What time you getting home on Saturday?
Tues-Sat, working Monday question

Our center is literally falling apart since Saturday ground started...Monday is always absolutely atrocious and the rest of the week worse than it used to be...but don't hire more drivers that would be too easy
30 drivers on Saturday does not make for a light Saturday. 30 fewer drivers on Monday does not make for a light Monday.
Here at least, Monday - Friday employees make time and a half on Saturday and double time on Sunday. Sunday - Thursday employees make time and a half on Friday and double time on Saturday. So it would make sense for Tuesday - Saturday employees to make time and a half on Sunday and double on mondays.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Only if it's actually the 7th consecutive day working.
Here Monday would be straight time because it's the first day of a new week. Then Saturday would be time and a half

Sunday would be the first day of the pay period.

Monday would be the First day WORKED of a new week in this scenario.

Is it mine
It does not matter here, a seventh day punch will pay double whether it is the only day worked, the 2nd day worked, the 7th day worked, etc.
If you work Tuesday to Saturday then Monday is your new Sunday.
In all fairness they have not implemented Saturdays here. But I find it hard to believe that they would get away with paying us differently from the other hourlies.

We have Saturday here. If you are a M-friend driver and you work Saturday you're at time and a half no matter how many days you work M-friend.
If you are T-S and work Monday you are straight time though Saturday would be time and a half because of a 6th day punch. That's how our contract is written. I'm not saying it's fair but that's how it is at this time.
You may want to read your contract because it may be the same.

M-friend driver, work Saturday, time and a half regardless of hours worked. T-S driver, work Monday, time and a half regardless of hours worked. That's how it's been here.

In our supplement...M-friend driver who voluntarily takes a day off gets strait time if he works Saturday.
And if Saturday is forced, they can force those who took a day off before anyone who worked all 5 days.
So all the drivers who are used to working 4 days (taking a day off) will likely be forced on Saturday here, if Saturdays are understaffed.
I am not sure if the BA has worked out the situation where a driver is sent home for lack of work M-friend and then is forced S.
There is no such thing as "on call" here. You are forced or not forced into an extra day ahead of time. And if they don't work you after they say you are forced you get your guarantee pay.

Can some explain how adding Saturday deliveries creates more driver jobs please.
Just great we'll be taking the absolute worst routes on Friday because the regulars maxed out their hours by thursday.. oh I got an 8 hour today, can I go home and have someone do my route? Sure what else do you want a slurpy?
Then crap on Saturday with a message saying we have vacations for next week can work Monday? I can see already tuesday- Saturday people are going to be royale screwed.

Because they can't use the current staffing of M-Fri drivers to deliver Saturdays. The overlap days are Tue-Fri, more availablity to take days off because there will be more FT drivers on staff.
