Forced Saturday

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

BF is a regular day. 6th punch is the norm during Peak.

"...if you are working under the Upstate/West New York Supplemental Agreement."

Has your former center manager asked you to help during peak?

He’d be running the show over there

if it wasn’t for that pesky hiring freeze

"...if you are working under the Upstate/West New York Supplemental Agreement."

Only for local 449. The other locals in Upstate NY all got an extra rover, BF is just another work day.

It is NOT the norm. I have NEVER worked a Saturday in my 18 years of driving.

It's a race to 62.5 hours by Friday at punch out time. Thats 2 - 12hr days, 1- 12.5 hr day & 2 - 13hr days.

Shouldn't be that difficult to achieve to eliminate having to do a 6th punch.

Unless,of course, you like that special brand of punishment.

Don’t worry. You can still work as a helper

I didn't come in. Maybe double time after 60 will change some mind's?

FRONT DOOR OR EC , that is the two choices this year, I am not mailboxing..

Local 728 is telling us they can’t make you work 6 days because the contract defines the work week as 5 consecutive days. I know from experience I called out a Friday and Saturday last peak and never heard another word about it.

I can only remember one time in over 40 years when drivers were asked to come in and work a Saturday during Peak to get caught up. There were a few times when it would have been a good idea and the drivers expected to be called in but it never happened.

If they can't make you work, why would you have to call out?

Local 728. So that's the southern region right?
So you guys only work 8 hours a day and never work any OT unless you want to. Because that's what your contract says.

I have a feeling your local didn't say that. It's the same thing spread around many buildings this time of year.

Our NE supplement says that, prior to any shift, you can make an request to not work more than 10 hours. A couple years ago our BA printed a form for me, I just signed /half dated and made 30 copies for peak. Company argued the language was not intended for package but either feeders or freight, iirc. Lol. I never went over 10

What's the penalty if they do work you over 10. The west has 9.5 language for all employees even 22.4s but there is no penalty so the company isn't going to care.

There is no penalty for peak, you mean? There is no penalty set forth in our supplement. Which would seem like UPS would try to head fake with the job abandonment scam, but every day in had a written request, so it was null.

My last two Peaks we worked each of the Saturdays after Turkey Day.
