That would be @Dragon 's newest wife since they are married to their MIP and are on the great hunt to fire more ft hourlies.

I only fire those who deserved to be fired...all of them had 2nd and 3rd chances..so they had to go...

Pretty sure we are going to see a lot of holds this week.

Would be somewhat cool to have a driver's Helper year round if the hours were to increase.

Brilliant absolutely brilliant

I see now why you are a leader in this company

with those kind of instincts I thought you would have climbed higher than an ORS

Why don't you just move them to another location like they do the violent and corrupt management?

 

[Indecisi0n]

I keep asking...but why toilet paper? It's literally one of the last priorities.

Water, food, medical, protection, in that order. I've been covered for about 7 years now in all 4. I even have a stock of fish antibiotics bought off Amazon. Fish antibiotics are literally the same amoxicillin as they give humans.

My local store. Out of toilet paper , tissue and paper towels but has plenty of meats, milk, eggs and bread. People are dumbest animals on Earth.

It will for a short time, then back to the same once this passes
Off topic, I love how people freak out in these type of situations
Just got back from the grocery store
Ran into a buddy of mine who is the manager
They had a guy buy 100 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breasts
Had a lady buy 50 jars of spaghetti sauce

Maybe he's having a surprise barbecue for all the drivers in your center. Because she loves you so much

 

[rocket man]

Ok
By all means go ahead and volunteer for 80 hours. But to force it is BS

We were forced 70 hours the last 3 peaks.

It will break down your body. It will make you sick. I also fell asleep at the wheel for the first time in my career of over 35 years.

I also have asthma and am borderline diabetic. Two of the complications that makes the virus deadly. I am also very close to 60.

Vollunteers are one thing. Forced excessive OT is dangerous in more than one way.

In your mind you were forced to work 70 hours you do not have to

 

[rocket man]

In your mind you were forced to work 70 hours you did not have to

 

[Dumbo]

Here is a reddit thread regarding volume. One person is saying volume is up 90% of peak volume already.

PSA for coronavirus related online orders : UPS

Get ready to go back to peak season work. Also someone is suggesting that a national emergency can eliminate DOT service hour regulations.

Yeah
I could have just accepted being fired for job abandonment instead.....right.

Everyone was forced 70 hours in our center until the new language was implemented.

Wrong

Wrong

Ok I will bite.
Until the new language was in place, in the Central region what option did a driver have when he was scheduled to work a 6th shift after working 12 hours each of his first 5 shifts?

I will tell you how it worked here. Business Agent says yes in the Central you can be forced into a 6th shift up to a maximum of 70 hours.

A driver refused. Warning letter. 2nd time, suspended. Then he realized he did not want to risk termination.

Alot of guys talk tough on here claiming they can't force. Well, good luck to you in the Central. Our Business Agent is no push over and he confirms you can be disciplined.

If you know my posts here on Brown Cafe then you know I stick up for myself before management.

If not in the Central or you have extra local language your experience may be different.

 

[Re-Raise]

Well, I have lost a year’s pay on paper in the last month... so I guess it is time for a little overtime

Nope.

"I'm out of service tomorrow".

Diarrhea and leg cramps come at the oddest time.
