and if you did any of that in a center bigger than the Bog, you would be fired already
I will file the safety risk tomorrow when I file another grievance for this same thing.
My orion on my route doesn't work because most days I cover work off 3-5 areas next to me.

If he was instructed to be in by a certain time and to also not have any missed packages, then he should deliver everything and get in when he gets in. As long as his pick up pieces make the sort.
File on any warning letter given for not coming in when instructed.

No, our center has not done that and the discipline will never hold water. Your center manager and on road sups are getting there as%'s handed to them for way to much over allowed. Work safe give 100% and don't worry about it. If called into the office make sure you have your ss or ba in the office. 952

You'll get warning letters. I can't even fart without getting one. Then they'll bump it up to intent to suspend, never suspend you then bump it up to intent to terminate. They'll violate your Wagner rights and try to get you to quit. Your mantra should be "I need a steward". Just work first file later.

Wagner and Weingarten played ball together in college.

Neither actually apply to you, Dave. The Wagner Act established the NLRB. And Weingarten rights...well...let me be gentle here...they actually apply only to those who have the backbone to assert those rights.

To be fair, I didn't know that either.
Thanks for sharing.

Senator Wagner of NY was a major supporter of the working class and organized labor. In addition to sponsoring the National Labor Relations Act, he also sponsored the Social Security Act and the Public Housing Act. There aren't many like him around anymore.

If an Employee responded to that message with "OK" , would that not be an extra contract agreement which is not enforceable and is null and void per the Contract?
After all, it would be an agreement regarding production which is not recognized by the Teamsters.

Nope. We are work as instructed. If a message came over the DIAD to be in by a certain time, we are instructed to be in by that time or face discipline for failing to work as instucted, per the CBA.
If I was told to be in by a certain time, I would be in by that time, or expect to possibly receive a warning letter for failing to follow instructions, and sheet any packages brought back as missed.
If I was told to be in by a certain time and have no missed packages, I would reply that their request is not possible and ask for clarification on which of the two they want to happen.
If they don't reply back, I would make service on all packages and be in when I got in and grieve any warning letter given for not coming in when instructed.
The warning letter will be thrown out.

"I'm doing the best I can, in the safest manner possible."
End of story.
Unless UPS is paying your phone bill....
Never discuss any "work related" issues on your personal phone.
If you are receiving "work instructions" via the Diad;
Ask for clarification.
And, take a pic of the conversation.
CYA.
The company has your back.
Right ??

Pretty simple...the "request is not possible". I'd also consider responding as Ronald Raegan did to House Speaker Tip O'Neill when they were close to an agreement on a piece of legislation and Tip pushed for a little bit more. Raegan responded "Tip, I can crap you a grape...but I can't crap you a watermelon." Not a big Raegan fan, but I loved the quote!

Is that why you misspelled his name...3 times?
