8 hour days

[Brownslave688]

As long as u let them know you will not be able to make the 8 hours, you have to give them the chance to send help, if they don't ,notify them you will be bringing truck back at 8 hours

No such thing as a real 8 hr day anymore...a route that when I started was 95 stops back in the day so a request load with a couple of pick ups taken off was 75 or so...now that same load for a request load is 95 with no pick ups taken off (fyi not my route)...and in my center if u threaten to bring work back the words out of their mouth is...r u quitting...and the union says basically grieve it but that doesn't help your current day...the next contract needs a lot more stronger language on this

Just called my supervisor to let him know this isn't an 8 hour day...trying to haggle with him...he said just file with it I don't care...gotta love that winning attitude!

I end the message of what I need help with to get my 8 hour. If dispatch doesn't answer within an hour I send another message saying I'm sheeting the packages as missed. I always get help then.

What about working as directed? Our local tells us to work then file! I have an important date coming up...my daughters daycare graduation (I know it's silly but she really wants me to be there because they're doing a performance and she's been working hard on it...I don't want to miss it!)...either way if they tell me to finish my day after i say I'm going to sheet everything missed, where do I stand on that?

Why risk it? Just take the day off.

Yep I think it's the central but may be just the local. I'm not sure.

No its the entire central. I have a copy of the ruling from the JAC. The company cannot discipline an employee for bringing work back on an 8hr day as long as they are maintaining the consistent level of performance.

We had a driver fired for bringing work back and was off 30 days. He won the case with full back pay!

10 hours is, the new triple time for me!

 

[willis]

Here it's 24 hours in advance. Here I also bring my truck back at 7.9 park it and go home. Doesn't matter if you're finished or 100 stops left.

wow

 

[willis]

You're allowed to do that? Nice!

im calling bull. but i guess you can pull that kind of stuff if you dont mind having atarget on your back.

 

[brownmonster]

I worked 4 days last week. All were under 8 hours. Gotta love it.

Nice to see....Guarantee, on your pay stub!

Not pulling anything. It's in the central region language. We don't get penalty pay for going over on an 8.0. Instead we being it back at 8

Stand up or shut up.
That panel decision is in stone and was upheld again in Ohio.
Some drivers have the backbone to enforce the contract.
We appreciate you.

If you are Article 37 " opt in list" you could lose an 8 hour a month, if your dispatchers have read it. Not saying thats the case in your situation. "Relieved of duty in 8 hours if put it winin 24 hours, if you have the seniority" bring it back, there is no discipline under contract
