THEY ARE STILL WITH THE BE THOU EVERY SO LOYAL NOT REALLY REALIZING THAT THE PEOPLE THEY ARE LOYAL TO DON'T GIVE A RAT'S ASS ABOUT LOYALTY. THESE ARE NOT THE DAYS WHEN TEXAS WAS CALLING THE SHOTS.

THE STRONG HAS TO KEEP IT REAL AND STAND UP AND VOTE A RESOUNDING YES FOR UNION!

Conway executives are just like politicians. They are one and the same. They promise you the world, then they get you to vote for them,then after you vote for them they go back on there promises. They don't deliver what they promised they would. And guess what,you don't get your vote back. Its to late. There in office living a life of luxury because the people voted them in then they don't deliver what they promised they would. Yes they lie to get what they want and there's nothing you can do after the fact.......but its before hand when we can do something and that is don't believe the bullshit that there telling you. The union busters and Conway executives are politicians. There telling you what they need to tell you to get you to vote no. Whatever they promise won't come true and they don't care. If you vote no they win and that's all they care about. Its time for the people to know this to understand this,that people in power will lie to your face to get what they want. Ignore these busters. They have there own interests in mind not yours. A vote for yes means better pay,better benefits,a pension,job security and respect. Why would anyone vote no to these. Little by little we the people,we the workers can change Conway to benifit us. For far to long the Conway big dogs have taken and taken and taken for there own selfish gain. Enough is enough. The time is now. Vote yes for a better future for yourself and your families.Vote yes!

So today I got called to the side by management and was told that I needed to stop telling people to read the Employee portal.(I tell my coworkers to look in the portal so they can read how much money Conway makes or what there doin with all the money that we the workers make).I told management Employees should know where to find Information about the company we work for.Ther respond was well not everyone wants to know or should know what the company does.So their you go my Conway Coworkers The thugs and their soldiers want to keep us uneducated so we can't complain of how they spend all the millions and they can controls us.But we are all sick of being treated like where stupid,cowards,or united.But my friends if management is calling me to the side and sending out union busters that means Conway is feeling the pressure from us uniting.So come on everyone lets unite,lets make this BROTHER AND SISTER HOOD NATIONS WIDE.LETS MAKE OUR DREAM REAL OF BEING TREATED LIKE HUMAN BEINGS AND MAKE THEIR NIGHTMARE HAPPEN.BY UNITING AND VOTING YES ALL ACROSS THIS NATION.YOU CAN DO IT MIAMI,MANCHESTER,HARLINGER AND ALL OTHERS WHO WANT TO BE TREATED WITH DIGNITY AND RESPECT.WE ALL NEED A BETTER LIVING,WE EARNED IT,WE MADE Conway what it is.LETS VOTE YES.

Here is some info about how unity works with the union.We all know UPS is a large company.So when Conway managment or the union busters tell you that having a union isnt worth it and that because of the union companies go broke or people loose their jobs ask them.So why is UPS so successful?and they have a UNION.///The Division serves more than 250,000 members throughout the United States who work at UPS and UPS Freight. UPS is the single largest employer in the Teamsters Union. The Division is responsible for ensuring that management abides by the UPS and UPS Freight National Master Agreements. The UPS contract is the largest collective bargaining agreement in North America. Under the direction of General Secretary-Treasurer Ken Hall, the Division represents UPS package car drivers, air drivers, feeder drivers, part-time loaders, unloaders, sorters and clerks. It also represents more than 12,000 UPS Freight drivers and dockworkers, and 1,300 workers at UPS Cartage Services Inc.

This is what unions do for their members...........................“The company erred in their
judgment. What they did was
unjustified and we’re fortunate that
the arbitrator agreed,” Local 495
Business Agent George Park said.
“We thought we would prevail all
along, and we did.”
In February, an arbitrator ruled
that there wasn’t a sufficient case to
fire Matelko, and ordered that the
company make him whole. After
eight months off the job, Matelko
returned to work at the Ryder
Rancho Cucamonga location in
March, and will receive full back
pay and reimbursement for his
COBRA payments.
“I’m thankful to the Local and
the union lawyer for protecting
my rights,” Matelko emphasized.
“I really appreciate all the eff orts
of Pat Spangler, the steward at
Riverside, and the union leadership
– George Park, Rigo Tirado and
Bob Lennox – for putting their
heads together.”
The Menifee resident admits
the time off was stressful but he’s.dedicated group of employees who
stood up and acted like Teamster
members.The way the guys stood
by him was impressive.”
adding, “This happened to
me but let it be an example to
non-union employees. If you’re not
represented by a union, you’re really
in trouble.”...
At conway they tell you.You have 2days to get your shit.Then they walk off the lot.

