Yes. Double time. $$$ !
Then why even add this day? They should have gave us another sick or personal day….
How can they do that? It is a paid holiday. If you don't show up, you still get 8 hours .
They can’t force on a holiday. If I were you I would call the hall….
We did call the hall, our ba said the only holiday they cant force is Christmas.
But if you work a Contract holiday we get double time for every hour worked +8 hours holiday pay.
If they force us and we call in sick we'd get 8 holiday and 8 sick.
The sheet is coming down Thursday and the force list will be put up Friday

A Holiday is a Holiday . They can’t pick and choose what one is more important. That would be discrimination & open them up to legal action.
IMHO, just because they mutually agreed to not force for Christmas seems to mean that they can force on any of the other holidays. That's seems to be the "normal" scenario and the non-force on Christmas is just an agreed-to special situation.
Well it all could have been avoided with an extra personal day like they did with Good Friday….
That’s what I was saying without saying it….
Or to Al Sharpton.
What your BA is quoting is for road drivers not local city or dock work. You need to go over his head because they are right. A holiday is a holiday for the city side.

. Most places you deliver to are open on MLK so the company should be pro actively trying to cancel deliveries to your paying customers. I know Denver said they were going to try to operate regular shifts with volunteers or something. Don't think that will work. This is the 1st year it is a Holiday for you guys so I don't think they had their ducks in a row. Hopefully it won't be as big of a :

They worked me last Memorial Day, someone moved my payed holiday up to Sunday to not trigger double time. My holiday was on Sunday in the system while all the rest of the barn was on Monday in the system. I fought it and got my pay but now they won’t work me on the holidays and I get screwed with a split long weekend, but I got to honor the contract.
