Greg & Neil
In your latest propaganda letter ( Guarantees ) handed to us last night you state that the union has spread negative rumors about our future. We want to know what the FUCK you talking about?? The union has never spread negative rumors, they have never promised anything but the chance to negotiate a CONTRACT. Something BOTH of you have with Conway Freight Inc. Why are you trying to deny us that right ???
The union has never told us that the company will fire us, lay us off, or disciplined for supporting or opposing the union, in fact they informed us that we a PROTECTED by federal rights to organize a union at Conway. The only threats of firings, discipline or layoff are coming from your management team and the non-union supporters they have sent to spread that fear and intimidation.
We can all laugh at you for this one! YOU can guarantee that we will be treated with DIGNITY AND RESPECT !!!! You come in from the marble palace for a few days and know what the daily operation of our service centers are ??? We all know that these morons running our centers DO NOT treat us with DIGNITY AND RESPECT !!!
We are glad you "guarantee" that the wages YOU promised the DRIVERS will be implemented in 2015. But why weren't the dock workers included in that wage increase? And why didn't you guarantee that our hours are not going to be cut, or our health care won't be increased ??? You think we don't know that you can guarantee all these things but it's not a legal binding contract!!! Why didn't you have it notarized ??? We know the bullshit your trying to feed us!
And WE WILL ALL be glad to pay union dues for the DIGNITY AND RESPECT you claim we have now.
Can YOU guys guarantee that you will still BE EMPLOYED by Conway Freight Inc. to abide by your signed guarantee ?? Your signatures won't mean shit if you guys get fired or choose to take your golden parachute! Why don't you save the ink and negotiate a good contract with the Teamsters and put those signatures in a TEAMSTER CONTRACT!
A CONTRACT is a legal binding document that you can't back out of regardless if you guys get fired, a contract will stand regardless.
A CONTRACT will guarantee that you will treat us with DIGNITY AND RESPECT!
A CONTRACT will guarantee that our wages will not be taken away and will only increase from the 27.10 that you have GUARANTEED!
WE WANT A UNION CONTRACT

I'm glad a new enforcer aka supervisor is coming to USB to help Pat make USB a living hell. Hopefully he busts a lot of drivers balls so more drivers can get onboard and vote YES!
p.s good job Pat
Why are the mechanics not included in this so called guarantee ? We already know you don't value the mechanics or the maintenance department. we already know that you could subcontract out all the maintenance department s work. I just think you should consider the cost of subcontracting out all the maintenance department s work. The mechanics deserve respect and a good contract also. Just my two cents.
That's right on the money brother!
Greg and kneel we gonna walk you off the property!
The south will rise again!
YEEEEE HAW!!!!
Yeah. Good luck with Mike Corbell. He was and probably by far the most confrontational person i have ever met in my life and here at ULA. He has so many complaints that have gone to corporate and HR. He has gotten in so many fights with employees, Supervisors and sub-service drivers. Cops have been called on numerous occasions. Yet he gets promoted to FOM! That just shows where Conway keeps dropping the ball. If Assholes had a country, he would be the President! With That said, Mike Corbell goes way back With Patrick. They used to work at Yellow together. Unfortunately Patrick will have his back. Im just happy he's no longer at ULA! Good Luck USB your gonna need it.
