[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 733372, member: 12508"] Part-timer abuse is a fact, 30-hr policy or not. If the manager has a part-timer go over 30 it shows-up on a report and must be explained. In other words, operational need would still work as an reason. Part-timers are still being arm-twisted or threatened into working when they don't want to every single day. If a manager has a hole in the schedule, they're going to do whetever it takes to fill-it, even if that includes intimidation or harassment. As far as the union thing goes, it's my opinion that the Master Plan to switch E2 and SOS over to Ground has always been in the works. Impending unionization is just speeding things up a bit. As others have pointed-out, the stumbling block has been the legal battle over at Ground. If Fred can make it all above board, I also think you'll see Express become essentially a company of PT workers. The fact that they are renting huge numbers of vehicles instead of replacing them is a great piece of evidence. All the more reason to sign that card, because your great and benevolent Smith has always been planning to screw you (again). If he cannot get the kinks worked out of the Ground model we can really stick it to him hard with a union. Ultimately, this is going to blow-up in his face anyway because Ground will never be able to provide decent service to customers used to getting their pkgs on-time. UPS will have more business than they know what to do with. If you see a UPS salesperson, clue them in on what may be going on and twist that knife into Fred's back before he stabs you again.
