@moreperfectunion.bsky.social It looks like Yellow Corp. has officially announced their closure (after employees showed up a week ago to find locked gates)... And they're pretty explicitly blaming the Teamsters union because surely, they did EVERYTHING they could, but those pesky Teamsters 😢/s
Screenshot of LinkedIn post from Yellow Corporation, announcing their closure. Post text: "It’s with profound disappointment that we are closing after nearly 100 years in business. Today, it’s not common for someone to work at a company for 20, 30, 40 years, but many at Yellow did. For generations, we provided solid, good-paying jobs and fulfilling careers. While IBT leaders may believe they won a battle against Yellow, it’s our employees and their families who have lost. We tried everything to work with IBT leadership and did all we could to save employees’ jobs. We are crushed by today’s announcement, yet we are grateful to our tens of thousands of employees who took care of our customers until the end. Yellow employees are professionals who, despite heavy hearts, worked diligently to clear the docks, deliver the remaining freight, and close our terminal doors one last time. It is with this same professionalism that we intend to wind down our business, maximize recoveries for cred
