    There was a lot of confusion in Chicago as to what is going on as far as what you are voting on and what you were told by Mr F..

    Obviously they can't shut down Chicago but this third vote is about shutting the whole system down not just Chicago. There is no confusion on that..right?

    Right no confusion. This vote will not save YRC either way it goes. Joe your the only guy that believes a yes vote will push this company forward. Chicago PLEASE stand your ground on this vote for the 3rd time, your all that's left of the Teamsters. Thank you.

    Is the company name painted over? If so they are up for auction. I have seen close to 100 sold off in Toledo.

    YRCW will be closing its largest facility in Chicago Ridge on Monday, doors will be locked! This former Yellow terminal was once the largest facilty in the network. Rumor is Walmart Inc will be purchasing the lcation and tearing it down to build a Sam Club. Happy holidays YRCW employees!

    You're right on that.

    If they make it past the second quarter of 2010 I'll be shocked.

    It will take that long to sell off the assets and leases. They are definately on the death throws.

    Owning three but individual trucking companies competing against each other! Which one was actually supposed to succeed? Answer NONE of The ABOVE!

    No brainer, this was a World Class Business Model blunder.
