Operational needs
Virescit Vulnere Virtus
The last of our gung-ho kool-aid drinkers gave it up when she was forced to Tues-Sat last year. She finally threw in the towel in October and retired.
PEAK?

Over 5 hours of double-time for me last week and over 12 of overtime on my check. Not sure why the funny rating.

Heaviest day of the year NOW at our terminal- have a safe day!
DGO manager told me the other night that they are limiting the drivers to 11 hours a day or less, so no one will be out of hours come Saturday. They expect to have every driver with hours available to be in working.
I will be off, but thats they way PM RT is. We only need 3 drivers from our shift. Two to work a couple hours locally taking any extra freight to stations and one to the hub. Will be a light night.

They actually have an hours sheet up at building telling you how many hours you can work this week. With reset from last week I have 58 hours available and I've already worked 34 this week lol

Of course FedEx jobs should, but not McDonald's. That's a job for teenagers and snowflakes at a 8.00/hr minimums. Please.

If they run out of hours before Saturday wouldn't the first 8 hours worked on Monday be paid at straight time?

A bunch of us worked 12 on Monday to help the pm manager get the truck out.
You should've seen the anger in my am ops managers face when he saw that lol

If the employees are Tues-Sat, any hours worked on a scheduled day off (Monday) are OT.

I always thought you were eligible for OT pay for working your day off only if you worked all of your regular days?
That being said, I would imagine these people would still have some hours in this week left to work by Saturday. They may not be able to work a full day, but if they did work any hours on Saturday then they would in fact get their Monday as overtime.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong? Because we had a guy who thought he was shorted his Saturday overtime but he called in sick one day last week and I figured that was the reason.

Yep, that would cancel the ot. Taking a personal would as well.

We had several stations that didn't even bother opening Wednesday P1 cans, so everything is under control...Not.
It will be fine

So any massive failures around? Things were smooth sailing in my neck of the woods and I haven't heard of any big issues anywhere.
