QUOTE=pbr me;286606]Yesterday here in milwaukee ups called the union to ask permission to use helpers!!! This week was worse than peak!!! We ran about 20 helpers and could have used alot more!!! What a joke!!![/QUOTE]
Same thing happened here in our podunk 50 driver barn. We had 4 on one day and 6 on the other. The local said to file on each and every one and we will get paid. Its going to end up costing them $108 an hour for all the helper hours in January.
This is a serious issue that needs to be addressed/grieved, otherwise you will be using a helper year round with 200-300 stops a day. They tried to push this through in the most recent contract. Please do not let them do this in your center. It is bargaining unit work and they will see which centers they can get away with it at. From what I understand they are doing this nationwide. Stand up and file on each and every one.
