[QUOTE="FlipOldman, post: 3479646, member: 72220"] Long time air driver here. I do a regular pick-up route that includes 3 UPS Stores on it. I arrive at the stores close to their closing times to pick up any airs that came in after the last ground driver has been there. At one of these stores the owner expects me to pick up all of his grounds as well. At first it didn't bother me, but as the years have gone on he has never once done anything to return my favor and I'm getting fed up. He's literally making money off of my free labor. Article 40 says air drivers are supposed to pick up AIR packages, but exceptions can be made. The language there is a little vague and I hope the next contract clears this up a little. From what I understand of this, an exception is when the boss tells us to pick up grounds one day and then we're supposed to get ground pay. Am I correct there? Is there any way an air driver should be picking up ground packages and not getting ground pay for it? [/QUOTE]