So ive noticed alot of attacks on Lehmkuhl.You guys realize his just a very well payed face.Does any one remember Lebri.But before I get to him Lets start pointing fingers at the real problem.ITS us we the Employees let this happen.Ive been with Con-way for about 6years when I started at Con-Way they TOLD me what my pay and benefits was goin to get,Now the first thing is and I dont know about the rest of you but I was TOLD,Not given a contractor or anything in writing about my compesantion,When I asked for something in writing about my compesantion I was told the company doesnt give out anything in writing that everything was in their books.Well I took the job,About a year later BANG wher told that the company is taking our PAY,VACATION,CUT OUR BENEFITS AND CHANGED RULES ON HOW EARNED VACATION TIME AND HOW WE LOOSE VACATION IF WE DONT USE IT.But they said it was to help the company But THE FUNNY THING WAS THAT NO ONE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS, AT THE SAME TIME THEY TOOK FROM US THEY HAD LEBRI COME IN GIVE HIM 5MILLION SIGNING BONUS ON TOP OF HIS OTHER COMPENSATION, AND WHAT DID HE BRING!!!!HAS ANY ONE HEARD OF LEAN??THEN Con-Way who CUTS our COMPENSATION GOES OUT AND SPENDS MILLION AND MILLIONS ON A RACE TRUCK AND CAR AND ON TOP OF THAT THE THIEVES ON THE TOP GIVE THEM SELVES A BONUS AND A RAISE,BUT AGAIN NO ONE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS!!!I FOR ONE HAD A BIG,BIG PROBLEM WITH IT(I see on the internet others tried to get Unionized but there wasnt any SUPPORT) SO I TOOK ACTION WENT TALK TO THE UNION AND THEIR LAWYER,I EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOIN ON OFCOURSE SINCE I DIDNT HAVE I CONTRACT AND EVERYTHING WAS IN Con-Ways Books THEY COULDNT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNLESS I GOT SUPPORT FROM MY COWORKERS,So some of the Union reps went to talk to some of the Employees,As per the union rep no one has a problem with whats goin on and some people dont even realize how bad Con-Way has taken advantage of them.But then out of the blue Lebri supposedly quits Con-Way.So here we are now,Its just been getting worse Most all of the Coworker that where their when I started ither been fired or have found Union jobs,and I hear from them on how much better it is away from Con-way.Then i Finally heard that people realized how Con-Way has been taking advantage of its Employees and how their all FED up.IM SO GLAD TO SEE MY NEW COWORKER STAND UP FOR THEM SELVES AND NOT WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A BUNCH OF STUPID MONKEYS WHO ARENT SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN THERE BEING USED BY A BUNCH OF GREEDY PIGS.FINALLY THE TABLES HAVE TURNED AND ALL Con-Way EMPLOYEES HAVE UNITED TOGETHER AND WE CAN ALL BRING A BETTER PLACE TO WORK AND BE TREATED LIKE HUMAN BEINGS.As for Lehmkuhl his just like Lebri,Look in your EMPLOYEE portal look in there and you will see 9 0r 11 names who REALLY RUN Con-Way,This people are the once That have TAKEN from US SO MUCH,So they can make THEIR MILION AND MILLIONS OF OUR HARD WORK AND WITH LEAN THEY ARE MAKING EVEN MORE MILLIONS THATS WHY Con-Way has BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND WHAT HAVE WE GOTTEN SAY IN THE PAST 10YEARS FROM Con-Way.I for one in the time ive worked at Con-Way have gotten more poor.SO ITS TIME FOR US TO GET SOMETHING FOR ALL THE HARD WE PUT INTO MAKING THIS COMPANY THE 3RD BEST LTL.WE NEED TO UNITE AND BECOME A FORCE OF ONE.WE WITH THE SUPPORT OF EACH OTHER CAN CHANGE IT FOR OUR BENEFIT..LETS STAND TOGETHER WITH THE HELP OF THE UNION WE CAN HAVE A REAL WRITTEN CONTRACT THAT CANT BE CHANGED WHEN EVER THE GREEDY PIGS WANT MORE MONEY.VOTE FOR BETTER WAY OF TREATMENT AND LIVING..VOTE YES..ITS UP TO US TO VOTE...SO I WISH EVERYONE BETTER LIFE..JUST REMEMBER ITS WE WE WE CAN CHANGE IT..WE VOTE YES..ps sorry about the spelling.
That $.35 was a joke.
I just wanted to say that it doesn't take a shitty manager and bully supervisor to motivate to join union. Here in Orlando, I can't say a bad thing about any of them from the SCM down to all of the FOS. They do treat me with dignity and respect, and this is a great place to work. BUT, I am not a fucking idiot sheep who will sit by and let the greedy corporate management of this company keep throwing me their scraps and not offer me a seat at the table. It is fucking embarasing that I work for a billion dollar company that pays Greg Lamekule over 8 million dollars a year, and they don't pay OT after 8, no pension, bottom of the toilet insurance, and constantly comes up with safety and work violation policies to keep me in a constant state of fear of getting fired. Only sheep would put up with this treatment. I am a man. My vote is YES. C'Mon So Cal. Make us proud Thursday. Get of all fours and stand together and let's walk like men.
