[QUOTE="browned out, post: 3951587, member: 8105"] 22.4s will not be scheduled to work any Mondays so technically the entire RPCD force could be laid off on Mondays. For Wednesday-Friday; your statement is correct. All RPCD's must work before a 22.4. Tuesdays are subject to change. If UPS goes to a Wednesday thru Sunday 22.4 week; which they have every right to do; then an unlimited number of RPCDs could and will be laid off on Monday and Tuesday since No 22.4 would be working on a Monday or Tuesday. The low seniority drivers will not be bumped to 22.4s. But; I think UPS's methodology leads them to believe that many RPCDs will be starved out from only working 24-32 hours per week. UPS hopes these shafted RPCDs will bid into 22.4 just to reach a guaranteed 40 hours. Many of the laid off RPCDs will not reach the required hours for a full years' pension credit. This is another reason a low seniority driver may bid to 22.4. It is all bad. The Union did not fulfill their duty of fair representation during contract negotiations. If they had; these issues would have been addressed as they were in the NorCal and other supplements. [/QUOTE]
