Your buddy also doesn't work Sat. If I had the option of working Tuesday-Friday every week I wouldn't care much about this.
Tues-Sat, working Monday question

Sure you will, you will have that Monday off. Sometimes you will get a 3 day weekend when the July 4, falls on a Saturday.

I didn't think about that.
I'm going to bring that up in this morning's PCM.

What do I care, I'm high seniority! lol
Some supplements have language on that. We currently do not but it's going to be addressed this contract.
Ask @Turdferguson I believe his supplement let's you pick another day off during the week if the holiday falls on a Monday and you are a Tuesday through Saturday employee.

Thank you for your feedback. I'm still in shock that they want the very few Tues-Sat guys to come in and half the time we're laid off on Tuesdays anyway.
Can never figure this place out.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
The only reason we get Monday off after a Sunday holiday is so they don't have to pay us a 6 punch on Friday.

Half the problem is guys going home. If everyone would stay and take their 8, things would change.

Seeking some clarification here, I'm under the Atlantic area supplement. I'm stuck with the Tues - Sat schedule. Looking at the contract, it looks like I just get 8 hours standard pay and then 5 days of work? Saturday will not count as a 6th punch nor will Mondays hours count towards overtime? Just making sure I'm understanding it correctly.

The work week is a 7 day period so yes those hours count toward OT. And a 6th punch is OT all day long.

First Saturday ground weekend just passed here. Myself and another newer driver were told on Saturday that we are being forced in today (Monday) as well.
Get there and see that I have to cover a route that is mon-fri, but the driver voluntarily switched to t-s, so they apparently have to get it covered every Monday?
I talked to a steward and he tells me that they can’t do that, and basically to tell them to shove it next time they try and pull it.
Later Sup asks me if I want a day off this week. I told him I’ll be sleeping in this Sat lol. Not going to play this game!

"Call in on Monday" lmao

I am a Tue-Sat PH right now, and if they call me on Monday they offer time + 1/2 so I always come in. If you want the extra money, the 6th day is great especially because it's the busiest day of the week. Otherwise, I'd definitely advise to not answer your phone because you might get on a sup's smile*list if you say no (you have no time to think, they call as "Unknown", so you have been warned 
)
