Saturday air is packages being delivered on Saturday so that's how I interpret it. Such BS!

That's the big question.

I wouldn't vote yes for a retro check either. It's not like those hours are going anywhere and it could get bigger if the renegotiated contract has better wages.

I don’t work at UPS anymore.
Come to think of it, why just Monday?
Let’s say 22.4s in my building are all hired as Wed-Sun. UPS shoves volume through on weekends, lays off a ton of RPCDs Mon, and a few less on Tues. The ones that do work will be worked to the max, but that’s okay because they can have their 9.5 violated 2 days a week.
Wed - Fri we run fat; RCPDs are not only kept under 9.5, they’re starved of any overtime at all. Higher seniority RPCDs will still get hours, lower seniority guys can only count on 24 a week. Many volunteer for weekend work because of this, and there you have it we lost big time on this contract.
Really, really hoping for our supplement to come through on this.

That needs to be universal master contract language for all

He won’t address the “as long as work is available” language which I why I’m convinced the worst-case scenario is the future

The 'oh damn, we ran all our volume over the weekend, sorry about that, don't bother clocking in' clause.

Yes that means they will flood Saturday and Sunday with volume. Low seniority guys will be laid off Monday and Tuesday. With all the guarantees of 8 hrs a day, where do they laid of RPCDs get their hours? If they are doing combo work, where do they get their hours?

You don't have to say "agree" silly. There's little charms at the bottom of posts for you to rate people, and one of them is agree

I would rather go on strike and lose volume then volume gets diverted and drivers get laid off two days a week so "combo drivers" get to work for less. IBT and UPS trying to play us for a fool. I'm voting no. I've been a full time driver in 4 different buildings in 2 different states (I transferred). I'm telling all my buddies in all 4 buildings to vote no. And the whole "as long as work is available" is exactly why.
