TCD being forced to work more than Full Timers. Any recourse?

[burrheadd]

Sorry but that's the job. If she doesn't want those hours tell her to DQ herself and go back to just preload.

Are you crazy
This dude is livin like a fat cat
Got mama out working 12 hours a day while he plays GTA
He’s not gonna rock the boat

Your a tcd, you dont have to drive everyday.

“ I’m not driving enough!”
“ I’m driving too much”
UPS OWNS YOU NOW , JUST ACCEPT IT AND BECOME ROBOT-LIKE

My girlfriend's husband has the same issue. In all seriousness, maybe try a different business agent or talk to one of the leaders of the local and explain the situation?

I'm so glad we don't have TCD here and what's this about DQ she is not qualifying?
My opinion on how to treat the company: Don't drive for them much unless progression wages are on the table, like a free trial period. There is plenty of inside work to do instead. It's like quitting but they still have to fund your pension. Win/win

Here Cover Driver's are PT. If you want to stop driving and just go back to working PT you can what we call DQ yourself. It just means you're quiting cover driver and have to wait the contractual time to do it again.

Where I’m at, a tcd can turn down driving twice a month. After that they go to the back of the seniority list until the beginning of the next month when it goes back to your normal seniority spot.

Southern? Here you're scheduled and show up or "DQ" and go back to working PT. Though they have to be scheduled the week before. They can't just call the day before.

 

[quad decade guy]

According to @quad decade guy you have to work when ever you have hours available.
That means no days off if you have hours available.

True here. Shrug.

 

[quad decade guy]

My advice for you is tell your wife to start taking breaks by the book and start laying down. Don’t clean bring back work ups will rather pay 9.5 grievances then not clean for the day.

This is dishonesty. Very bad advice.

Yeah, southern. At my center u get called daily. The higher seniority guys are even on standby for call ins and don’t have to go to preload.

If not scheduled here and they call you to work, you get top rate if you decide to work.

[Est.1998]

Work it take the money or quit
Or go full time

Or you can get a job let her stay home...

Does he not work for UPS too?

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Does he not work for UPS too?

Actually I'm not sure but doesn't sound like it

 

[Est.1998]

From reading his post, he either works/worked for UPS, or he listens really well when his ol lady walks through that door.
And i don't think it's the latter.
