That is a very subtle difference but you are right. Most air drivers have a ground pick up on their route and the Union agreed that they will be paid air rate. But if I grab a misload and deliver it I receive top driver rate for all the time I spent driving that day. Pays to be nice to the OMS because she is the one that dispatches the misloads.
Can you back this up with language from the contract?
I won’t be taking packages to other drivers I’ll be going to Ontario which is about an hr away. I did a ride along last night . It Took about 3 hours after unloading & stuff .
Just wait until you get 6 inches of snow and you can't see where the shoulders of the road are.
Thankfully I’m in Southern Cal we don’t get snow here just extreme heat year around . It was 90 here yesterday and 75 at night . Yikes !
At my building the air drivers are forced to shuttle ground packages and we only receive our air rate. I've filed greviences and have lost them.
Sometimes you have to choose your battles. $30/hr to take packages out to a driver to deliver ain't too bad.
They said as long as i'm not the one scanning them, I don't get the pay for it.
Like our other two airs drivers we have, they didn't red circle our pay. So when they reset our progression going from part time to full time, we had to restart from the starting pay to.
Are you saying that when you went from being a PT air driver to a FT 22.3 air driver you had to start your air progression pay over?
