[QUOTE="Mrs. UPS, post: 350154, member: 15248"] We never knew this. I've never heard the term "circle out" but I do know he never agreed to go home on ANY day. Here is how it has been working since he's been back in preload (this past month). He goes into work at 3am. The preload sup either lets him work or sends him straight home. Then after about a week the sup told him to call him every morning around 2am and see if there was enough work for him to come in. So on average he has been working maybe one day a week. The whole time he was driving he was making driver pay. He started at $23.11 and yes he did get the yearly increases. When he drives now I believe the hourly rate is $23.96. Now that he's in the warehouse he is making $10.50 an hour. But there have been 3-4 times that at the end of the shift they've told him to come drive the next day and when he drives he makes the 23.96 again for those hours. This is from one of his recent checks: [COLOR=black][FONT='Courier New']- CURRENT PAY RATE 10.50 [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT='Arial','sans-serif'] [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT='Courier New']- REGULAR 10.50 13.09 137.45 [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT='Arial','sans-serif'][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT='Courier New']- REGULAR 23.96 8.00 191.68 [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT='Arial','sans-serif'] [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT='Courier New']- OVERTIME 35.94 1.11 39.89 [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT='Arial','sans-serif'][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT='Courier New']- TOTAL HOURS WORKED 22.20 [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT='Arial','sans-serif'][/FONT][/COLOR] Notice how it says current rate of pay 10.50? That has always said that. The whole 2 years. He was always classified as pre-load according to the HR people. Even though he neevr worked it. I'm pretty certain he's always gotten part time benefits. Every time we get the packet in the mail from Aetna, it says part time employees on it. As for his start date he has verified it. They say it is the day he started 2 years ago. In fact, they're stilla cting like this preload thing is just for now while volume is low. They talk to him as if he's a driver. For example, he doesnt have his own trucks or whatever in preload. When he works in there he just helps out the regular preload guys. Like he's just a helper or something. I feel like he's in limbo at UPS. Not a driver, but not in preload. He has not helped one bit. My husband went to him way back when he was still driving, but they were sending him home 2-3 days a week. At first the steward was all gung-ho, said he'd put a call in and find out why they weren't working him. When he still kept getting sent home, he went to the steward again. Again he said he'd call.

Several times since we've called him, left messages, tried to pop in and see him and he's never available and he never returns our calls either. We have no help from the union. Yet just this week they took out dues which left us with a whopping $40.06 net pay. I just don't see how that could be right. Since reading your last few posts I have showed all of this to mu husband and he's all set to go in on Monday morning and demand some answers. I think he just feels in over his head, be/c they fast talk him and always by the end of the day he's doubting if what we read in the agreement is right. They're certainly very good at manipulation at UPS. This would be A LOT.
