[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1259825, member: 43436"] From Tuesday onward last week, yes. And we used helpers all week; our local signed an agreement (in 2008) recognizing that peak continued through the second full week of January and allowed UPS to use helpers provided no routes were cut and all FT drivers were working. The company abuses the agreement by soliciting time off from high-seniority drivers, effectively challenging members to file a grievance that will tick off their fellow union brothers. Just as the agreement overrides the CS supplement in mandating that the Company must use inside (union) helpers, regardless of hours worked, before using seasonals... yet I did not help this past week, as the driver I worked with during peak was on vacation and his replacement had his outside helper. I was told there was no work available for me as drivers had their preferred seasonal helpers. Again, if I were to file, it's UPS purposely pitting fellow IBT members against each other. Smart.
