You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Lmao
So that's it different pick ups?
Call the union hall and ask to speak to a BA. There should be no problem getting you on the 9.5 list if you want.

Honestly it doesn’t bother me.. I just filed 12 grievances this morning and have 3 more to file tomorrow one for sup taking stops off another driver and 2 for separate air drivers taking stops off another driver.. I just decided im going to bury them in grievances every day since supervisors want to work everyday and have air drivers deliver ground packages..

IE Transportation is a bunch of fat ass chair spinning idiots. I wouldn't rely on them to tie their shoes let alone deliver on earlier pull times!

You are eligible to be on the 9.5 list right now.
You are protected from UPS trying to tell you it's not the same route, as they re-assigned you.
The answers are all right here in Art 37 of the current (recently expired) NMA
Employees within the full-time driver classification shall be eligible for the protection of this Section provided: (1) the employee covers a route for a full week; (2) the employee bids or is assigned to cover a route for a full week but is prevented from completing that bid or assignment due to reassignment by the Employer; or (3) an employ- ee with four (4) years of seniority as a full-time package driver.

That's about the best advice. If you wanna play, drivers have to document, over and over again. They just don't get it. It's a commitment, if you wanna play with management. It can be done, but this guy sounds too new.

1. Have you ever retain an attorney and pursed a lawsuit against UPS? How did that go?
2. Have you ever contacted OSHA? Filed a complaint with OSHA? How did that go?

And you're still working, or retired I would assume?
I take it there have been other's who have sued them? Did they also win suits in the close to million dollar range (each driver)?
I love to hear this kinda stuff!

Yes to all of the above.
I’m not going to get into any details however I found Osha to be very professional and their investigation very serious.
You must have a solid case and it can be difficult to sue ups.
I will say decisions by the state and national panels are looked at as legal and binding.

Btw I’ve also filed state Eeoc charges and nlrb charges against ups and the union. Also contacted DOJ and met with investigators

I only ask, because I have personally pursued a few of these avenues. At least in my area, easier said than done. The short of it is; The violations have to be more than blatant. Seems they have to be almost malicious and with blatant disregard. Not the correct legal jargon, but just seemed to need to reach such a high level of malicious disregard. On top of that. Unless it's a slam shut case, Attorney's will want a retainer. On top of that. When pursuing government entities, they'll want you to exhaust your Union avenues first. I think this is where it works for the company to have the Union. Deals and problems can be fixed before being exposed to the government. I've also seen Attorney's take a case. After awhile, the attorney seems to wanna just sorta,,,,,disappear. The short of it. Not that it can't be done, but it can and probably will be cumbersome to say the least. I like to hear the stories of successes. But they are few are far between. Usually seem to have a gag order attached. There are probably a lot more success stories in management, than hourly in the area of lawsuits. Glad to hear when someone is successful. That's the only thing UPS understands.

I've also contacted the NLRB. short. Exhaust all avenues with your Union. Sometimes easy, sometimes not. (for me).
I've contacted EEOC. They seemed a lot more receptive (in my case).
I've Never contacted the DOJ! Damn, you had something going there!!
