 a week. M-F, ok it's 65 hours but I don't mind working. I don't need the benefits since I'm retired from a City job. I'm just concerned with being "casual" and not getting enough hours and being able to pay the bills, heck being casual I can't even count on a dedicated start time in order to get a part time job to make up the difference, then if I did, I most likely will be right back doing 65 hours a week between two jobs. I worked for Yellow in the early 90's as a part time dock worker. So I know if the Road driver position is casual then I can't count on hours and days. The Term manager said he was loosing several drivers due to retirement but couldn't say if I would get hours......So do I stay where I am or go. My background is complete and all that is left is a Road test, I even filled out the tax forms already

 

I'd say stay where you're at. Seems like a decent deal.

 

I also agree that you should stay where you are. YRC isn't nearly as good as it once was.

 

UPS is stressful and way out of wack with union crap. Andy keep trying for ABF, If not go back to home ( YRC ).

OD still looks like a great alternative. Just bothers me about no OT after 8. We all know, it's very hard to do just 8 and skate.

Good luck and keep us updated.
