22.4

[Box Ox]

What is the hybrid job?

Sounds like you load your own truck and then take out maybe 70-90 stops if you’re running tight residentials.

70-90 tight resis? Hell, I can already see 150 stops in my future in my building...

Since most complain about the OT.
The hybrid driver will reduce that a lot.

Reduce it too much. I know a lot of the older guys with thousands in the bank wouldn’t mind but the OT is my bread and butter. Still need that down payment for a house.

That's the idea
but you might end up doing preload for 1 hour and then taking %75 or even all of the usual stops, and delivering at a lower rate.
Basically the contract for 22.4 has to close a ton of loopholes in order to maintain normal driver rate when people are driving.

22.4 could be a dream come true if you got insider rate for preload ($26) and then driver rate ($34) when you go out, so it would be a split wage double shift, essentially.

I bet the 22.4 drivers will have a crazy schedule. something like delivering 11-14 hours on saturday and sunday. then work preload Monday- wednesday. And get about 40 hours per week. LOL. New preloaders will be scheduled thursday- Sunday.

Why not stick to drivers and preloaders?

A few contracts down the road they will have all of you replaced with cheaper help-----and you deserve it if you don't stand up now and stop this BS. The writing is on the wall people--wake up.

This is what I'm most afraid of UPS trying to accomplish. Legally solve the 60 hour limitation for drivers in basically the scummiest way possible. Good job, you busted out 60 hours for us this week driving. Now enjoy working inside the hub for the rest of the week at half your rate while you're butt ass tired.

Anything over 8 hrs for hybrid drivers should be quadruple time.

From what i heard it will be roughly 4 hours of preload, then 4 hours of deliveries. Local sort would be 4 hours delivery then 4 hours of package handling. But i know the company will twist this language somehow. Just what ive heard personally at my local.

If the planning and staffing was right this is the way it should work. Of course if the company is short delivery drivers you would be forced to delver only for up to 14 hours a day or 70 hours a week. And if the company is fat on FT drivers you would be forced to double on the sorts.

Don’t you think they’ll try to shift all the ground work to these hybrid drivers? Is there a limit to how many they can hire?

There needs to be language that protects the number of regular FT driving positions.

Apparently this was trashed. I still have a lot of reading to do. If anyone wants to correct me, or point me to another big "No" issue please do.

But yeah, from the email I just got no hybrid driver problem. Not happy with the pt pay increase however

What email are you getting?! Dude, come on!

[Middleagedbro]

1000%. Negotiation/weak contract apologists are playing checkers while the Company is playing chess.

The Union has ED US! Any idiot here who does not think there will be more 22.4's than regular drivers within 3 years should have there *&^%s cut off.

Hoffa got on his knees and serviced everyone in Atlanta. UPS will replace every top wage driver with a driver who tops out at $30/hour.

 

[Benben]

Here's a ING thought, JUST HIRE MORE FULL TIME DRIVERS SO WE ALL DON'T HAVE THE EXCESSIVE OVERTIME! Union gets more dues and we all get to see our families other than on Sundays!
