[QUOTE="TheOCbaby, post: 5643452, member: 8886"] The MLK holiday issue had already been addressed several contracts ago. When I first started in the mid-1980's, we were contractually granted paid birthday and anniversary day leave along with two FHP's. After MLK Day became a federal holiday and most states began adopting it as well, the Teamsters pushed to make it a paid holiday at UPS. The problem is that most businesses didn't observe it as a day off, so UPS needed to retain that day as an open work day. Eventually a solution was worked out that our birthday and anniversary paid days off would be converted to two additional FHP's (for a total of 4), so that employees could freely elect to utilize one of those FHP's to take paid time off on MLK day.
