If he does a Friday wedding he is cheap and shouldn't be your friend anyway.

I said out of state wedding. Most people that have to travel for a wedding need the Friday off. You must want to work until 8:00 at night and then travel that night for a Saturday wedding.

You can be anywhere in the country in 4 or 5 hours. Just sayin.

Maybe on your private jet. Most have a drive to an airport. Wait at least an hour to get on the plane...then wait until the plane starts moving... a good 45 minutes to get off the plane get luggage...

Easy circumstances for someone travelling out of state for a Saturday wedding while punching out at 8pm.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I 05 every day. If they dispatch me with more work, l message the center through Diad that I need my air and ground pick up.

About 15 years ago I scanned an
ARS during lunch. The next day I was informed that they were changing my 1/2 hour lunch into at 22 min lunch.

 

[Article 3]

a couple of years back dot passed a law stating every driver had to take a 30 minute break in a 8 hour shift,UPS package car driver was exempt because we do not travel 150 miles from are centers. That being said if someone was to have a fatal accident and they look at your driving hours and you did not take a break you most likely me terminated,UPS will be sued, take your break, if nothing else for safety. Being dead or with out a job will not help your family life.

150 miles "AS THE CROW FLIES". Not just 150 miles. That's what the law says.

Did you enter a meal break in your DIAD and then work through it?

 

[PCM]

How do drivers get away with working while on lunch. Scanning while on break generates a report. Are these drivers falsifying information?

U don't get away with it I did it and just got terminated I'm terrified I won't get my job back I wasn't trying to falsify I'm a new driver I was worried about not getting all my businesses done does anyone know anything about this?

 

[PCM]

Did you enter a meal break in your DIAD and then work through it?

Yes

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Yes

Falsification.

Buh-bye.

 

[PCM]

Yes

It was stupid I know but I'm so scared I wasn't trying to hurt anything I'm feel stupid

They may let you sit home for a week or so and then bring you back on a time served suspension.

What have your shop steward and/or BA told you?

 

[Wally]

Yes

Why?

He is useless but the union vp is handling it now he told me he has had three the last week and they were out for two weeks I just am afraid im going to be the one they make an example of and if it goes to panel I'm done

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

It won’t go to panel.

You are lucky in that we are nearing Peak and we need all the drivers that we can get.
