I’ve worked 59.57 hours this week, and now I’m forced to work Saturday. Now what?

I don't know but our local and our center that we're in they cannot force you to work a Six-Day it's in the contract they have to go by the bottom of the seniority list and if you have a 7 with 70 to 120 people and that is just an example they have to go from the bottom then call union if you don't believe me. If you know the number to the hall?

This cracks me up. Especially since you're notorious for it lol!

Wait... What are you saying?
You say you can't be forced in but then go on to say they have to go from the bottom up on seniority list.
I am completely confused. What supplemental agreement are you?

Your guess is wrong.
Back on topic- did we ever get an answer to this? In my (admittedly limited) experience the co. takes hours of service relatively seriously. If the OP is still around I’d like to know what happened.

No regular package car driver red circled under Article 22.4(b)
will be forced to work on a day off and exceed sixty (60) hours
unless he has a full eight (8) hours of duty available
Please can I get explanation for this
If I have 54 h (Monday to Friday) they can't force me if 8 h is not available... Correct?

not true in Cali. ALL on duty time is on the 60-70 rule. paid breaks, sitting around waiting on your load, unloading time. any paid time.
If I were you kid, I would ask a senior driver if you are on a 60-70 rule.
It's your responsibility to obey FEDeral DOT laws which supercedes anything UPS tells you even to the point of disobeying a direct order.
How do I know?
Had many arguments with dispatchers, on road supes, feeder managers and even the center manager on this when I ran out of hours on snow nights. They had to pick me up.
Some drivers drove anyway and put their careers and even prison time on their hands if they got in an accident and hurt/killed someone. The company would can you at the very least for going over hours.

And exceed sixth (60) hours

Where’s the broom?
Since you quoted me I’m responding, although I’m not sure your response was completely directed at me.
Here break time is recorded by the company as paid off duty in our ELD logs. I’m not in Cali and I don’t control what the company considers off duty and on duty time. When I log a break I am free to do with that time as I want. The break being considered off duty time is programmed through the IVIS. From what you’ve posted you’ve been retired for some time. How this time is recorded has nothing to do with my preferences nor do I care as long as long as no laws are being broken by me.
How do I know?
If I pull up a log in the IVIS the log shows break time as off duty. I’m just stating how it appears in my RODS (DOT Log>Daily Grid) which is produced electronically on the IVIS a company issued device used by me to comply with DOT rules and regulations. The company may have this programmed differently in different parts of the country but I doubt it for feeder drivers.
I agree that any and all on duty time would count towards the 60 or 70 hour rule.
I’m glad you’re not me.
Thanks,
The kid (I appreciate the compliment)

I’m not sure why people have ever cared. You aren’t going to get fired for having a BC account XD

Depends on what you've said.
It's now a hate-crime against fellow employees to post something that some tranny-lesbo in HR might not like.

I have told my FT supe to go throw himself off a bridge countless times I’m sure nobody is getting fired for something they said on BC

Same here. That's a whole lot less offensive to HR than other things.
We had flyers passed out specifically stating that discriminatory or hateful social media posts could be cause for discipline for hourlies, if it were taken to be directed at another UPSer.

Actually, this is not entirely true----there was a member named STUG who used to post pictures on company time that did not paint the company in the best light. The final straw was when he posted a picture of his on car doing something unsafe while on a safety ride with him so, yes, stuff posted here, or on any other social media site, can get you fired.

UPS has teams of people who spend all day scouring social media for posts that discredit the brand.
