TForce | Back Pay?

If you owed them a nickel or a dime, they would friggin' take it in a heartbeat. Go one minute too long without taking your break, write them up!!!! Call off, write them up!!!! But, they can hold your money, not pay you for legitimate time because, and I quote, "we stopped paying you the off route miles, it's a different day". Coerce and intimidate to violate regulations and make a Federal case out of it!!!!! What they expect from us, and what they tolerate out of management is becoming an issue we can no longer ignore... Talk to almost anyone and they can tell you almost to the day when they plan to get out of this business, or more directly UPGF. Who do they expect will do this kind of work when we are all gone????????? How many times have you seen a "supervisor" talking on their cell phone, texting, watching sports on the computer, or won't get out of the chair if their b@lls were on fire. Ask them to get something fixed, we need something, check this, ahhhh "I don't have time for that". I feel for those who have 20, 30 years to go.....

I understand your frustration, but why reply to a post with a 500 word rant that doesnt even come close to the question asked?

I agree with all you said buddy. It just didnt fit this discussion. Ups steps over dollars to pick up a penny they think their employees are wasting or cheating them out of. A few weeks ago I drove an empty set 160 miles then was forced on dock and got red circle for 3 hours and then drove the empty set back home. Basically 320 miles 90 minutes on clock on regular pay then 3 hours of red circle.
Basically 350 bucks to have someone work the dock for 3 hours. Plus fuel cost added to that. Only thing they was mad about was my field time was 15 minutes because I forgot to switch back after when I fueled and turned in paperwork and truck..
 
I talked to my business agent Last week he said it's going to arbitration because ups said we voted down the contract
What a bunch of B S, ought to make them divvey up the interest they got on OUR money..... If they spent half the time workin' with us instead of ways to shaft us.......
... Better stop I feel another rant coming on.......

Senior V P of Automotive says they figure $1.80 a mile to operate. Lets see, 320 times $1.80, carry the one.... $576 plus your $110, roughly $700.00. We had an extra board last week do 540 mi with the same empty set.. $972 just in operating costs... Have to stop, I'm starting to foam at the mouth......
