it's not that way here. Of course they know who to send back out and who not to
We had a guy in a neighboring center get sent back out in January and he was mad as hell,.He was running up an Icy driveway,slipped and broke his shoulder blade and collarbone. he was out for close to 5 month.
If they send me back out i'll stay out I'm tired,so i get very safety conscious and it may take my full 14 hours to get done
Back first

Teamsters Central Region Supplemental Agreement
ARTICLE 19-MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 6
Drivers shall not be disciplined for refusing to go back out on the
street once they have returned to the building, after having completed
their full day’s work.
The only problem is that the OP stated that he received a message at 6:30 PM on his DIAD before returning to the building. If he is in the Central, Buster cannot discipline him for refusing to go back out, but they can "try" to discipline him for failure to follow regarding the message to go help out another driver.

nowhere special
I did have to go back out if I got a message about it before getting back to the building. If they wait until I'm back they can ask but not force someone to go back out. I had one time they messed up and told me I had to deliver more stops after I got back and they didn't listen when I told them it would be over 10 hours before I got in the first time. When I got back everyone else was in and gone and stops were still sitting to be delivered. I had to go back out even though it was more than a 12 hour day.

It seems to me that this is the worst year for all around forced OT. It's been bad at times before, but it seems now more like the new business model. My feeling is that they believe it will encourage those who are eligible to retire but want to wait, to not stay one day longer, so the company can utilize a whole continent of 4 year half priced rookies to replace the top rate drivers. It's not rocket science, it's UPS.

Oh Yeah
Call in at least an hour before shift and tell them your not coming in and your using a sick day or an optional. Before they ask another question ill see you tomorrow and hang up. Its that simple and they will know next time hopefully to not give you the bs.

If this were to ever become reality, and it will, you would still only work 5 days a week.

Our supplement already has language on alternate work weeks.
