[QUOTE="scoobypanda, post: 709196, member: 13957"] There are points in the post that i believe people are missing. I like overtime. I am used to overtime over my 17 year career. Overtime pays for my greens fees. The problem that myself and the original author have is the fact that UPS now is insisting on 9.2 planned on road. What that translates to is a roughly 12 hour workday and that is excessive. The bigger problem is that this new mandatory excessive overtime is suppressing jobs, Teamster jobs. Reducing overtime to "normal" UPS levels of 2 or 3 years ago could create roughly 30,000 full-time jobs when people are struggling to find work all over the country. We are getting beat up to improve stock dividends for strangers. I have 4 pending 9.5 grievances and I am still expecting another overdispatched day tomorrow. I will do the work and I will play golf next week with the extra money UPS gives me, but I won't sit on my hands and not point out when the company fails to bargain in good faith, refuses to follow a mutually agreed to binding contract and still applauds itself as a "top corporate citizen".
