We got about 3 feet of bundled flats today to go along with the token half tub of raw flats.Welp, it's all over now.... open the floodgates for the flats and whatever else they've been holding back.... will they start tomorrow, or wait for next week????
i heard it wasn’t atrocious at my office flats wise, parcels are still booming. Clerk texted me and said 8k parcels scanned in. Projection is 6k amazon tomorrow
.
My only motivation was to get back before dark.... now, if were light later, I might have gotten back later $$$$$....
I got more OT this year than I have in any previous year.... thanks to RRECS eval cut.....
I want less wear and tear on my body for my last 4 years . I moved my k day from Saturday to Monday also because of that effective next week . Keeping tracks most of my important numbers . Seems like my 44k route is enroute to become 45/46k in next mms . If happens I will be content — not really looking for OT worksI got more OT this year than I have in any previous year.... thanks to RRECS eval cut.....
This is the higher of the two . If you would have worked over 43 hrs in your regular 5 days , then they would have lump it together with your actual hrs from the k day . I have seen them doing that . And would have paid you anything over 43 as overtime mine . No separate money for your k day . As you have worked 46.87 hours in 6 days ( that’s what actual hours mean ) you don’t want them to pay you ot money for 3.87 hrs only . Instead you got your 8.6 hrs of k day at ot rate
Welp, it's all over now.... open the floodgates for the flats and whatever else they've been holding back.... will they start tomorrow, or wait for next week????
I have always thought about self-preservation in this job.... if you don't do it, nobody else will..... they'll use and abuse you, and grind you in to dust.... My theory is, if it's a Monday, day after holidays, etc., etc.... it's a good day to be off....
We had an every door mailing management said everything has to go 25% of the carriers left them on the floor,had a sub quit last week told to come in 2 hours early the next day or written up he laughed and was never seen again.
See, now I thought you said you were in some tall cotton there.... LOL.... I guess no place is all roses....
I'll repeat....

Wow ! Were you working 16/17 hrs a day everyday for 3 weeks straight !!!!! More power to you . But be careful . That’s not healthy or safe
12-14 a day, 6 a week, plus 5-7 on Sundays. 0 days off since Thanksgiving. (I'm aware Sundays were optional. But eh, one time of year I feel I'm actually compensated properly for my labor. Provides a kick. Plus I spent 10 years as a sub. I'm... Well seasoned. Weathered, some may say.)
Monday Holiday, Wednesday Relief Day and I have 3 of the next 4 Tuesdays off for Annual leave. That makes for 3, Four day weekends within a months time.I'll repeat....
Pay back time.
Not sure of your age, but as you get older, that sort of schedule may catch up with you..... but, I do hear you on getting the appropriate wage.... In my neck of the woods, many got their salaries and evals cut under RRECS.... so now under the OT period, they act like we should haul @$$ to save them $$$$ money.... LOL.... no way, hail no.... milk all the $50-something $$$$$ clams an hour you can get.... wth.... it's what they would do....
It's a $#!+
It's so sad what our job has evolved into.
show.... nobody really seems to dispute that anymore....
