The OP is afforded the opportunity, to complete his work assignment.
Kicking him off the clock (at his guarantee) and then.... trying to say the "drivers"
will finish the the work.... is BS.
-Bug-
Fair enough, but how is it determined, whether the OP was or was not afforded the opportunity to complete his assignment?
If anyone thinks management "wins" by having a $13/hr preloader with four cars go home in place of four $50/hr (they're already going into OT) drivers each wrapping up their own cars, well, no. Mgmt knows this.
Also, the driver AM time is charged back to the preload, so it's not "numbers". Preload Mgmt gets hit twice for this decision. A preload manager who does this once, tends not to do it twice after the "meeting".
No one should ever work off the clock for any reason, period.
