Not my grievances so I don't care. Just pointing out how useless he is.
UPS is starving drivers and mass are quitting!

It’s a lot more fun to come on here and complain to strangers
If I gave up as easily as some of these people do I wouldn't have made my education transfer go through. HR lied to me. Repeatedly. My BA said we just have to wait and we'll file a grievance as the semester gets closer.
I got fed up and through that UPSers social media thing they briefly had I found the head of HR for the district I wanted to transfer to and her phone number. Called her up, left a message. She got back to me the same day. The next day, less than 24 hours after I made that call, one of her lackeys called me with a start date and time at my soon to be new center.
Where would I be if I gave up so easily...don't be afraid to go over people's heads.

Exactly. Similar if someone files a legitimate 9.5 grievance and kept a copy, and a business agent never heard it, and they were owed money. I would be faxing that copy to the president of the local, president of the international, and the NL RB. I can guarantee your phone calls will be made within a day. Matter fact, did just that with the previous administration at my local.
For what it's worth, I'm not blaming my BA. I think he really felt powerless and made the calls he could. The transfer language leaves a lot to be desired and it's a time sensitive grievance, since you're
ed if your transfer hasn't happened but the semester started.Fortunately I called someone high enough in the company who actually wanted to bring me to one of her centers who made it happen.

Now that seems more likely
I was under the impression that as long as there aren't more than 25% of the total drivers in a center being 22.4 than the company isn't violating the contract....
I will file then. I understand that by filing it shows unity and the willingness to hold the company accountable but I see them just doing nothing about it until the current contract expires.
,
Also, 22.4s can't bid on routes. I see where you're going with it but routes are just getting taken over by another RPCD when 4 of our center's drivers have retired in the last thee and a half years.

Here, when is 22.4, gets moved to RPCDs they just become the lowest seniority cover driver. They don’t get a route. But they are able to bid on routes after that.
Yes that is how it's intended but that's not what's happening.

Grievances should be filed immediately. That’s a clear violation of the contract if they are not replacing protected RPCDs.

It's just his shtick.

20% total drivers being 22.4.
The number of 22.4s cannot exceed 25% of the number of RPCDs.

Utility drivers.
My center sounds similar. We have 100 driver, 20 22.4's and around 10 utility drivers, rpcds without a route. In three years I've seen 3 22.4's move up.
When someone retires the chain of routes posted usually stops when a utility driver decided to take it. Because we are not at the 25%. That utility drivers spot is not filled
@Over70irregs Wait for it........ next question to you will be "what's a fax???"

It is sweet. Most of the lower seniority air drivers would love to see me retire. Or die. LOL
