My center is requiring all package drivers to work Saturday the 23rd. Is anybody else having the same experience? In 29 years this will be the first Saturday I have had to work.

How can it be mandatory? And if it is, does that mean double time? Our center is signing up volunteers. So far the list is not too long and like its been said before, alot of drivers will be pushing 60 hours on Friday night.
