[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 2651776, member: 8481"] No. Section 7 refers to the 8 hour guarantee if put to work, but UPS uses Section 1, Acts of God, to override "all" guarantees, including the 8 hour guarantee if put to work. Do you remember the thread about the Central and working Holidays? [I]A regular seniority employee shall not be required to work on the following eight (8) named holidays.........[/I] [I]Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, regular seniority employees required to work on any of the above named holidays......[/I] That means a driver only has to call in a handful of days a year. No big deal. We are not compensated any more for driving during a blizzard for those handful of days a year. If you enjoy it, then why are you complaining about it. It sometimes goes beyond just not hearing the end of it. It sometimes goes to weeks of suspension or even discharge, or could go that far, so why take the risk? Like I said, I do every blizzard, but maybe I'm stupid. There have been many a days that I came in, and 2 hours later, I am asking myself what the hell am I doing out here? [/QUOTE]
