After peak is too late. People here already feel like the contract doesn't matter. Our members cohesiveness and faith in the union are waning daily. If that is the plan he should tell the membership now instead of leaving us guessing.

About an hour past start time I am still at the building waiting to be told what to do. I think all drivers have left a while ago. Going great so far.

Exactly. Easy money.
But it was my choice. I get the guys who are pissed about being "forced" and support our brothers.

True.
You think they have any control? They do exactly as they are told by the higher ups. And these higher ups will never brown up and go out and deliver.

Fact check: you’re wrong. They are staffed 20% under plan.

Did it ever? UPS always did what they wanted until it was grieved and they were forced to abide by the contract. New language here. Same old same old applies.
It still beats the alternative. Without a Union, well, I think you know the answer.
Then SOB would have to make a commitment, one way or another. If nothing else, he is also a politician. He wants to get through the next 3 weeks and then he will come out and lay down the law, per se.

It's new language and UPS had 60 days to figure it out. I am backing the Union in extending that 60 day period because there are not really any alternatives. Union through and through, you're damn right.
Well I guess his packages and sit inside the building then
There are alternatives.
You just don’t like them.
It’s not like officially endorsing UPS breaking the contract sets a horrible precedent, or anything.
You’re making a lot of unfair assumptions.

A simple one is they could have hired the 20% of seasonals they decided not to. 100 driver planned centers are working 80drivers in these areas. Do some simple math
80driver x 65hrs each = 5,200hrs
5200hrs / 100 planned drivers = 52hours

Most of us just want the day to be voluntary like agreed. Shock yo trucker clock but some I’ve talked to that had planned to volunteer all peak are still upset due to principle not personal advantage.

Right now in my area the company is working sups on Saturdays claiming they are exhausting all options and they need to work because they can't get enough volunteers.
My local has told them that's BS. They have the ability to hire as many seasonals as they need for peak. If they under staffed that's their fault and not exhausting all options.
Company just doesn't want to hire and as always expects the union to take the short end of the stick to help then out.
