[QUOTE="WTFm8, post: 3801263, member: 73537"] ... wrong. You’re part of a union, the union is only as strong as the members and how much they are a team and work together. Educate your brothers/sisters of the below: Compensation comes from working longer on the clock. OR, you know, they’d be forced to hire more people to get job done and you’d possibly be responsible for ‘only’ 3 trucks instead. If drivers and/or supervisors are consistantly helping preload day in and day out for weeks or months at a time, you should all be filing grievances to get more bargaining unit employees. You should be approaching stewards to have drivers helping come to a stop as they’re stealing hours from PT employees. Once they realize they can’t get or keep people at the pay, they’d be forced to up the PT pay and/or start preload earlier. It’s management/supervisors job to make you fear discipline and get you to do the most work they can. It’s your job to follow the methods and work safe. If you follow the methods and relocate or write HINS, you’ll have less stress and be able to place the packages more efficiently. If management starts harassing about numbers or over-supervision, you simply file art 37 grievance. Never loose your cool or cuss, treat them with respect... it really pisses some of them off if they can’t get a rise out of you. [/QUOTE]
