[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1452435, member: 43436"] If there's an abundance of labor in your area willing to work at UPS for less than 4 weeks, then I don't see what the issue is. No, I wouldn't like it either, but UPS's goal is to maximize its profits. Not to mention that many of your co-workers don't want to load trucks for 8+ hours per day, or get up at midnight, etc. OTOH, if UPS is doing it to circumvent paying out OT -- that is, the "two" shifts will largely consist of a single employee group -- than I can understand your point. However... you've mentioned before you're in a Southern RTW state, where few PTers are in the union. Just think, if they joined, voiced their opinion & paid their dues, and refused to accept a contract that didn't support them.... in my area, all hours over 5 within a 24-hour period are OT. Period. Hence why UPS wouldn't try this BS here. [/QUOTE]
