Sh-t happens, right?
In my opinion they can and do lie! Their job is to represent the company and to head off any legal issues. They are not objective. They are not on your side. You are not the one who signs their checks. Just remember, figures don't lie but liars sure figure. You need to be shown and read the policy for yourself.
Then you hit them with a copy of Policy. They can not make you work more than 30 hours a week unless you allow them to….operational needs or not. Call HR. If that doesn’t work, call THEIR boss and on up the line if you have to. If you are not brave enough to do those things it’s YOUR problem.
Is working an extra hr a day and making more money a bad thing?
yep, operational needs doesn't override hr policy. operational needs doesn't override the 14 hour on duty or the 10 hour off-duty rules, even if your non-dot where it doesn't apply federally.
you or push you around -- they stop for the most part -- the decent ones at least. they realize that their effort in lying is not going to pay off.that or it's a shared driveway and you can't exactly figure out which one it is because the dot is inbetween two of the houses in real life.
Yet you complain about the insurance benefits. Those 4 or 5 hrs a week can help pay medical bills.
Their right to operational needs ends where their bad planning begins.
Part-time gives up short-term disability, more guarantee pay, and more vacation pay in exchange for not having to work full-time hours and spend more time living life. The company should not have the ability to force someone to effectively work full-time hours but yet only provide them part-time benefits.
People that are having mental issues and complain about the cost of treatment should realize the best way to pay for treatment is to work a few more hours. I guess the mental issues the original poster said he is having on another post is preventing him from realizing money doesn't flow in without putting in a few hrs of work.
Im not talking about the original poster but putting out a hypothetical here. Imagine if the job increases a persons stress level, as it does for us all, and that makes their mental challenges worse. If thats the case, working more to pay for mental health could actually have an adverse effect on that very mental health. But quitting that job would cause a financial hardship and more stress. So, in that situation whats the best outcome? Work what your able (part-time) and go home to de-stress.
Gosh! It never occurred to me. You really ought to join MENSA. Hint: It’s different than NASCAR.
Yeah, I’m a huge fan of the LEO map.
Stop entertaining the troll. He was gone for awhile and all was peaceful. If we ignore him he’ll go away again.
When I was PT, they never TOLD me I had to stay, they always asked. Reason was, they knew they couldn't make me stay
Some people have a life outside FedEx...a second job, family they want to have dinner with, etc
The good managers know to do this. The bad managers scream op-needs to everyone.
