thought I was settled in, now getting bumped out my position.

What kind of money are you looking for; realistically.

 

It should be in the contract. Whatever the contract says, goes. Complaining to management won't help in a union shop. My company (non-union) held a vote on matter and what was decided was that company seniority only counts for vacation time bidding. If someone moves from dock to CDL, or from CDL-B to -A, their seniority for bidding start times or runs gets reset to 0. That way, those "unfair" situations are avoided.

Of course, "unfair" depends on which guy you ask.

Ah the joys of a union.

 

0% turnover doesn't exist in this industry

 

Just 12 drivers? I bet that is a good gig. You might just hang around for a while. Things happen.

Edit: He decided to get his CDL? I wouldn't worry about it until he got his CDL and was on your truck.

Edit: Another thing, Mr. New CDL Holder won't have any snow driving experience, will he?

 

LTL side tailgating multi stop store loads 70-90k+

Truckload side 75% d/h 60-70k+. I get after it and did just over 73 last year.

Home weekends. Outstanding equipment, benefits and staff.

No micromanagement. We get our trips and get left the hell alone to do what we do.

Only 14% turnover, most of that retirements, says more about the company than anything.

 

Voluntary turnover can be at or close to 0% at a decent company. My place is like that. In one year, nobody leaves for greener grass. Guys retire, but that's it.
