[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1453603, member: 37112"] Upon further review the touchdown appears to be a fumble, picked up and returned by El Heffe. Speaking of inaccurate and misleading legalese, and as the new lawyer on BC, you should know that Jimmy Jr is inaccurate as James P Hoffa's middle name would need to be Riddle not Phillip in order to be a Jr. Also the CRT calls holidays "named" not legal. Hate to nitpick but lack of clarity can get us off track. On to the show... UPS has management rights to operate whenever they deem it necessary without input from the IBT (excepting Labor Day) and Teamsters are the bargaining unit that provides that service. A more clearly worded Art 15 Sec 1 would read "A regular seniority employee shall not be required to work on the following eight (8) named holidays [B]and receive pay[/B]..." Unfortunately it is a bit ambiguous but that ambiguity is clarified in Sec 4, but it does not say you'll never work on a holiday. By reading the first two paragraphs of Sec 1 in their entirety demonstrates the conditions needed to be met in order to receive [U]pay[/U] if you don't work. That is really all Sec 1 refers to. Read it again very carefully. Sec 4's existence would be unnecessary if there was no allowance to work on a holiday. Both these Sections have been in the CRT at least since 1973.
