[QUOTE="km3, post: 2750688, member: 56117"] What is the situation you're describing then? It's understood around here that supervisors working means progressing packages through the system. Driving air out to a driver seems to fit that definition. Easy grievance money, for those so inclined. (h). In my building, it is a job but it isn't. It carries no guarantee whatsoever, but they separate the exception drivers from the Saturday drivers so they know who they can rely on to say "yes" during the week (and are subsequently expected to do so). In short, an exception air driver isn't necessarily a Saturday air driver, and vice-versa. However, most Saturday air drivers are asked if they want to do exception work during the week as needed. The fact that they use these drivers for other things is another conversation entirely (and I agree that they shouldn't be used for shuttling ground, but apparently the local union and management decided it's mutually beneficial to do so).
