The Six day workweek (POLL)

Hows it going out there

Can't be forced a 6th day in 344

I've been getting 10-13 hours each day.
Haven't heard anything about working Saturday in 3 weeks.

 

[Hot Carl]

I just recently qualified so there isn't much I can do being so low on the totem pole. The money's good and Saturdays are typically nice, easy days. That and I'm already used to working this much since I always had a 2nd job during my preload years. But working this much and only ever having 1 day off a week does wear on you after a while.

any form of strength exercise will not recover without a 60-hour reset, It's a huge problem that, like most things here at UPS, can be solved by dropping anchor like you are too weak to lift 20 pounds in the first place.

Starting to burn out due to the 100+ degree heat and 225+ stop count.

I thought about painting the 2 service doors on my workshop yesterday and today. That's about all I've done this week.

What’s bull is that I went in Monday to max out hours that way I don’t have to either go in on Saturday or stay out for long but nooooo

they started having clean up drivers pull stops off us in order for us to get back in quick

[21Savage]

Quit crying. Work or don't. The weak will disappear

Cashing checks, you?

 

[Two Tokes]

That's right it is a easy money day

Get paid almost a dollar an hour to deliver a bunch of amazon, target, and kohl's bs

 

[Whither]

I've called off 8 of the last 9 times they've 'required' me to work a 6th punch. I'm not the only one refusing to sacrifice weekends either. So far no attempts at discipline against any of us. I decided that, if the company pushes I will shove back all the way to panel. No one signed up to work 6 days a week all year long, and the company is well aware that working us into the ground hikes our chances of having accidents and injuries.

Fixed it for you.

 

[Two Tokes]

Fixed it for you.

Thanks LOL
A dollar an hour, no wonder the stock is up so much

 

[Richard Harrow]

No force-ins for M-friend in 177.

You weak arse locals need to man up. Grow a pair and get no 6th day work in the supplment.
