You're telling me that your center doesn't work every driver every Saturday in December? That's been the case for years in most areas. It's a forced 6 day schedule for at least the 3 weeks before Christmas.not me

Not here , if a RPCD doesn’t have a full 8 hrs available he cannot be forced into work over 60 hrs , Clear as day in the contract..
I haven’t worked a Saturday during peak in years..run out of hours before sat it’s simple

Wouldn't that mean pre-load whose scheduled to work T-S ( M-S for peak) would get Tuesday off?

Ever since PVDs launched, we get no where near 60 in 5 days. These last few years, peak isn't that many hours over the rest of the year because the PVDs scoop up all the extra stops.Not here , if a RPCD doesn’t have a full 8 hrs available he cannot be forced into work over 60 hrs , Clear as day in the contract..

In all my years of driving, I never seen a volunteer list or been ask to run critical air on a holiday. Does it only go to the most senior driver(s) in the building or to random bottom of the list air driver?
Geez that has to suck!
I/we can have 20 hours available on Saturday and we still can't be forced in in our area.
Dude, if you are not starving for the money and your attendance is decent just call in. There's always another day to jockey around the neighborhood delivering boxes.....enjoy yourself.

We working Christmas Eve? If so, who is working, who is not or doesn't have to work? Would a deal for triple time be worked out if the company is desperate?
If the company is forcing Saturday, it's better that the union tells everyone sooner than later, no?

Thats assuming the company would even know, until probably the week before.
Same thing will happen, as it has happened before. Ask for volunteers and then force from the bottom up.
If the company wants to pay triple time.... that's up to them. It's certainly not contractual.

Difference? M-friend drivers and Tues-Sat. Other possible issues like forcing drivers in and changing to the 70 hour rule so they have hours available.