We signed our cards here. We are the majority. Our petition and vote is coming, and we got each others backs.
I'm glad Mike Corbel is coming to USB he will help us turn some peoples minds and vote yes. He was a douche bag with all the USB drivers in FAC. He's goal is probably to fire as many drivers as possibly before USB goes union.
ALL TRUE STATEMENTS
Wow brother I commend you, because when you really look at the entire picture its about us employees and what we have earned, deserve & what will keep our household functioning.. Very few employees can say positive statements about their scm mgr and fos's. This is a culture company who inspire & back up negative behavior in leadership (THESE ARE THE VERY WEAK SCM'S,FOM'S & FOS'S). HAVING A UNION WILL HELP WEED OUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T REALLY MANAGE & HAVE NO LEADERSHIP SKILLS. YOU'RE RIGHT YOU CAN BE A GREAT LEADER WITHOUT HARASSING & THREATENING GROWN ADULTS. DOUG & GREG ARE POISON TO CON-WAY & THEY NEED TO GO NOW. VOTE YES FOR UNION, VOTE YES FOR A POSITIVE CHANGE!
THOSE R THE SAME REASONS THAT WE IN LAREDO,TX LLA WENT UNION.THERE WERE ALSO PEOPLE THAT DID NOT SIGN A BALLOT FOR THE UNION BUT STILL VOTED YES BECAUSE ALSO THEY WERE FED UP WITH MANAGEMENT.SO WHEN IT COMES TO VOTE JUST VOTE YES,DOES NOT MATTER IF U SIGNED A BALLOT OR NOT JUST VOTE YES TO HAVE A BETTER FUTURE FOR U AND UR FAMILY.WE R BETTER TOGHETHER.

Let's get everyone involved, drivers, dock workers, mechanics nation wide. We all work for the same people and put up with the same bull shit. We need each to get this done but if we stand together we can get this done. Union yes.
Pat and him have a pension why can't we have one.
yes it was, it was more of an insult than anything else.
I have posted before about mechanic.In the shop i work we had a meeting with the director of maintenance.According to Conway wher not that important so why should they spend more money on giving us a raise.were just a big expense to them so basically if we dont get the unions into the shops dont expect any respect or money from ConWay.All wher goin to get is empty promises and get ready because if your hungry for bullshit wher goin to get alot of that.ofcourse in my wher getting fed alot of bullshit already.WITH THER BULLSHIT SRT TIMES AND SWI INSTRUCTION.BUT WHEN THEY CAME OUT WITH THER CRAP SYSTEM DID ANYWHER THER DID THEY SAY WHERE GOIN TO PAY YOU MORE...HELL NO THEY DIDNT ALL I HEAR IS YOU FOLLOW THE SWI AND BETTER MEET THE TIMES OR YOUR OUT OF THIS SHOP AND CONWAY.BUT HEY THEY SAY THEY DONT THREATEN THE EMPLOYEES.BUT TO ME THAT SOUNDS ALOT LIKE A THREAT.BUT SINCE WE DONT HAVE ANY ONE TO BACK US UP WHER ALWAYS GOIN TO GET THAT.SO IF WANT A CHANGE WE NEED TO STAND UP TOGETHER AND UNIT LIKE THE DRIVERS AND DOCK WORKERS AND GET UNITED AND ALSO BECOME OF THAT STRONG UNION FORCE THAT EVERYONE IS GOIN FOR...WE NEED TO GET THE UNION INVOLVED IN THE SHOPS TOO.LETS NOT THIS opportunity passes by or will alway. Be NOT IMPORTANT TO CONWAY..
UNITY WILL CHANGE CON-WAY, FEDEX AND ANY OTHER SLAVE DRIVING COMPANY.LETS ALL STAND UP TOGETHER STAND STRONG FOR THE WELL BEING OF ALL WORKERS..UNITY WILL BRING A BETTER WORKING NATION..LETS BRING DOWN THIS GREEDY CORPORATION AND SPREAD THE WEALTH TO ALL OF US THE HARD WORKING PEOPLE.

California, laredo brothers are praying for you. If God whit us, who can be against us?
