[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1931582, member: 14176"] Nobody is confused, as the language is clear and should have been binding until August of 2018: [I][B]A regular seniority employee[/B] [B]shall not be required to work[/B] on the following eight (8) named holidays-New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, [B]day after Thanksgiving Day[/B], Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve-regardless of the day of the week on which the named holiday falls, provided they comply with the qualifications set forth hereinafter.[/I] Your purposed new langauge could be implemented in the next contract and used as a bargaining chip, had it not already been given away. Under the present weak leadership, I have no doubt. The union most certainly can prevent the company from "running their business" if their actions contradict what was bargained for, "in good faith", in our collective bargaining agreement. While the union and it's membership should work in concert to help the company, and in turn themselves, make as much money as possible, this particular issue certainly does not cripple the company's ability to compete in their marketplace and should have been protected until it could be negotiated for in the 2018 contract. As it stands now, once again, UPS gets something for nothing. I have said it repeatedly; I will and would have worked either way on next Friday's contractual holiday, the day after Thanksgiving, under the viable Art 40 language as I always have. All of this is stated in defense of those who find their annual traditions and family obligations permanently compromised by an organization that is supposed to protect them, not roll over every time the company barks.
