[QUOTE="NinjaSox, post: 6028164, member: 109115"] I’m currently a cover driver, Tuesday-Sat, and I am aware that they can force me to work 6 days a week in the Southern Supplement. That isn’t an issue, I don’t mind working 6 days a week most of the time. Last contract, I wasn’t able to come in on a certain forced Monday, and I told my supervisor I’ll just use an option day. He responded telling me per the contract he is not allowed to use an option day on my scheduled off day. This go around, I went out of town over the weekend. I told them to use option days Tuesday and Wednesday (I have 3 left), and that I wouldn’t be able to make it on Monday. They ended up putting an option day in for Monday too. I’ve looked in the contract but can’t seem to find anything regarding forced 6th punch rules for option days. Is there any truth to what the previous supervisor told me about not being able to use an option day for a forced 6th punch? Any input is appreciated!! ***Either way is fine with me, if they can in fact use an option day and I need off before the year’s up I can take a write up.
