[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 225583, member: 7185"] Indeed. Management got hit with a BIG grievance--close to 2 hours in one day--back in March or April, I think. They paid the steward an hour and a quarter on the spot, just to avoid the hassle of the grievance. I don't have a problem with a supe working, as long as its not to [I]deliberately[/I] p*ss me off. I've posted a few of those stories, I think. Congrats on the baby!!!! Oldest of a large family here, with a brother sixteen years my junior. Holding that little life is something else, isn't it? When I was a helper last Peak, one of my drivers' wife had a baby and he called in to be with her. I was told management was [I]p*ssed[/I] off, with the center manager personally calling and asking the guy to come in. He refused. Management could do nothing about it. As to the supe delivering...I've come to agree with what somebody posted on here: "Its management's responsibility to staff the operation, not hourly employees' responsibility." I'm living by that same principle at my restaurant job. I work hard but I won't [I]kill[/I] myself for my managers' decision to [I]deliberately[/I] shortstaff the operation. I called him on that in a rather cranky, frustrated mood a few weeks ago. His face changed slightly--not angrily--when I called him on that. He thought I was an idiot but he'd forgotten I'd seen how many people he'd hired for other positions. Strangely enough, I'm getting full-staffing now :thumbup1:. -Rocky [/QUOTE]
