[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 410796, member: 198"] In the Southern Supplement we are guaranteed 8 hours at our current driver pay. We can bump two part-timers and work double shifts in the hub/center. After seven consecutive days of being laid off from driving the pay rate goes to what ever it would be in the hub/center. For example: since you were hired in 1993 your pay rate would be whatever a part-timer hired in 1993 would be making at this point. If you are laid off 6 days and then drive the seventh day and then get laid off again you'd still be at your driver rate while working inside. That is the way I understood the language anyway. Our center isn't known for lay offs. We've always went down the seniority list and asked drivers if they wanted the day off and there is always plenty of people wanting an extra day off. I've only had to work inside three or four times sine I've been full-time. I worked preload/reload and also preload/air driving. On day I worked hours only but was able to get 6.5 hours. The sups don't like laid off drivers running air because we show up as extra routes no matter how many hours we work and IE gives them hell for it. Just remember.....you are guaranteed 8 hours. That's how it is in the Southern Supplement anyway. [/QUOTE]