I heard Lemkuhls favorite tv show is mr ed. I would think hes having a hard time watching a horse. teamsters just all in his head. xin
we're not alone!!
I can't believe that Conway is making a lot of money, and we're still driving the shitest fleet in the industry, to top it off, the company went ahead and refurbished some of those sterlings, I know they bought some cascadias, but there's not that many of them, just look at the competition, Saia, Old Dominion and FedEx Freight, these three carriers don't hesitate to buy good equipment to their drivers.
Mike Corbell already making an impact at USB in 1 week, everybody says his a jerk and a rat. His pat pet rat lol. His already changing some peoples mind about the union good job Pat that's just what we needed. Sign those cards USB!

THIS WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY ALL THE HARD WORKING BROTHERS & SISTERS OF CON-WAY.

I'm absolutely pro union and I understand that people are venting long held frustration here. And I appreciate that. But I can't help but feel like calling a union vote because you're mad at your employer is absolutely the worst reason to do it. Unions are supposed to be about cooperation and shared goals, shared revenue and common ground. If you call for union representation to "stick it" to a company then they become a punishment or a negative consequence and that's not their function. Just saying. Lets try to highlight the positives of a union and not the negatives.
UVC , USM AND USL IS JUST WAITING FOR ALL BIG FACILITIES TO BECOME UNION, LET'S VOTE YES USB!!!!
We need some help here at UKC not too many drivers here but is where all drivers come from different terminals every night , Good spot to have the union!!!!
I never felt that a union was needed after the first year. After witnessing change after change, nothing has ever been consistant. I read the writing on the wall miles away. I swear the company compensates at a flat $ figure. Drivers have lost, lost, lost! I swear conway has some of the best shrinks around. Trying make me think this is exceptable behavior of an employer to keep the company around. I've learned one thing, I don't trust con-way anymore. I hate being screwed around. I hate dock workers coming in and taking over the dock. Our jobs are slipping away. What's next?! I'm ready to fight for my existence, because at the rate things are going, Ryder or Penski drivers could start taking over ours for fraction of cost, just like subservice cutting into linehaul.
BROTHER WE HAVE TO STAND STRONG TOGETHER! HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT THE BLOG WHERE THE BLOGGER LIST ALL THE TOP NAMES WHO'S CALLING THE SHOTS? CHECK IT OUT, YOU CHANGE CON-WAY BY CHANGING THE CREW AT THE TOP. HOW DO YOU DO THAT YOU MIGHT ASKED, YOU VOTE YES TO UNION & THEN YOU TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO VOTE YES TO UNION. WHEN UNION COMES IN YOU SEE A WHOLE NEW CREW ATTHE TOP , ONE THAT WILL WORK WITH THE EMPLOYEES, CUSTOMERS & SHAREHOLDERS. NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL KNOWING HOW TO PERFORM YOUR JOB. NOT CUTTING ALL BENEFITS FROM THE EMPLOYEES TO SHOW A FALSE PROFIT ON RETURNS. BASICALLY ALL THEY DOING IS ROBBING US TO GIVE TO THEMSELVES & THE SHAREHOLDERS. AND LET'S NOT FORGET THEY HAVE PLENTY OF OUR HARD WORKING MONEY TO PLAY AROUND WITH PAID FOR BY
THE EMPLOYEES WITH US PAYING THE TAXES (TAX WRITE OFFS). THEY FEEL THEY ARE UNTOUCHABLE BUT WE CHANGE THAT ONE TERMINAL AT TIME BY VOTING YES TO UNION. .
C'MON MIKE CORBELL DO YOUR THING, KEEP PUSHING USB TO UNION LAND! WE KNOW BY YOUR HISTORY YOU'RE A HOT HEAD READY TO EXPLODE AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. C'MON SHOW USB WHO'S THE MAN.....USB IT'S YOUR TIME, YOU GOT THIS AND YOU KNOW VOTING YES TO UNION WILL END THIS CYCLE OF ABRUSIVE BEHAVIOR..LOOK TO THE MIAMI TERMINAL FOR YOUR INSPIRATION. YOU GUYS CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN GET YOUR YES TO UNION CARDS READY. NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS!!!
