CAN THEY DO THIS??

[PT Car Washer]

if you just started you are most likely far down the list anyhow, so it works to your advantage in this case

Started back in September. Could still be bottom air driver though.

he said he is a seasonal driver, i am assuming that is not just an air driver

It does happen, but like i said he dont have to answer his phone or say i have prior plans. The big thing is not to get caught so they can ask, unless they are forcing him to call in everyday but thats a different thing

He should still be working preload unless he agrees to being a seasonal driver. Even then he should still be working even when there is not a route to run.

No he said he started preload and was asked to help during Peak and then went back to preload and driving Saturday air. Keep up.

Art 40 Air Exception driver.

Where in Article 40 does it say exception air drivers are on call?

So I should just call the local union office and ask? I've been doing the on call thing for awhile and never been paid top rate. I don't have to call in every day, but if they call me I have been told I have to show up or they will revoke my driving privileges.

He said he is working preload but driving seasonal. Which means they are not using him to drive now. They want him on call so they can use him. However if he is working preload he should not be going driving after that for 8 to 10 hours

You should call the union office but im pretty sure you don't have to sit around waiting on them to call you

Seasonal means he is driving m-friend to me not just driving on saturday

What rate of pay are you paid when you drive?

I'm not in the Central but you sound like a part time cover driver to me. They work vacations/sick/disability.

Maybe he is considered a TCD?

Art 40 sec 1 (h) exception air drivers.

im just telling you what seasonal means to me, thats my definition

And that's when they usually use the TCD. Peak and summer vacations

Which why I suggested he contact the Union hall and find out his exact classification.

he needs to just call the union office

Ok. I got that part. I'm wonder where it says they are "on call"

How else would you be contacted. Now days I suppose you could be text but means the same. Packages that are unscheduled for delivery. Feeder driver brings in a NDA and still needs to be delivered that day. Or an unscheduled air pick up.

You can be called yes but you're not "on call".

Here it's done by seniority during the preload hours. If anything pops up after they will call asking in seniority order if someone wants the extra work.
