Definitely threw a wrench in things, but it was more about economics than a virus in my opinion.
I will say we were super essential and they worked us like dogs that year lol

UPS drivers too scared to strike
If we did go on strike all the rabbits would be so scared begging to run routes for management to let them come in

It's a vicious cycle
I don't understand why not signing up for 9.5 is bad for people that do sign up for it. why should I give up overtime if I'm ok with it? there's lots of people in america that love getting overtime. like police detectives when they arrest a suspect end up working a 22hour shift and make like 4 grand in a single day. now I'm not saying there's something wrong with you if you don't love overtime, i'm sure it's because you'd rather spend time with your family than make a dollar a minute. but how does me making a dollar a minute hurt you? why can't the demand be, give the 14 hour days to the drivers who want it and give the work life balance to the workers who want that? why do we all have to want the same thing?

Nothing wrong with your thought process. The problem is the company generally will not comply.

Well, I didn’t work the day after Thanksgiving so there’s that.
It's hard to pass up that money but it does get old sometimes

Proud of you union brother , they brought all our drivers in for 2 hrs and no one demanded 8.
I demanded my 8 and told I wasn’t needed

I definitely agree with that and when I tell you, I worked nine hours on New Year’s Eve. I really use the term work very loosely. I don’t even know why we bother with that day. What a waste of time and money for the company.
Look at all those expensive air packages you're delivering that day
