[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 56261"] That is the lamest thing I have heard management try this year! 8 hour requests are a contractually negotiated right. Management has the obligation to factor that right into their staffing and dispatch planning. Insinuating that exercising a contractual right is the cause of them chronically violating another part of the contract is ludicrous and amazingly balsy. If I was your local steward I would be tempted to file an national Article 37 violation stating the local management team is violating the respect issue by treating us as if we were stupid. [img]http://browncafe.com/discus2/clipart/biggrin.gif[/img] Beyond your management insinuating that using your contractual rights is the problem (as a proof they are calling you stupid) you could do the math of their pathetic excuse for their inability to honor the contract. Four 8 hour dispatches. That amounts to 360 minutes of labor laid to blame. Four times the 1.5 hours they could have put on those guys and not go over 9.5. Divided by your 44 drivers amounts to 8 minutes each. Is your workforce only going into violation by 8 minutes, doubt it. Yep, this gets my vote as the lamest management claim of the year. [/QUOTE]
