Exactly...if that's all they can do over and over again then the Union is doing their jobs...could be much worse.They recycle their bull

That’s exactly why a union is necessary at UPS. They would have plowed us under a long time ago without the Teamsters.

Why use bargaining power to get something written into the contract that is already protected by law? I'd prefer to focus on improvements

I agree but gets so old having to harp on the same stuff over and over...these two things are basic
that should already be rock solid....and obviously they aren't that protected if they continuously keep bringing it up over and over again.

Had a mgr one time say that it would be very different here if there wasn't a union...as in them being much more easy going and laid back. I almost couldn't stop laughing at that comment....NWIF would that EVER be the case.

The only time I eat out is when my on road buys me lunch or I buy my helper lunch. So maybe 3 times a year. Luckily I have restrooms available all over where I can scrub a dub pre muck.

The first meeting I had with my current manager was because he called me in to question me about how far I drove to meal on the clock. I told him that punching out and then driving to lunch was a violation of FMCSA rules. He said he had never heard of it and even had me repeat the acronym "EFF...M...C...S...A..." so that he could write it down to Google it after the meeting. Point being management has no clue what the law is until you educate them. We go over the same basicI agree but gets so old having to harp on the same stuff over and over...these two things are basic
every couple years because we get new manager who knows nothing every couple years. If it was written into the contract it wouldn't be any different, management also has no freaking clue what that says until you show them.
