It sounds like they need to hire a few more drivers if that is the case... Sounds like your management team are a bunch of losers...
Is this normal at all centers?

You brought back 52 stops because you did not receive your 8 hour request??? This is not within your rights as a Union Member. There is a grievance procedure for this contractual violation.
I will agree you are not being treated properly, but what you did was wrong. I would absolutely file for harassment and retaliation but don't put yourself in a situation to lose you job. If you currently have a "bullseye" on your back, this is a pretty significant offence for them to ignore. Good luck to you. Hopefully they don't classify this as an unauthorized work stoppage or walkout.

In my local it is in our contractual rights to bring stops back in excess of eight hours. It is up to management to find a home for them if they want service made.

Could you post up the language you have for that? We need that here where I work. Thanks.

That's wild. Fair enough I stand corrected. I've never seen that language. I would be curious to read how its written.
Hi Canosup, thank you for your insight. I had called and sent a message over my diad to see if I was instructed to work past my 8 hr day or bring back unfinished stops. As a driver my biggest goal is customer satisfaction. Unfortunately our night supervisors made that call and this situation is definitely not unheard of in our center.

More and more of this story unravels. I admit I was quick to judgement. If you sent a message, they did not dispatch you with 8 hours then it's on them. I would definitely pursue retaliation. That message is absurd, if they try to ride with you again you may even have an over supervision avenue.
..... this next week should be interesting

The driver had an 8 hour request and management CHOSE to put more than 8 hours on the car... They are the ones who screwed the customer.... Pretty easy to see that Dave...stop swinging on the company's sack ...

Make sure to file retaliation greviences and I would also go as far was filing discrimination charges with the eeoc. They are singleing you out and treating you differently than your peers simply because you are on the 9-5 list.
Every time they ride file for harassment and retaliation and say it all relates to being in the 9-5 list. You need a paper trail because they will try to fire you. If you don't make a long trail you will look like a liar at panel. If you show a long history of harassment and retaliation which all started right after you got on the 9-5 list.... the case is slam dunk.
I made my management team look like complete a-holes with the trail or harassment and retaliation I brought to a local level hearing.
Get ready for a battle, after you get paid and they hear the harassment greviences, it will usually stop and they'll move on to somebody else
I'm also very sure a top attorney in your area would love to see that message you have a pic of. People have gotten settlements off of less. That pic could be worth 100k easy. It's unbelievable your management team would put something like that in writing.
