WE need to stand together and stop this from happening. Good luck my fellow brothers.

And if you don't strike, what good would it be to haul it at a less rate than Non Union. It has been a pay cut with no raises or cost of living and it is going to last 3 years. With Prices sky rocketing around fuel cost my way of living is getting smaller by the day. JerseyDevil says: How much work will we loose to the none union companys ,if we do strike?

Why did they wait to the last min to announce this tactic? IF it goes thru you will see it is more like a 50% pay cut. They will promise you work you will never see and some work that will disappear. You will lose some traffic and then pick up new business at half rate. Non Union will have better rates then you. The Union will tell you on how they saves jobs. This is rapidly turning into a K-Mart job. Low pay, twice the work level and all the while trapped by a Pension you can't leave. Your with PTS Right?
