[QUOTE="35years, post: 4402667, member: 60822"] 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. [/QUOTE]
