[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 512462, member: 13254"] I worked in a Sat center that was about an hour from our home center, 9 routes counting the route that the feed driver ran. We started out with 6 routes but after two weeks they decided that it just couldn't be done and added up to 8 routes. Every driver except the feed driver worked 10-11 hours per day. Back then the only thing an over 9.5 grievance did was bring about a meeting where the District Labor guy, the home center manager and two drivers (one doing the filing and the other acting as steward) got together and the center manager would promise to do something to bring the OT under control. Then nothing would change. There was no monetary penalty in the contract at that time. After a couple of years of every driver filing and missing a slew of packages nearly everyday they added the 9th route. About a year later they shut it down (due to other circumstances) and brought back all the routes but one. Sorry, I got carried away and forgot my point.lol The only time we saw a management person was when we filed grievances or someone was getting fired or we got a new center manager. [/QUOTE]
