    T force is failing hard, its still punishing hard workers and rewarding the lazy, doing everything the ups way. Ive been here since 2003, the motor cargo days, i saw it all happen, and its happening again. Our leadership, the guys T-force put in charge, are the same out of touch, arrogant upsers.
    So here I am, watching myself getting thrown under the bus again. Watching the new hires make more than me, with a sign on bonus! Way to boost morale! I did't get paid for last week, may not get paid at all before Christmas.
    Meanwhile, ALL of my terminals forklifts have 20,000 hours, we have not a single extra truck. We are forced to use this ridiculous ECD that is so slow and inaccurate that we need extra employees to make up for the incompetence.
    T force is trying very hard to make as many enemys as possible, just like UPS!

    Why have you not been paid? Is it just you that has not been paid or is it everyone?

    Sometimes the best thing one can do for themselves is quit, and move to another job.

    It's worth considering.

    I probably will end up quiting, but first ill try and save this company. I have faith in TFI, but they don't realize how inept the management is, and how disgruntled thier employees are. That's the point of this post.

    Again, have you not been paid or you have not been working?
    If they are missing payments you need to leave yesterday. If a company cannot pay it's employees there is no coming back from that unless management is super good. And well, we know your opinion of management.

    Worked, not paid, and not the first time. We have had constant payroll problems, payroll grievances are extremely common. I like my local managment, but they basically have no authority.

    Being a "retiree" of Overnite, the talk that I hear is just the opposite. I keep up with all the "gossip" and all I have heard is that they have more freight than ever before and the employees here in Waynesboro are very happy. This is the first bad report that I have heard or seen.

    Now on UPS, my son is a feeder driver and he is very happy making almost $100,000 per year with 4 weeks vacation and all benefits paid, home daily, Mon-Fri. #####, ##### and ##### some more, it comes with trucking.
