[QUOTE="preloader, post: 155203, member: 7558"] LMAO You know, all i gotta say is, you think youve got it bad? I'll let you know how bad it is in my neck of the woods. I moved to a right to work state from a non right to work state. In my new building ive seen a BA exactly ONCE in 6 years, to come get votes. Otherwise, we have a shop steward driver represent the preload for the 20 miins between his arrival for work and his departure. In this time ive witnessed numerous counts of harassment by managment that were in no means anything but MEAN. Bid jobs going to under-senior members because higher skilled senior members were too valuable in other places. During peak this year we went 2 different shifts of 8 hours without a 10 minute break. Were told to clock out fora 30 min break on a couple occassions for a lull in work only to find out later that our manager feels this creats a split shift moving us to an 8 hour work day and needs to pay us overtime for only the hours over the 8 insted of 5. They DEMANDED everyone work for the saturday prior to X-mas and then paid us a fraction of our straight pay rates. The lists of offences goes on and on and on and on and well, the steward seems to not be able to care less. Then, they seem confused as to why no one wants to stay here? [/QUOTE]
