[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 506618, member: 6408"] The trouble with this is, bub, is that too many people are making deals. We have the same thing here. Nobody wants to follow the rules or past practice. Sometimes, not always, the union's hands are tied when you can't get drivers to cooperate. Exam: I can see in your centers case (as well as here), that you say that ALL laid-off drivers will be called back first, in order of seniority, you get some, if not ALL drivers saying,"I don't want to come off unemployment just to work one week or one day". Or, "I made arrangements with the family next week because I thought I was laid off". We got em, BOY do we got em! "I don't want to work THIS week." "I don't want to work Tues-Sat." "I don't want to work just 3 days a week." I could go on and on about what I've heard and seen here. Again, this may or may not be the case here, but I surmise it could be. How many of these 39 laid-off drivers went to the last general membership meeting? How many of these 39 laid-off drivers have actually filed for unemployment (if you can in your state, you can here)? How many of these 39 laid-off drivers have or will file a grievance when legally wronged? How many of these 39 laid-off drivers actually WANT to work? I understand what you're saying and where you're coming from because I've seen it here all-too-often. I'm betting that not all 39 drivers are on the same page as you are. [/QUOTE]
