[QUOTE="johnny_hotdog, post: 1836665, member: 54863"] The thing that is tough about UPS is that it seems every area has a little bit different rules. From what I know in my area if you are on the schedule to work a certain day you are guaranteed 8 hrs. What he needs to do is show up and tell them he wants to work. If they see that he is going to make them give him hours they may try to get other drivers to take the day off. In my center they do this all the time and usually someone is willing to take the day off. Also I have read that if they tell you they dont have 8hrs of work for you, they have to pay you for 6 and you don't have to work at all. The first thing to do is get a hold of a union book and get very familiar with it. I have learned that you can't rely on others to know all the rules or to do your fighting for you. I have also learned that some stuards are much better than others when it comes to fighting for union members. The next thing he needs to do is start standing up for his rights and stop letting them jerk him around. One thing I know about management is when they find a driver that will let them walk all over him, they will do so again and again. [/QUOTE]
