[QUOTE="upsguys_wife, post: 671819"] No, he definitely doesn't want the work. It's an argument every day with the supervisor. He tells her it's too much, she says just go do it it will be fine. But everyone else in the center gets to dump work so they can hit their 9.5. My husband gets all of that dumped work because there is nowhere else for it to go. They keep cutting routes which makes it even worse. They need to run a "short route", but they never do. One of the drivers signed up on the 9.5 hour thing and about got fired. They had big-wigs riding with him and scrutinizing his every move. He's worked there for 25+ years. He had to get his stop complete (or something?)time down 3 seconds or he would be terminated. It got pretty ugly. My husband has thought about trying it though. He's very fast and efficient. He's just afraid they'll find some little thing wrong and he'll lose his job. Everyone in his center signed the original "i want a 9.5 hour day and no more" paperwork. Then that one driver grieved his 10-10.5 hour days and about lost his job altogether. No one else dares complain. Every other driver has to be back to the center at a certain time because they have done pick ups that need to make the feeder. My husband doesn't have any pickups, so he can stay out an additional 3 hours....and they make him do that, regularly. I keep telling him there should be something the union can do. He is being singled out and slammed every day. That's discrimination? Unfair treatment? Something. I could understand it if every driver worked a 12 hour day, but he's the only one. [/QUOTE]
