Am I the only one who caught this proposal? In section 25 they’re asking the company to call back all drivers by 9pm and no one can be disciplined for missed pieces. EVEN in peak!
Could this be the section that causes the strike?
Or are they trolling?
When does free period end? Our center is still using all drivers to run full routes. Do drivers that work after free period get peak days counted if they’re still driving? Or at least the days leading up to peak? Thanks in advance
Since peak all call tags in my building that have always been RS3 are now always RS1. Anyone know what's going on? It's a little annoying because I used to be able to say I'll be back tomorrow. Now I have to deal with a screaming customer every time they want me to wait.
