I don't believe you have a 30 day period to qualify as a Saturday Air Driver.

Very believable. Also very wrong. UPS try's to save money by jamming the preload and then try's to fix their mistakes by sups working. Before the PAL system came in misloads were nearly non existent. Now it is a FT job.
They want the mis-loads delivered to make service they aren't worried about orion compliance the key word is to make service and avoid a service failure this is going to prevent someone for filing.
He says he is a utility driver / Sat Air driver that could be considered a PT cover driver. The OP would need to read his supplement and see what it says...
Yes I am the lowest one on the totem pole.
There are a dozen utility drivers above me with more seniority. None of them know about this supe stealing time.

Does anyone read their contract? I was screwed over like that once and went to the center manager. We got into a heated argument and he threw the contract book at me and said file a grievance if you can read. After that I started to read the contract and I found out I was getting screwed left and right. Knowledge is power and knowing the contract will only help you. Since that time in the office I have filed at least 20 grievances and not lost one thanks to that dick center manager.
Yes I am well aware.
That's why I was never going to greive this. it would not benefit me.
But if what you guys say is true, and I can get restitution for it, then I will grieve this.

All of our cover drivers are FT package car drivers who do not have a route. Excuse my misunderstanding as he stated he was going to be a Saturday driver.
All are cover are the same FT no permanent route guaranteed 8 hrs a day like any other driver.
I didn't say don't file I just said make sure your duck are all in a row...
This is what I'm dealing with. They are running missloads and who-knows what else....

The package car drivers certainly know the sups are running misloads. You or the Union should be talking to them and get this stopped.
I agree!
I'll talk with my steward on Monday and go from their.
Thank you for all the info.

Have your ba file for the highest seniority utility driver., that didn't drive. That way company pays and they will stop stealing our work!

ANY hourly can file for a supervisor working. And the amount of people who can file is not limited. If there are available hourly employees and a supervisor is performing hourly duties, grievances can be filed.
So, if you know for sure (not heresy) that a supervisor doing hourly work and say 6 cover drivers are not, or doing a job at a lesser rate because driving was not offered to them, then ANYONE can file. All 6 of those no working employees as well as any working employee. And you should all get paid. It's not a matter of seniority on payouts. 50 working drivers and 6 non working drivers can file and all should get paid.
THE ONLY TIME A SUPERVISOR SHOULD BE WORKING IS WHEN ALL AVAILABLE EMPLOYEES ARE EXHAUSTED.

OH snap!
It's not heresy. I work for centers and my supervisors talk about it openly. A few of them are cool and share the secrets... They admit it's been going on for a very long time.
