[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 758773, member: 18044"] UPS is breaking out the Champagne once again. They have successfully programed yet another mind to blame your fellow workers for having normal desires to exercise what few contractual rights they have. UPS is obligated to allow 10% of drivers to have an 8-hour day each day. Each driver gets two 8-hour days per month (excluding November and December.) Therefor the requests should be spread out evenly throught the month. It is up to UPS, not the driver, to determine the overall dispatch plan. UPS, not the driver, determines how much work is on each car, and if work will be shifted from one route to another at the start or end of the day. Since the 8-hour requests are predictable, UPS could easily hire additional drivers to handle the work. They choose not to and dump the work on you. They know you'll blame your fellow worker, not them. The same process applies when employees take vacations, sick days, personal holidays, brevement leave, FMLA leave, maternity leave, or are on TAW, or Worker's Comp, or have jury duty. UPS, not the driver, decides overall how much to load up the cars, then decides route by route how much to overload specific cars. UPS, not the drivers, decide how many routes and drivers to schedule. [/QUOTE]
