don't call in the day of your appointment call in the day before and take 2 days.
no note needed for 2 daysGood One! and bring a note...and say it's personal...that's that!
I signed up for a personal day next week and was denied... i need that day off.. what should i do? call in sick?
UPS is a money W****.
Oh heck. Call out take the rest of your life off.
I'm not a professional at this friday call off thing like you guys but it seems like him calling out and bringing a note from the doctor he sees would cover all the bases.
I do love reading this thread though. This is one example where you fellas will quote the contract to me all day until this example where it works against ya.
Personal days are just like vacations they go by seniority.Let me get this straight. I put in for a personal day for 6/12. When I signed up there were 2 others on the list and was told by my on-car that all he could let off that day was 3 so I was all set. Are saying that a higher seniority driver who still has days left could bump anyone on that list with less seniority than he has? Doesn't work that way here and, to be honest, I don't find that to be very fair. Vacations--yes. Personal/sick days--no.

I didn't say sick days I said personal days. Yes I'm saying that a higher senority guy could bump a lower senority guy it works that why in my building.
The example was quoted, so how did we not quote the contract to you? That made no sense Tie. Good subliminal troll attempt though.
and it only works against you, the supervisor, so maybe that is why your post seems filled with frustration. Either way the person gets the day, so who is it working against again?
In reality those who quote the scripture from the good contract book to me should also learn to abide by it. The contract allows a set number of optional holidays. If you don't have the seniority to get your day off then you should abide by the contract and come to work. Its an area where you folks will routinely ignore the contract. But yet you folks fill this thread up with your tips on how to bypass the language and intent but you will scream bloody murder when management tries to do the same.
I didn't see anyone suggest the person talks to one of the folks who were approved to see if he could get him to back out on his request and free up a slot? No team in teamster?

Personal days are just like vacations they go by seniority.It doesn't work that way here either Upstate. Not only does it go by seniority but timelyness plays a role as well. If I request a personal day and it is approved then I can't be bumped out. The senior driver gets a big fat NO!Let me get this straight. I put in for a personal day for 6/12.
