[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1239002, member: 42270"] The company can get over it. I still disagree, primarily based on the language on how its done in my area. If someone signs a double list/extra work list and, after being called in to work, cannot do so 3x in 30 days they can be removed from the list for the same time period. That would effectively knock a PT'er out of working doubles the entirety of peak season. Granted, management typically doesn't follow through with this, but they have every contractual right to do so. That being said, verbally communicating to a supervisor that you plan to work an extra shift and then not showing up is a :censored:ty thing to do and shafts a junior union member out of working more hours. Additionally, the OP's hub had employees volunteer for these sorts electronically, which I've never heard of and is a [B]terrible [/B]idea in general. Had the management at OP's hub verbally communicated with each employee, he could have gotten a cell phone/call-in number in case of inclement weather; as it was, he was already late (his fault) but there was snow/sleet falling outside (not his fault).
