[QUOTE="Mike23, post: 584930"] Actually, the only reason I do it is because I'm one of the few drivers that was a 'swing' driver in the new city here. When I injured my shoulder I was put on light duties and sent EVERYWHERE for around 4 months (light duties apparently meant lifting 120 pound toilets too so shows how much they did to accommodate). This makes it prime for them to go, 'hey, go help this person!' every single day. I'm fine with helping twice a week or so but we all know there are other drivers out there to pick on. I even told management, if you want me to work 12 hours do it to me on a Friday so I'm not tired the next day. If I drag butt at all on my route I'm toast :( As I've stated in previous posts, I have one of the busier commercial routes in the city. When it came up for bid NO ONE bid on it. Well, one person did then backed out. Our depot here, EVERYONE works off the clock in the morning. Stewards don't say boo and neither does management. My point is if this is acceptable in the morning and then I punch out 5 min early in the evening before management can pin me at the turn in counter why wouldn't I do it? I still get paid my 8 hours even if I'm under. I'm wondering if I CAN get away with it though or will I be disciplined and not with the kinky leather and whip sorta way? I WON'T punch out early if I'm over my 8 because then I am losing money and hurting myself, before the 8 though, why not? I'm also one of 3 other drivers that drive a P1000. Management tends to leave them alone due to their seniority and because they drive a P1000. P1000 at our center tends to have more volume then all the other vehicles other then the 5ton. I'm cool with the lower seniority part and having to do more OT then they do but having to do ALL the OT when they punch out almost at the same time as me? Umm, no, then I do have a little bit of an issue. [/QUOTE]
