You want a toe? I can get you a toe.

Sure is. But its not a "UPS Holiday" on the calendars for 2015 so looks like they are planning on working us again. Who knows for sure though.......
What??!
Im filing a grievance!

I'm assuming you meant TOS?
Read much? I said I agree with him.
I do apologize for the misunderstanding although I'm curious as to why you would add that you haven't called in. It's unnecessary information and since you didn't explain it me and quite a few others it seems followed the context of your post. Not blaming, just showing you why I anyways went where I went. Good luck, oh and I'm pretty sure that if you take the day off without it being scheduled or being sick, your holiday pay is forfeit. Check with your supervisor.
I agree with Upstate. WalMart has given the green light for all their stores to match or beat Amazon's prices. We're going to be super
ed until 3D printers or Star Trek like teleporters make us obsolete.Oh for sure. This isn't an optional day, it's required. Although in my supplement I can only demand 3 1/2. I'm sure I'll get at least...9 hours though. I'll do a route and then be required to park package cars (my day job) since our building isn't large enough that all drivers can park when they show up. Easy money and a good way to work off some stuffing and taters!

When working Green Friday take your time and make sure you follow all methods. Half mile driveway? Walk it off. Business on the third floor that you know is closed? Leave an info notice. It would also be a good day to do some driver marketing at the few businesses that are open. Most importantly be safe and work safe.

It sounds to me as though you are under the impression that it will be a light day.

I don't know what to expect. I am just ticked we are being FORCED to work rather than volunteer. It will be a day of extremes depending on your management team. If they are number crunchers they will cut loads and send everybody out heavy. If they are decent then it will be all hands on deck and we will all have a light day. All I can say is if there is one person with less seniority sent home instead of me, I may file my first grievance.

Do you think your mgt team wants to be there either?

Management doesn't have to drive, and they probably get paid more, so yeah they probably don't mind being there.
