[QUOTE="10 point, post: 1531479, member: 52520"] Steady increases parallel and simultaneous growth with package and freight volume growth? Growth of bargining unit seems to have been because of overall volume growth plus the extra drivers put on in the last 20 months or so. I'd have to see true numbers to compare apples with apples because edd and probably Orion were introduced to reduce routes in each building and until lately the number of pkg car jobs in our building was reduced with drivers going out with more volume, more stops, and over 9.5s were out of control. I can't buy an across the board increase of ft drivers jobs because the company is generous. The 9.5 language is a clear indication that the company is wanting to become "more efficient" by abusing the ft drivers they still employ. The question remains: if the technology is being implemented that reduces the bona fide bargaining unit minus the volume growth then we are letting the company sell fools gold and we're either too lazy (complacent) to combat it or we just don't care because we all are not affected. That is the evidence that demands a verdict. [/QUOTE]
