There's a slip in iCrew, loaded and ready.

The days are black, the whole category is under attack.

Thats it. Better than nothing I guess, but merely treating the symptom not the disease.

WS, OOBWS, and GSs are still going to be as gummed up as previously.

All you clowns* complaining about being called all night and batch sizes this and that obviously won’t be putting in for QS, right??

Bc the most important thing is not being called if you won’t get the trip and god help it if you are called at 3am for a trip that isn’t yours!

Maybe….maybe you jokers* WILL put in for QS and - drum roll - put your phones on DND if you don’t want to be bothered.

If you complain about being called for anything in the middle of the night, or complain about batch sizes then QS is clearly not for you, but I’m betting all you clowns* put in for them.

Down with AA. Make the QS concept the same for all slips and that treats the disease.

*clowns/jokers being anyone that has disagreed with me by claiming batch sizes and not being disturbed as their basis for not getting rid of AA across the board.

QS is exactly what I recommend but only for IAs. Call everyone, no AA.

I don't see how QS is a disincentive for the farmers to stop intentionally slowing trip coverage.

The destruction of trip coverage over the last few months has me personally on target to gross roughly 20% less than last year. I’m carrying my own water.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Thanks for admitting it's all about you.

But that's not how we get the best possible contract.

As I have stated in other posts, the exponential increase in AA is the most self harming contractual item I’ve ever seen used at scale. It takes from the middle and gives to the senior and junior.

And we are being asked to use it as leverage for PWA negotiations and not to make deals.
