So my pay is small only enough for gas...What can I do to make more money working at UPS?Should I just quit?Why does UPS like to screw there employees over?
You are guaranteed 3.5 hours daily which works out to 17.5 hours weekly. If you choose to leave early you forfeit your guarantee.
You keep saying that ,but I dont know if thats how it works here or not because im in small sort and everyone in that position either finishes in about 1hour or 2hours at the most...Also if that is true who would I need to talk to my supervisor "hey give me 3.5hours a day" or would I have to say that too someone at HR?
If they say there is no work, ask for a broom. If they refuse, sit at picnic table or wherever you take your break and wait for your 3.5. Then clock out. If they kick you out, then file a grievance with your steward.Where is the contract book you speak of at? Because I sure would love to have it as my back up just in case my supervisor saids something else...Ive been working here for about 3 weeks now.
Lets just say I dont get my guarantee of 3.5hours/Could I file Grievance?

I love double speak.The National Master portion of the Contract is available on Browncafe in the top thread of the UPS UNION ISSUES forum.
See Article 22, Section 5 . . .
All part-time employees governed by this Article shall be provided a minimum daily three and one-half (3-1/2) hour guarantee.
See also this memo at the end of the Contract . . .
Memorandum of Understanding
Teamster United Parcel Service Negotiating Committee (Union) and United Parcel Service, Inc. agree that it was their mutual intent that if a part-time employee completes his assigned duties and leaves work in less than three-and-one-half hours he shall be considered to have forfeited the right to his daily three-and-one-half hour guarantee. This shall not affect an employee’s right to a minimum three (3) hour daily guarantee.
[I'm assuming you fall under Article 22, and not Article 40 Air Operation.]
How do you afford a 3000gt but only work ten hours a week? Your screen name should of been "My 3000 GT is out of gas"
The Contract applies to all employees in the Bargaining Unit, even if they haven't yet joined the Union, or even if they never join the Union.ask your union steward for one, or ask around to co workers where you can get one. You might not be guaranteed your 3.5 until you are in the union though.
