[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 3811173, member: 11234"] Do you really think it's that personal? You have delusions of grandeur. Get over yourselves. Here's the real item: Everyone knew the contract wasn't being followed, but the original situation was a tit for tat. Management would have reliable trained drivers on Saturday, and drivers were happy getting OT on Saturday and not demanding 8. For as long as it stayed that way, don't fix what's not broken. Having reliable trained drivers is relatively inexpensive. Management and labor were both happy. Once the steward demanded 8, he/she was within their rights. But, if you think management was the least bit upset - they weren't. You simply changed the cost equation. Now instead of a 4 hour OT day, mgmt was paying 8, and that's too much money on the cost plan. Did you really think that increasing cost to that degree shouldn't produce a reaction? So, now they had to get off their rear end and hire the PTers. That's what labor wants, that's what the contract says, that's what we do. Not a big deal really. [/QUOTE]
