Any “non-union” truck that pulls onto a union job site to deliver building materials or
heavy machinery. Usually they have an out of state
registration and license plates, predominately from New Jersey and driven by
illegal immigrants. Many times they may have a sleeper birth. They typically drive like maniacs because they get paid “by the load” at a very low rate. Companies love to use the “one pick, on drop” excuse for using them instead of the right UNION trucks.
The teamster was on a job site and seen a truck with a sleeper pull into
the other side of the job, so he asked the onsite steward, “hey jim, is that company a signatory?” Jim replied, “nah man, that’s
one of those one drop one pick
out of state scabbin-wagons!”
