[QUOTE="LS Nerd, post: 2384007, member: 63822"] Thanks for the replies. I'm already asking my union rep. Our center is small, and our Local Sort is one person per job, with those people taking on additional duties. We even have a responder already, though they're a cover driver as well and will likely not be in our sort throughout peak season. [USER=62099]@UniteandWin[/USER] I've been trying to find something in the Teamster book relating to this, but I can't seem to find literally anything relating to trips like this. Though perhaps I'm not sure where to look. I've been going through health and safety sections but still don't see anything about transportation. The vehicle is reliable enough for transportation to work and home, and I have a few backup plans just in case. Laughably, my center manager even commented that I work so hard to be at work on time each day that 'If anyone here ever needs to take you to work, I know you'll make sure they're 10 minutes early!' Oh, and @[URL='http://www.browncafe.com/community/members/upstatenyupser.12570/']UpstateNYUPSer[/URL], I'd be going up there and staying for several days in a hotel UPS rents, and then reimbursed afterwards on food, assumingly. (Though honestly having less than a week to get funds for it together, and the fact I -only- work this one job, it's financially worrying as well even if the cost of the hotel is a nonissue. But it'll probably be at least a week until I'd be reimbursed.) A coworker had a similar issue for cover driver school for transportation, but he was over 25 and the cost of renting a car was way more reasonable. And for the audit school, a supervisor was sent too so a vehicle was rented for the both of us together. [/QUOTE]
