That’s Craptacular
Here it's followed for the most part. In my old local...it was seniority gives you the right to work....etc.

The other thing is - it's one day. Usually, about 40% of deliveries were picked up 1 day away, so today's delivery is everything further than that plus Christmas Eve pickups. Today is the biggest impact of that.
I'm sure with pickups today being heavier than normal (people worked on 12/26, packages sat, then they worked 12/27) they won't tell you the same thing tomorrow.

They schedule our physicals at 8:00 AM at a nearby facility. We can usually get renewed on a workday without being late for our start time.

Our center is so desperate for preloaders that they're practically begging the seasonal help to stay on full-time.

Appears the OP is on Preload (start time 3 AM) and there was not enough work for full staffing.
The date of hire would be useful info to have..

Casuals have no seniority. They are not in the union.

I mean im still new by most standards here (started in June or July), but just on the pick next to mine I have seen no less than 10 people come and go. If someone works all through peak and shows up and does decent enough its strange to me that they would just tell them to take a hike, especially with our turnover rate. UPS really does blow my mind daily though.

Sorry.. I thought the word casual was being replaced for "swing driver"

I was hired Nov 1st (I know it's the "free" period) but was told I was a "Permanent Part Time" hire by HR (yes, I know they lie all the time....I was warned). The part that gets me is that I never got a phone call to tell me NOT to come in. So, I drove back from out of town to report to work this morning (3am) just to be told to go home. Ok, so be it, but what a crappy way to treat an employee. I can't believe you guys put up with this treatment year after year and tell me to just get used to it.

I drove in from out of town and left my family (you do remember that it's Christmas don't you). They couldn't have the decency to call me and tell me not to come in? Scumbags!

Yeah b/c being mistreated is whining right. You're the sucker for not having high enough standards in life to NOT be treated this way.

I'm not understanding why you're acting all hurt like a jilted lover... You knew what time it was. You said yourself that you researched it and everyone warned you.

Why didn't you ask about working BEFOREHAND? That might have saved you a trip.

They have to give you at least 3.5 hours if you show up on time. 4 hours some places. Pull up your socks and tuck in your rocks. It's go time.
