[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 1312659, member: 14176"] I can't put my hands on my old contract books at the moment, but I will assume you are correct and I am mistaken. What I wont do is back off of the notion that UPS being able to employ non-union off street drivers for more than 6 months of the year is excessive, and in conjunction with abusive company practices with part time air drivers and single day drivers, serves to keep part time workers from being elevated to full time positions. I have filed hundreds of grievances on this subject and have won thousands of dollars in settlements, but it is obvious to me that I have only scratched the surface as the company seems content to pay me off and continue to violate. As a package car driver I now realize that I am only a privy to a small fraction of the violations and in the end UPS finds it more financially viable to use these part time drivers and pay what grievances they get when caught, than to hire more full time drivers.
