Norwood, MA drivers told they are working Christmas Day

[jumpman23]

That's the Christmas spirit!

Feel me dude, working xmas day, isn't it bad enough that these idiots have you as their slave 3/4 of the day and don't have time to do jack or have a life and they want you to work xmas day too, they have some big kahunas for even remotely expecting that shiznitt lol.

Well, Monday through Wednesday this week can't be any worse than the rest of peak has been around here. 14 hour days were not unusual, and nearly everyone rolling stops because of the 14 hr. rule and 60 hr. rule. I hope our District Manager enjoys his fat Christmas bonus.

At what point does the procrastinating of some stop overriding the deeply held values of another? Want it by Christmas? Order it two weeks ago. Otherwise, suck it up if the weather delays it. Nothing you order is more important than someone else's right to be home with their family on Christmas Day.

Agreed. Does one more useless gift matter to a kid with too many already?

[olroadbeech]

[oldngray]

Why waste time showering?

 

[olroadbeech]

Why waste time showering?

thats true. I can get another social security number and work twice the hours.

bingo..especially when there are some children that don't get anything...

 

[DOK]

Just because we don't have xmass eve pickups , does not mean that the trailers stop coming in .
A major storm will be here 12-24 & 25 , most likely delaying some all ready inbound .

Where's this major storm?

 

[PASinterference]

Where's this major storm?

Hey, Its an excuse. Pipe down.

 

[joeboodog]

Hey, Its an excuse. Pipe down.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

These aren't the droids you are looking for.

 

[bumped]

Discuss options, bookoff or just ignore them?

So where are these people that had to work Christmas? Anybody work Christamas, or worried for nothing?

 

[iruhnman630]

I saw a Fed Ex'er out today.

That's ups to your local contract not ups. I highly doubt it's straight time.
