Why don't the BA's come in at different times rather than a half hour before drivers start time? If they do, I never see them.
BA's have to make the best use of their time.
Maximize the time, for best exposure. (if they are smart, and want to get re-elected)
Plus, they have other company's they represent.... not just UPS.
Ask them the next time you see them.
Only time a Union Rep is ever spotted is when they are going in the building to present grievances.
That can depend on how big your Local is, And what other responsibilities they have.
There are some of us who have been waiting years for grievances to be presented and paid.
Are you sure ?
I find that hard to believe.
You don't even see them at union elections time when they are after your vote?
There are Locals, that can cover an entire State or more.
Sometimes, it comes down to a frugal and judicious use.... of a limited financial resource.
