The new bill, which is being sponsored by Republican Van Wanggaard in the State Senate alongside Born in the Assembly, would add a provision to the “day of rest” law that could effectively nullify it. The bill would create an exemption that would allow employees to “voluntarily choose” to slave away for seven days in a row without at least twenty-four hours of rest.
A lot of people in health care work a 7/70 schedule. 7 days 10 hours a day. Then they get a week off.
One of my sons works 6 days a week now in a non-RTW state.What's the matter with working 7 days a week ?
For years I did a 6 day week at UPS .
And my rewards is that I will be able to retire while I'm still young .
...And it won't effect UPS employees in Wisconsin since we don't have factories at UPS.
What labor rights?Do you disagree that there is a consistent right-wing push to dismantle labor rights?
All the gains from protests and worker mobilization/unionization in the first 'gilded age' are now being dismantled in this second 'gilded age'.
Discuss.
What labor rights?
Weekends?

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see UPS start Sunday deliveries next contract. USPS is already delivering Amazon Prime on Sundays.
Well, you gotta keep up with your competitors I guess.I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see UPS start Sunday deliveries next contract. USPS is already delivering Amazon Prime on Sundays.
I don't mind working Saturday Air, it's easy money and otherwise I would probably just sleep through the morning. I wouldn't mind switching a Saturday out for a Sunday every now and then. As long as the employee chooses to work, I don't see any problem with it.Well, you gotta keep up with your competitors I guess.

Read your supplement----I would be bet that it already has language for an alternate work schedule.
My building has Tue thru Sat Feeder runs and a Sun thru Thur Day sort. I have routinely worked Mon thru Sat for more then 20 years.Read your supplement----I would be bet that it already has language for an alternate work schedule.
Blue Label was a second day service only to selective zip codes .When I first came to work for UPS, I worked 11 pm to 8 am getting off on Saturday morning. About 4 am the Preload was complete and by 6 am all UPS vehicles including feeders were parked inside and my last job of the morning was to power down all lights at the electrical panels and lock all doors. Just after 8 am, the feeder dispatch sup, the last auto mechanic and myself would leave being the last ones out and the building would remain empty until Monday morning about 3 am when the dayshift PE crew came in to turn on the lights, unlock the doors and hit the coffee machine.
Then something called Next Day Air started and everything changed. I sure miss those simple days.
Anybody remember Blue Label?
