Here everyone is M-friend. They ‘force’ from bottom up but still allow for occasional Saturday off requests. We have 5-6 working Saturdays, occasionally 7.
Cover drivers are “Full time” and all but 3 drive daily except slow/low vacation times like Jan-Feb and September-October.
They abuse covers by forcing from bottom up to work local sort or preload because of staffing issues and occasionaly try to force them to work both which DQs them from shuttling/driving for day if needed.

No just drive six days a week. Not actually covering someone's shift at all. Won't hire any new people for Saturday delivery.
Fake numbers
But when/if a shipper wants to offer Sunday delivery to their customers, their choice of delivery company becomes easier if UPS does not offer the option .i dont ever see the need for Sunday ground. right now the only deliveries on Sunday is if you order something from amazon prime on Friday and your guaranteed two day delivery. maybe Sunday air at some point.
