All of our supervisors had to work 6 days a week during Peak with the promise of an extra weeks vacation next year..i worked for ups SCS and they didn’t force people to work like they do on the union side of the businesses. I wonder why????
The company does not owe you anything extra, buddy. #1stworldproblems

Is the company LEGALLY responsible to abide by a contractual agreement between two parties?

The company loves to use gray areas within our agreement. Those cases don’t always get resolved quickly. But similar the recent pay, actual code 5 decision little by little the companies, dishonest position in regards to the agreement erodes.
Beer for you on the last sentence......I'm right with you!!
Unfortunately everybody looks at the monetary portion of the contract and not the actual language
Not realizing the actual language can make them more money
Hopefully we have a good strong Rock solid agreement with slam dunk language
Any seasonal works every automatically guaranteed the contractual guarantees regardless of how many hours they actually work

I agree with some of your posts, but grown men whining about a sandwich isn’t a good look. I’d want to go home anyway.

Right, it’s a mindset of break the contract first for our own purposes and make someone else try to keep us accountable if they can. It’s why their virtue signaling - integrity speeches fall on deaf ears. Words and actions don’t line up and that my friend is hypocrisy!
See that's where the disconnect happens
The company continuously fills to realize that if you treat people like a human being they might actually get a little more positive production
Some people it doesn't matter what you do you can give them extra everything in there I can do anything extra for you
But I've been doing this job for more than a minute and personally the handful of supervisors and treating like a human being I was willing to give a little extra effort
I'm just trying to put a little more time in and make my pension a little bit better but this is different for me than 1997
I don't have little kids to worry about because you're all grown up and out of the house
I do not have a mortgage or another bills
I also do not have a stay-at-home wife she has a part-time job and is bringing some income into the household.
I just want a good contract for the future generation just like the generation is before me did for me and you

Yep, try to leave the place better than you found it.
That's my goal
Hopefully our new leadership does better than our prior leadership

And conversely, I have been on the giving end. Employees acting entitled and non appreciative of the efforts is a turnoff.

That’s life there’s always a few, most Stewards bust their tail, most of them for nothing extra. And get the same attitude from some you’re talking about. It is what it is.

You won't strike but even if you do just a few weeks outdoors half assing some air deliveries and then I get a medallion for it or something, IDGAF driving is a vacation

See this is where we have a chance to make a difference
You're not going to change the hardcore employees
But since the pandemic we have a lot more employees and we used to you need to reach out to those guys and gals
This company will fail by all the hatred
And it's not just all disgruntled Union employees
You don't have to shave you can look like ZZ top you can have dreadlocks that's all fun and good, well not really..
But the company needs to change the toxic environment that every employee of this place has to deal with on daily basis

It was funny watching the non operators deliver packages. All out of shape, sweating like pigs and not getting anything done.
Says the man at work from home while everyone else was out killing himself during the pandemic.
