[QUOTE="Braveheart, post: 273113, member: 5831"] Things in this contract that bother me. 1. GPS was used before to spy, now it will be used to fire. There will those who deserve some punishment and others that had legit reasons. 2. 8 hour weaker than ever. Will it ever really be honored like the old days? People forget that the current contract forced us to work as instructed and file after they screw you! 3. 9.5 commitee will it help or hurt? I get the feeling that adding yet another commitee reminds me of the government adding other layers of red tape. I can hear it now, sorry you bid on the route too bad, triple time denied! 4. Still no protection from managers changing your truck every other day to screw with you!!!!!! 5. I did the math and the extra nickle we get in our raises will take almost 5 years to recoup the $400 or more lost due to 6 month wait on second half of raises!!!! 6. I wonder how long it will take before the second half of raises go to pension and healthcare!! 7. Subcontracting loopholes added so what kind of pandora's box can we expect! 8. I'll wait to see all the pissed off cover drivers who will not get promoted due to NEVER reaching 200 reports!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 9. I bet the TAW will be screwed up as it ever was. Split shift just like before, only at least one of the shifts will be within the 4 HOUR window of regular start time!! 10. I can't wait to see all the people find out that the pro-rata we got for vacation and NOT for option days in the last contract is STILL BROKEN and you still will NOT get pro-rata for your option days in this contract either! How do you work say 140 reports after missing a couple months due to a work related injury and manage to get part of your vacations yet ZERO OPTION/SICK DAYS????!!!!???????? 11. The joke of how it will be harder and harder to get ANYBODY to come work for us part time with the new 12month/18month waiting period for the benefits. This coupled with the stagnant $8.50 starting pay! Don't forget they get no holiday pay now for a full year! Still no option days for three years too! 12. How many people will be dumped right before 60 probation days are up? 13. How many people will screw up and fail to get on the 9.5 list and be banned from filing grievances for 5 months and thereby have zero protection from excessive overtime!!!! More to come, time will tell? [/QUOTE]
