[QUOTE="Butters243, post: 2280723, member: 42484"] I have been an on-call coverage feeder driver for 10 years. When dispatch calls you, there isn't a choice of job or declining work available. Contract states if contact isn't made, dispatch must have a steward or union employee verify that they cannot get a hold of you and then call the next guy. If another job needs covering dispatch must start the process over again and call by seniority. Drivers that don't answer have been verbally warned but never a writeup that I know of. I currently have the last bid job in my building. If my job is cut or I get bumped, past practice has me returning to the on-call board instead of being able to bump a junior driver in another building within my local. Contract says I must have a " 5 day layoff " before I can bump. Does the word " layoff " mean missing 5 days or back on coverage for 5 days? I sympathize being on-call , hang in there ! Thanks for any replies to my question. [/QUOTE]
