Most PTers don't even know they're union. They never look at their paystubs and see dues come out. They go to work and money shows up in their bank account. That's all they care about.

The whole purpose of direct deposit. Making it harder to check your hours.

Really? Because before this technology, I was never able to check my hours instantly the day of I think it’s mostly just laziness, regardless of if it’s paper or electronic.

Most new young hourlies believe the company will correctly keep track of their hours for them. They would never dream that their buddy the PT sup would purposely trim their hours to make themselves look better.

Trust me, it’s not just the young guys. I got 30 year vets who don’t bother to look until weeks later and then come to me lol it’s mostly like I said, lazy.

I check it every night after I get home, I don’t trust these people any further than I can throw them.

Never saw the need. I kept track of my own hours. Either it matched my check, or it didn't. If it didn't, I grieved them.

We had those little calendar books the union handed out that I used to write down my daily in time, out time, total hours, the route I ran, and days towards progression then made sure my stub at the end the week matched down to the decimal. Checking daily would have been a redundant waste of time.

You smell that?
If mine is wrong I know it right then...no need to wait until my check is wrong
It's easier to talk to them about it just once rather than have them correct it every day. Saves time.

My BA hates the time clock viewer mainly because of people seeing its wrong and freaking out like the money is already gone.

Why would somebody contact their business agent when the time card viewer is wrong?
You would contact your supervisor first and then only contact your BA if your actual paycheck was wrong.
Contacting your BA first is like wiping before you poop, it don't make no sense.

He's told me many of times that a member will call him freaking out because the holiday pay doesn't show or that his hours are showing the wrong rate. They all want to file a grievance right then and there because they are worried the check will be wrong on pay day.
99% of the time it's just the time card viewer isn't updated.
That is what happens when you're living paycheck to paycheck.
Some of these guys need every cent to pay bills and can't afford to incur late fees, again.