THIS IS THE KIND OF GENIUS MR LEMKUHL WE CALL THE TOP GUY. THIS GUY DON'T EVEN HAVE THE BUSINESS SAVVY TO KNOW BEFORE THE ENTIRE COMPANY ERUPTS LET'S COME TO THE TABLE & RESOLVE THESE ISSUES.HE WOULD RATHER SPEND MILLIONS TO KEEP DOING LOW DOWN ANTICS. HE'S NOT A SUCCESSFUL LEADER. YES HE HAS HIS GENERALS (DIRECTORS & TOY SOLDIERS MGMT) & THEY WILL PROBABLY CONTINUE TO BE DECEIVED UNTIL THE END. PEOPLE I WISH WE COULD GO BACK TO THE OLD DAYS OF PLENTY BUT IT WON'T HAPPEN UNLESS WE COME TOGETHER & VOTE YES. TO UNION & TO THINE OWN SELVES BE TRUE. WE ARE THE NEW GENERATION, THE ENFORCERS VOTE YES TO UNION & NEVER GO BACK!

Union Busting

A derogatory term for the attempt to reduce the power of a labor union, or an organization designed to protect worker interests. Union busting generally is intended to allow employers to force employees to accept less favorable terms or working conditions. Union busting may involve espionage, hiring of scabs (or workers who agree not to abide by a union agreement), lockouts, or even violence. See also: Anti-unionism.

The "revised dropped trailer video". Whata joke. Theyve all of a sudden had a come to jesus moment. Oh so now they care about our jobs and dont want to fire us for stupid shit. Ok whatever. If people buy this nonsense its ashame.It goes to show u that conway can do what they want to. They don't have to fire us for stupid shit.....but they want to......they could give us a pension again like the old days .....but they don't want to.......they could give us better health care coverage......but they don't want to.....its all about them and what THEY WANT....and why do they not want these certain things. Because not giving us these things makes the greedy basterds have more. Its all about them. Revise the dropped trailer policy all u want, everyone knows u still don't give a shit about us workers only yourselves. Vote the union in. Its yes to the union. Its the only way to deal with these corrupt thugs.

Anonymous said...

THE ONLY REASON THEY ARE REVIEWING THE DROP TRAILER POLICY IS BECAUSE IT HAS BE COME A LIABILITY FOR THE COMPANY NOT BECAUSE THEY CARE ABOUT US THE DRIVERS ,IN MOST OF THE CASES THE FIFTH WHEELS ARE DEFECTIVE AND GOD FORBID THERE IS A DEATH INVOLVED THEY WILL BE FULLY RESPONSIBLE BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF MAINTENANCE TO THIS OLDER TRACTORS FIFTH WHEELS. DON'T BE FOOLED , EVERY MOVE THIS GUYS MAKE IS TO COVER THEIR OWN ASS . DO YOUR OWN INVESTIGATION IN YOUR SC , AT LEAST HERE IN MIAMI THE FIFTH WHEELS WHERE BAD AND THEY STILL FIRED THE DRIVER.

If you need to post something, how about making sense, idiot. Have you ever heard of capitalization and punctuation marks. Unlike New Hampshire, Miami will prevail.We are strong and firm in our resolve. Already we have been subjected to the lies of the union busters and they have lost all credibility in our eyes, Sure, they will turn a few but we understand you can't win a battle unless the playing field is leveled. Each of us alone is no match for the blue giant, however, together and united, we have a chance to succeed. We ALL want to see Conway become the leader in the LTL freight industry and we will work hard to earn everything we bargain for. This is not a fight AGAINST Conway but a fight for our own lives, our own well-being and our own families. We have suffered long here in Miami and we feel no malice towards the company. We only want what we deserve. So, for all you morons, who can't write a complete sentence, we are NOT ignorant and we are NOT lazy. We work hard every day and we just want to be recognized and respected for all we do.
