Monday 28th

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I didn't read the sign up sheet but I do believe there was the option for anyone who wanted their 8.

For us its a normal payday. Not a code05 day.

Same situation at my hub every year. Pre-loaders givin' the option to work Monday, start at 6am but hours only. Guarantee of 3 and half hours does not apply. Think they need 8 workers total and say there's about (give or take) 2hrs worth of work. I chose not to....much rather have the 4 day weekend.

Tues. start time is 5:20am and then 3:00am, Wed.

You're welcome.

Are you implying that there's language in the contract that states (as a pre-loader) if I'm asked / givin' the option to come in....I'm guaranteed 3 and half hours of pay in a situation like this?

You are guaranteed 3.5 just for showing up.

No code 05?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

No code 05?

Code 2.5?

It does however make it harder to request your 8 the next time.

No it doesn't.

 

[By The Book]

No it doesn't.

I think your being literal, which you may not have a problem requesting your 8. There are plenty of guys who after going with the flow now are afraid to speak up because it's expected from them the next time.

Here, they generally have on the signup sheet if you want your 8 or not. If you want if, you initial it, if not you don't. How can a sheet intimidate you?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

How can a sheet intimidate you?

I guess that would depend upon the color of the sheet and the intent of the person wearing it.

Where does the volume come from though? I mean we have volume from closed businesses sitting in the yard. But other than that what else?

They're running Sunday sorts in hubs I heard, volume coming in on rail.

Stuff still in the pipeline, either delayed along the way or shipped or ordered too late to get here by the 24th.

Suppose to be super light in our little hub, out here in gods country. Many are not even working and we don't start until 7am.

Hows Monday looking for all of you?

Till 7? Better demand your 3.5hrs if they get away with shorting you once you think they can do it whenever they want.

They're thinking 20 drivers out of our center. Probably should be more with CLH & all the EC's we had on 12-23 + overlap & new EC's on Christmas Eve due to weather.
