[QUOTE="unicornhearts, post: 1165459, member: 48439"] I've been a loader at UPS since August 2008. In the last few months, my supervisors have moved me around so much that I've done 13 pulls just this year on my boxline. I've done even more when you add the ones I've done on other boxlines. My start times change hourly and the ones posted for the week are irrelevant when my supervisors call me and tell me to do a completely different pull at a completely different time around 8pm when I'm about to go to sleep. But then I get to work and they tell me I'm late and I have to go somewhere else on another pull that I should've started an hour earlier. So of course I'm late, my supervisors told me to come in then and I can't turn back time. Also, I have two supervisors telling me different things, different times, where to be. Sometimes I do two pulls a day then go to the slide and help other loaders and do irregs and pop bags. Then when I get misloads it's all my fault even when the load charts aren't even up. My local 322 is a weak union and can't/won't do anything to help me. Sometimes I'm not even on the schedule because my supervisor "forgot." So I don't know where I'm supposed to be or when I'm supposed to be there. I've already been suspended for 10 days due to misloads and am in the process of being terminated. I don't want to lose my job. What recourse do I have? My union rep says none. [/QUOTE]
