I’ve worked 59.57 hours this week, and now I’m forced to work Saturday. Now what?

[QUOTE="Buffet Master, post: 5131229, member: 86736"] This answers a question I've wondered since the first time they flipped hours on the IVIS. I'm feeder, only 18 months at UPS but a long time in trucking. I never heard of a company just flipping 60/7 and 70/8 all willy nilly. When I hired on, our hub was short handed and balls to the walls so we were 70 when I started, flipped to 60 a few months later then back to 70 for peak then back to 60 all year until peak again. So the company is federally declared 70/8 which I thought, because we operate class 8 sleeper trucks at locations nationwide. The 60 hour is a cap per the contract then. Makes sense now. I'm pretty sure you can't just flip 70/8 and 60/7 at will with the DOT. [/QUOTE]
