Where they want you to go
Nowhere now but I have went on multiple trips and I don’t always want to go! Just wondering if you could lose your job for not going

Yes, I know I'm working late.
Tell your current employees you are going on "special assignment". Always worked for my sups and made them feel important. Came back 10 lbs lighter so it's a win win.

they can't force you, you can refuse when push comes to shove but your career will fall off a cliff for 5-10 years minimum
if you dont have kids, just take your tampon out and go, just the same old
in a different place

You will do what you are told and you will like it. When they tell you to jump, your response should be “How high?”. If there are any issues with your assignment the door is over there. Go take that crap to Amazon and see what they tell you.
All jokes aside, if you have any issues with management request that a steward be present. Call the union hall and file a grievance if necessary. Good luck.

The original poster was talking about full time supervisors. In this case, having a steward present is a pretty novel tactic. Might just work.

Why would they force you out of state when your own operation is understaffed and barely holding it’s own?
It depends on the weather...we been pretty lucky here, but we are due.
If people ship early instead of waiting for the last minute we might have escaped this potential pandemic disaster.

Do you need an air compressor or tire gauge
Raising kids is difficult

They cannot force you. But most sups cave under the pressure and go. I have refused a few times. Got the usual 'You have to', to which I apologized and again reiterated I wasn't going due to kids, etc. You'll never get fired for it. They may torture you in other ways but you aren't getting fired for it.

Sure can. Isn’t being in management fun? One of our feeder on roads got sent to Hartford last year at peak when the place got decimated by COVID. This on road was dealing with a very ill family member at the time, and upper management didn’t have on
to give.

You just absolutely nailed it! When I first started and someone started a conversation with "Hey, Partner." I knew he or she was going to ask me to do something I had no time for and didn't want to do, but I would do it anyway.
Thats exactly right .....When we went went public and changed our name that was the point where the culture started changing...Most of the leadership who effected going public quickly retired, bailed out and left the rest of us out to dry.....With the younger management not having a defined pension meaning ups doesn't want them long term. Its still bitter knowing that the general public can buy our stock. Going public was a betrayal.......

agree with everything you said except the pension bit
pensions are for poor people, 401k are INSANELY superior in every way
