[QUOTE="JustDeliverIt, post: 5756704, member: 68456"] And that is the main issue here. Anyone who works here knows that they violate the contract when it benefits them and we are responsible to hold them accountable. If they can get away with it once, they will kick the can down the road and try again next year but on a larger scale. Try with a few locals this year, if it works try again this summer when max vacations hit. Worked again, try again at peak but more locals. Both sides agreed to the negotiated contract. The company had months from the time it was ratified, not to mention that no sixth punch was one of the first things put out there that was agreed upon. Any foresight by the company would have had them planning from that point. Company can offer double or triple time if they really want more volunteers. They could have hired and started training drivers sooner. They choose not to do many things that led them to this point. It’s on them. The union should stand behind the contract they negotiated and the members that voted and ratified it. [/QUOTE]
