Supervisors at center not having routes set before start time saying we can't bump

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I have no problem working 10+ hours a day if need be. Don’t necessarily want to, but I know what I signed up for. But part of that was a full weekend. My time with my family on Saturday and Sunday is worth more than any 6th punch is going to pay.

All that I can tell you the few rare times that I do it I Bank all that money

What’s the matter? You don’t want go out on an unfamiliar route on your 6th day of work?

Shove your overtime!

I don’t want to go out on my route much less somewhere I don’t know. They tried pulling that last weekend with us. They actually got up to me, sent me a message Thursday afternoon saying I was staffed for Saturday. Told them no thanks, not coming in. Tried to say we would have to use a sick day, can’t on a 6th punch. Also heard they were going to try and not pay us for the holiday but it’s in my time card as paid. They really don’t have any teeth, just hoping they get a couple guys to cave.

Other guys will say that it’s great money, getting $600 for the day. If they work 42 hours during the week so the extra 8 looks good. I’m 50+ hours in 5 days so I get the money and 2 days off.

I haven't done it this year and I don't know if I'll ever do it again, I'm running out of steam

If they did that (aside from the argument of seniority vs regular work day), they would never get any RPCD’s to volunteer. Why would I ever choose to come in and not deliver the area I’m in all week. On top of that, a driver with 15 years less seniority takes it while I’m in the hood.

Not that I would ever sign up, but that would be the reason to definitely never do it.

In your opinion. Do you think RPCD deserves these type of favors?

I haven’t done either so far this year, but if I do, I will go in and take the route I want and put an eight hour day.

That's a given

Apparently some people don’t believe that lol

22.4s can't bid a route anyways

That’s not true at least not everywhere. Here that is how you jump up either bid a utility route or a route. Had a whopping four 22.4s win their own route. But we have never hit the 25% either

They usually leave them on the same routes here but they do not have any rights if they tell them to go run something else

Yep 22.4s cannot bird routes here, I’m shocked they can do it anywhere.

Yes zero rights here. They work till the sun goes down.

We are going to have 12 22.4s hit top rate in the new year. Criminal

Hopefully 22.4 will be gone in a couple months

PVD drivers?

I see both sides honestly. Like @Thebrownblob said, vague language leads to different interpretations. All I will say is that if I am coming in on a 6th punch you can be damn sure I’m running my area or I’m not working. I’ve put my time in and not getting bumped by someone 10+ years less than me that doesn’t have bidding rights. Just the way I look at it.
