In my building any FT jobs are first bid to FT employees then PT are allowed to bid if no FT takes the job. A lot of drivers who won Art. 22.3 jobs wanted their driver job back after the first night.

27 years in and I still ask questions when I am not sure about something.
Last month I was going through EDD and saw something I had never seen before so I asked my PDS and he didn't know either. Turns out it was an appointment delivery.

That would be a terrible thing!! UPS and their PT jobs are killing everyone... These pt tcd's are making guys nuts!! No one knows when they'll get the call.. If you have a day job and you get a call at 7:45am.. You have to tell them no cause you're already on your way to your day job.. No notice.. And if you say you can't make it, they may not call you again.. Hearing lots of grievances being filed lately over that nonsense.. People with less then a year are CD driving everyday.. when theirs guys that have 3-5 years that don't even get called anymore... Sad everyone needs to dangle by the UPS string.

That's the way it's always been in the southern supplement. It's not going to change. That's why you figure a way to make it work if you want to drive. If not, too bad so sad.

What grievance would they have? If they turn down work or DQ themselves from cover driving,they don't have a grievance on lesser senior drivers working. Also TCDs have no guarantee to work everyday.

Still can't believe the union is okay with TCDs. From my end it's great. Flexibility galore. As an ORS, I'd love to have them. But at the same time, it's not fair for people. Not knowing when or if you're going to work. Really can't have another job on the side unless you own a business. Just a shady practice IMO.

The grievances are when they show up in the mornings instead of waiting for a call, and they see less senoity drivers coming in to work.. And they ask how come you didn't call me? And the sups response, (according to the tcd) we called you a week ago and you didn't answer. We thought you weren't interested in driving anymore. That's BS!!
and frigid.. I couldn't agree more! Something needs to be done about all the tcd's.. They just keep adding them instead of making ft routes.. They just put up 3 ft bid routes... And 15 Saturday driving bids a month ago... How come these aren't being taken by all these tcd's?? Am I missing something?

TCDs won't change unless the supplement changes. To do that, you have to get involved at your Union meetings so that next contract, it can be brought up.

Management starts later because they want the pre-load to leave with little X amount of hours at the end of them clocking out therefore putting their numbers @ stake.

At my Hub...staggered start times means that pre-loaders aren't all starting at the same time.
There are some who are scheduled to start 10mins later than the rest of the shift.

Funny to see how different hubs operate differently..
