I have been a part time cover driver for three
years now and in the past I have worked Saturday mornings delivering air. My wife and I
now have a family, soon to be getting bigger, and management is sending me home during
the week and telling me I "have the day off today to be able to work on Saturday". I have
so many problems with this, first being it takes away a full day of pay at my driver rate and
gives me 3-5 hours of air driver rate. Am I required to work Sat.???
How do I correct the problem? I feel like they are trying to compel
me to work on Sat. but that was not what I signed up for. I have told my supervisor that in
the past and he says "Part time cover driver are not a position so they don't hire just for
that position and they are in a hiring freeze." Why don't they pull someone from the preload get it
taken care of rather than try to take away from my family time. I would think that a
preloader would be happy to get paid the air driver rate.
