Drivers on the preload

[eats packages]

they should just stretch out the sort to match their staffing

calling in drivers, unless they were laid off, is totally insane

The western region preloads, and I assume PT sorts, are currently on their own little production ride and the daytime delivery ops have to call drivers in early to acommidate.

Either way to answer OP, you deliver ground after preloading then you earn FT rate.
You also get 1 1/2 rate for hours prior to scheduled start.

Yup
Preload is short staffed
Been calling in full time drivers to fill in

Probably overtime for the drivers unless they arranged a back room deal with the center manager.

Their rate first week
PT rate adjusted to building seniority any proceeding week (layoff)
Time and 1/2 if starting early to help preload before leaving.

God where is that horrible language wpa?

The key word is ordered
Management says we are offered the work so therefore not eligible for time and a half

So are you saying you're not being forced?

Offered extra work
Top seniority down
One refuses, they ask the next guy

No
We did get the wage issue resolved today, though
Driver wage was correct

 

[Jkloc420]

yes

We’ve had drivers called in to (sometimes scheduled for) preload since long before peak. It really sucks for people that didn’t get the call when one that does works preload but then volunteers to go home afterwards due to excess drivers.
