    Over 9.5

    A guy in my center has filed 3 over 9.5 grievances in the past 3 weeks. They cut one or two areas and give an already 10+ hr per day rte another hour of work? Meeting was a few days ago, and nothing has changed. Im asking because Im gonna file next and want to know how. My area is cut I follow my work and bump a less sr. driver. The days are 10-13hr(biggest was 13.84) PLANNED days. I run a little under less than .50. Im tired of 10-12 hour days. Our BA tries to talk us out of filing Grievances..why?

    Probably because it hinders his ability to eat a dozen donuts when the Krispy Kreme "Hot" sign is on.

    Our agents are excellent at multi-tasking.

    Eating with both hands is not normally considered multitasking.

    If they cut your route,you have the option of taking off. At least you wouldn't be over dispatched then

    Depends on whether the wife finds out about it.

    take that 13.84 hour day and make it a over 14 hour day than take tomorrow off....

    Just keep filing your BA seems to be lazy. Next you vote for a new BA voted that slate out....

    My building sends cars out at just over a 9 hour planned day. Are CM told us he was told to make it a 10 plus hour planned day because when it was at 10 hours planned day last year most everyone was running scratch and that there are some people that are always running over now when it's only a 9 hour planned day. He said the people that are running over all the time need to pick it up or hes going to be forced to raise the planned day back to 10 hours...

    Hoax...with each new post,you seem to laugh harder at our concerns.
    How would you like to be out till 9PM delivering amazon crap?
    Sure we get paid for it,but we don't want the OT.
    If you did an (alleged, under) 9.5 hr shift as a driver now you would see my point.
    But I think I see,you are just happy to get out of there...lucky bastard

    Why do you worry about the "plan"? Do you take your breaks and lunch within the specified contractually agreed time?

    Re: Over 9.5

    Obviously, this thread was directed to ME, so I will say I agree with upsguy72. It would be easy to take a 13.84 day one minute over 14 hours (It's only 10 minutes). Take the next day off, because you won't have your MANDATORY 10 hours off between shifts. Then the next day you're back, do it again.
