Proposals for the next contract.

There was stuffing too??

Just for Inde. Which come to think about it has been quite good on this site lately.

Women with beards may scare some customers. Bring back the gold coin.

 

[govols019]

I want four 8-hr days per month. One a week isn't too much to ask.

 

[jumpman23]

How bout full day pay for weather early days or state of emergency. Being in my personal opinion that 5 sick days and 5 optional days are nothing in the grand scheme of things when you work 5 days a week most of the year and get whooped like a dogg everyday. Would be different if you worked at a normal job and didn't get whooped like a dogg everyday and got home at a normal time, but your home late as balls every night where your day is gone and you don't have time to do jack shiznitt when you get off.

 

[jumpman23]

How bout the option of working 4- 10 hour days. How bout your not forced to take a lunch break and you get paid for it if you don't take it.

 

[Johney]

Can we ay least get through this one before we worry about the next?

 

[jumpman23]

Exactly lol

I'd like more option time. I've heard some other regions have a lot more than mine.
I'd also like more frequent bidding, even for stuff that isn't available. Because the company doesn't manage its paperwork right and we are capable of making them handle it a little better.

More seriously, I'd like more ironclad language about creating new jobs. For every 40 hours of overtime worked by drivers in one center in one week, the company has to add one cover driver the following week to create a route to pull off that overtime volume. And naturally create more routes and ft driving jobs if there's 50 hours of overtime being worked weekly for six months straight. I dunno if your supplements and riders say stuff like that but mine doesn't. And the same language could be applied to every other shift and job.

And I totally could imagine a "appearance policy allows for a short, well-kept beard" article.

I actually like the beard idea. I'm in management so I'll never be able to have one, but it shouldn't matter for the employees IMO. Every suggestion I just read is a concession made by the company. What concessions will you allow as teamsters to have ironclad language for creating more ft jobs, or being able to have a beard?

We get paid for hours worked (no lunch means no lunch taken out) but no lunch is against state law. I took a 15 min lunch a couple weeks ago. Nobody said anything. 10 years ago I would have been disciplined for not taking at least 30 min.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

We have to at least show a 45 minute lunch in our DIADs.

If ups drivers had beards what would separate us from the other guys?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

You mean besides our pay checks and benefits?

only have to take 1 minute here, so the two paid 10 minute breaks and a 1 minute unpaid lunch is what I take daily 21 minutes is plenty to eat a sub or whatever

I would like some type of hazard pay like double time if under. State of emergency.

 

[upschuck]

Brown shorts!...lol

They'd have brown shorts to if you told them how much you make and benes.

 

[3 done 3 to go]

I'm glad not to have a beard. I can Go 3-4 days. Before I go nuts itching.

Contract wise. 8hr days only. Unless employee requests more.

More option days

Vacation days based on actual years of service. Not seniority date.

Let me sarcastically suggest we continue to screw the pters.
Actually I disagree with the idea of givebacks. The company continues to make progressively more profit yearly, by leaps and bounds, and I'm certain that if I were Hoffa I could have my accountant team figure out the percentage increase from year to year and what sort of 9.5 or number of routes language would mean increasing their staffing costs by the same percentage. Giveback my ****

Full time only from part time ranks. Part time to cover to full time

How about ----separated contracts for part time and full time? That way either would blame the other for selling out each other
