[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1086405, member: 42270"] Supervisors working is highly, highly contextual and (like everything else) probably depends on a hub-by-hub or center-by-center basis. For example, I probably wouldn't write up a sup for clearing out the egress in a truck because it's a safety issue. But if the load was always getting blown out, night after night, and they were doing it to prevent having to assign another loader to the truck, that's a different story. My personal limit is ten minutes - I don't write up sups for covering for bathroom breaks (although technically any work they perform - unless required by a staffing problem resulting from "an act of God" ((not applicable in Local 705 because they have the best :censored: contract in the country)) is a violation) because it would lead to management harassing people for taking to long to pinch one off; besides, we (PT'ers) don't get paid breaks in my state because it's the [IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG]ing South. I'm not a people person and I hate talking on the phone but I learned to be more of a people person by necessity But if no one else is willing to at least stand up for the contract, you might be 'drafted'. :peaceful: Best of luck to ya and don't hesitate to drop me a PM on here if you have any questions.
