Strike Authorization Today?

[MyTripisCut]

Will need significantly stronger overtime protections as well.

More money less hours?

Probably more money, very similar hours?

 

[Over70irregs]

They have to push to the end to make it look like they are still working. It’s probably all sewed up nationally during last golf union/ups outing.

Relax there won’t be a strike. As minimum there will be a hand agreement and we keep working

So the deal will be done?

Need to end OT unless you sign up for it. An honest days work is 8hrs like everyone else. Not 9.5

 

[Wontmake9.5]

So the deal will be done?

I think so yes. Like I said at least a hand shake agreement and we continue working.

Hell...if I wanted that I would be in Atlanta ...

That will only be the beginning....

No forced 6th punch. Period. Or else it’s an automatic no for me.

Forced 6th is hyperbole. No local will allow someone to ultimately loose their job for not working 6 days. Sure you'll get harassment and some bs letter of intent that'll be it.

Idk. They suspended a guy in our center last Christmas. Depends on your local union rep

Suspended around Xmas? That's a gift not punishment.

Oh trust me I know, I had 3 “working termination” letters at one point last year as well as many other drivers in my building. But the fact that they can even harass and intimidate people into coming in isn’t acceptable. Waiting until Thursday afternoon or Friday morning to tell you that you are working Saturday… eat my ass UPS.

The junior drivers call in the morning of the 6th punch just so they can't say no call no show and the BA handles them saying they didn't report to work on a day they aren't scheduled. I have never seen or heard of someone getting discipline for it.

They gave him an intent to suspend and he didn't fight it. lol

There will be no strike. The two sides haven't met on the golf course yet to close the back room deal.

You’re right, same over here. But it shouldn’t even be an issue that we have to call in and get harassed and then retaliated against.
There are people that actually get intimidated to come in, going on 5 years now. It is not okay and should not be accepted as normal practice. Total horse S^^^

The lyrics of "Dogs days are Over" by "Florence and the Machine" rings true over this possible strike..also it is a Cool Song..
