[QUOTE="22.34life, post: 753624, member: 23722"] I believe there is language in the contract that covers this,i cant quote it word for word but its something like this,when a over 70 is handled two bargaining unit employees will handle it but the hourly can only ask for help if he resonable believes he needs it.i think it also talks about in the event no hourly is available,cant remember what it says about that though.to me, people make to big of a deal about the whole over 70 thing in the first place,if you really cant lift something than by all means ask for help but some guys ask for help with a 71 lb package,gimma break.you see a guy who is 50 yrs old and not in the best shape it is reasonable to believe he would need help to lift a 100 lb package but you see a 21 yr old guy who looks like arnold and he asks for help thats a different story.SO your upset because a sup is helping an hourly who cant lift the irreg on his own,if the same sup refused to help an hourly and he got hurt because nobody else was around then you would be starting a thread about how much of an a**hole that sup was.if you dont want sups lifting over 70s than stop bitching about lifting them yourself.
