I have no idea but I am sure some of the Joe Unions will have an answer for you when they log in later this evening.

It is a day of protest against production harassment. The local will hand out sticker and buttons.

how about we fly in the ceo and board for ups along with hoffa and the ibt doolittles and fill up a bunch of p-1000's with pup trailers,and send them all out over 9.5. then follow them around for a little bit of methods/production hide and watch .then call em in every morning and tell them what a piss poor job they've done and threaten there jobs ,belittle them,verbally abuse them,then put 11 hours work on them and let the games begin again .im sure they will love and appreciate working for the leaders in the industry and just be happy to have a job . o i forgot,they must recite the constitution,war and peace and all safety jargon word for word or be taken out of service. as scooby doo says "reep it real".

Was told today it's because of the ass kicking we've been getting for the last 18 months. My center is cutting routes like never before. Guys are going out with over 250 stops, yes OVER 250 stops. A good friend of mine punched out tonight at 10 pm because they cut TWO business routes and piled it on the route he was covering. Enough is enough.

No, the "day of action" as our BA said recently and I pointed out last week, is not about UPS cutting routes. lol That is pretty funny though, how the drivers think it is about them.

I could use a little of that action. Had 43 hours on the last check.

All we really need to do is to call for a nationwide "100% compliance day". 100% compliance with the contract, 100% compliance with every single solitary work method, 100% compliance with safety.
What would happen if every driver nationwide shut the truck down from noon to 1:00 for lunch? What would happen if every driver followed trace or EDD 100%? What would happen if every driver used 100% perfect Driver Release methods and walked off every single residential stop instead of turning around in the driveway?
Its funny to me how so many of the people I hear bitching about the union or the "lousy" contract are the same people I see skipping their lunches or taking them at 7:30 at night in order to get 10 hours worth of business deliveries done. They gripe about the weak 9.5 language, yet they perpetuate the problem rather than growing a pair and standing up for themselves.
If you dont like the contract that Hoffa negotiated for us, blame your coworkers who ratified the offer. We will only get the contract that we are willing to strike for. Hoffa knows this, and the company knows it too.
