Popular Post Ezrider Posted March 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2018 that really takes some balls, im sure he was just full of himself thinking he was in the right as well. im not a big fan of unions i would assume take any of my issues personally to whoever i am working for and negotiate my own agreements, having a union represent you just adds way more hassles than its worth in my opinion 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/52754-attempted-carding/page/2/#findComment-394371 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyT Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 It Was in about 1993 and I had a drop deck leased to Cardinal transport, was somewhere in Pa I think and Myself and two other Cardinal contractors pull up to a job site with roof insulation.I was second in line and the first driver says they won't unload him because he's non union! Sensing a potential dilemma,I call my Cardinal agent Bob who is also my best friend, and he asks "don't you have a teamster card?" "Yeah but it's been expired for years! I say" Hide the year with your finger and ask if you can back in the other guys trucks!" They said ok and I did! What a bunch of nonsense!

Popular Post 68-f-model Posted March 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) Interesting incidents and some seriously arrogant union reps to try and force their way/influence on private property. Unions had a time and place but I think that those have for the most part have passed.

They want everything for doing as little as possible then act like little school yard thugs when they don't get their way. I agree. Union greed put many trucking companies out of business, steel mills out of business, and are the reason what should be a $10,000 car costs $30,000.

Popular Post 12V71 Posted July 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2018 Quote Back in 2003 a local Asphalt paving contractor (union shop) needed a scraper for a long haul cut and grade job. At the time I had a TS-24 Euclid and got the contract, as an owner/operator I was union exempt, the IUOE guys were cool with that and we got along just fine. BUT... some token woman teamster on the water truck had an issue and brought in Jimmy Hoffa's boys. It was all spelled out in the contract who I was and why I was there, but the job got shut down for a day while the thugs reread the contract over and over. Eventually reading comprehension prevailed. But those idiots were ready to have their people strike on that. Oh... wait the teamsters were pissed because a bunch of dump trucks couldn't have that job. Dump trucks can't grade and jump off the end of the fill sideways. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/52754-attempted-carding/page/2/#findComment-402779 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homestead was actually one of the better ones I loaded at, but I only loaded there once. Gary, In. was the worst, and Fairless Works was a close second, of the ones I loaded at. I think a requirement to work at US Steel was that you had to be an asshole, but that seems to be the case at a lot of steel mills. Armco, now AK Steel, was just about as bad.
