[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 473173, member: 13254"] Here is the part that totally fumbuzzels me. From the letter posted in the thread about new 9.5 language. [SIZE=3]5. Drivers on extended routes will qualify for relief under this article[/SIZE] [SIZE=3] provided the Company can reasonably dispatch work to other [/SIZE] [SIZE=3] drivers. [B]Note: [/B]This constitutes no change from the 2002-2008[/SIZE] [SIZE=3] Contract as there was an understanding to this effect between the parties [/SIZE] [SIZE=3] [SIZE=4]during those negotiations.[/SIZE][/SIZE] [COLOR=Sienna] [/COLOR] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=Sienna]I was under the impression that one the unions main goals was to ....encourage the comapny to develope more full time positions. These guide lines give UPS all they need to denie that encouragement. For example, the one area that I cover alot is 85-90 miles from the center, there are three drivers that deliver parts of that town and it's surrounding RRs. . The base line route ( I'll call it rt1) pulls a PT60 for rt2 that delivers about 20-30 residentials to the town and also delivers three other communities and the RR out of them.
