Forced Saturday 6 punch

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

In a nut shell, as long as the other guys are working 7 day weeks, UPS will attempt to stay competitive.

FedEx recently suspended operations to rural zip codes on Sundays.

I guess things are different everywhere but yes they do not count our lunch break towards our 60 but for some strange reason they count my paid break towards my 60

Uhhhhh because you are on the clock....smdh

I was told if you work Monday through Friday at least 8 hours per day and you have seniority you don’t have to work Saturday unless they send out 8 hour routes and force from the bottom up..Problem in my center is that they send out so many hours only or less than eight hour routes that ups kind of shoots themselves in the foot. If you don’t have at least 4 years seniority or your a 22.4 driver GOOD LUCK

We need more PVD drivers out there so these forced drivers have more Saturday hours available.

Preload has to be off the clock in 3.5 hours. Drivers have to work 60 hours a week year round.

Not true, if it is staffed by full time workers. ( WATMA )

My supplement were only guaranteed 4 on sat . So if we have less than 56 they force

My helper probably does more extra stops than most of these PVDs. they run them like the freaking slave trade. No breaks, No lunches, start times constantly changing, end times constantly changing, shorted milage etc.

Is there anyway i can force management to allow me six punches? Or 7 when they start sundays in my center? I don’t want to miss out on a single dot allowed hour.

 

[DOK]

Yes they an still force you to work. deal with it

No one is forced, you can choose not to show up Saturdays, nothing will happen only you might be heavier Monday. In our barn anyway.

Have to have atleast 8 hours. Demand your 8 and go home.

Then the PVD's are incredibly stupid. Why kill yourself? What do you care how much does or doesn't get done?
