[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4340358, member: 63706"] Since they are offering, here is what the contract says you need to do: "Article 16 Section 2. Any employee desiring leave of absence from employment shall secure written permission from both the Union and the Employer. The request for leave of absence shall be made in writing at least thirty (30) days before the day on which the leave is sought to com- mence. If the leave is not foreseeable, the employee shall submit the written request as soon as possible and shall include an expla- nation why the leave was not foreseeable. The Employer and Union shall respond to the request in writing within ten (10) days after receiving the request. The maximum leave of absence shall be for ninety (90) days and may be extended for like periods. Permission for same must be secured from both the Union and the Employer." As for the work schedule issue the master says: "Article 22.4 (b) Paragraph 5. All 22.4 combination drivers shall be guaranteed eight (8) con- secutive hours of straight time pay per day, if reporting as sched- uled. All 22.4 combination drivers shall work a fve (5) consecutive day schedule of Tuesday through Saturday or Wednesday through Sunday. This paragraph shall supersede any Supplement, Rider, or Addendum on the same subject." Western Supplement "Article 20 Section 2 Paragraph (c) Start times shall be posted on the prior Friday of the week for which the starting times shall be effective. Employees who are ordered to report for work prior to said scheduled starting times shall receive time and one-half (1 ½) for all hours worked prior to their regular starting time.

Other scheduling issues should be addressed by your rider. [/QUOTE]
