[QUOTE="soberups, post: 702014, member: 14668"] "9.5" is a[I] meaningless[/I] number unless you file a grievance to be relieved of the excessive overtime. If they want you in under 9.5 then call in every day at 9 hours, tell them how many stops you have left, and ask [I]them[/I] to decide whether you should go ahead and deliver them or bring them back and sheet them as missed in order to meet their deadline. What you are experiencing is nothing more than a new form of production harassment. All they are really trying to do is to get you to skip your lunch and work off of the clock in order to meet a "standard" that they have intentionally rigged to be unfair. The underlying problem is the rigged allowance. They know it; they have no intention of fixing it; so they are trying to intimidate you into working off of the clock. This is standard operating procedure for UPS, and always has been. Just do your job safely and by the methods. If you are going to be "over 9.5" then call in and put the ball into their court. If your sup is unsatisfied with your level of production then hand him the keys and ask [I]him [/I]to safely demonstrate the SPORH he expects you to maintain. My guess is that, rather than admitting that his expectations are unreasonable, he will simply move on and find a different employee to harass. [/QUOTE]
