Just curious when the rest of the system received there notices about their safety bonuses?
Also were you told one amount then another a few days later?
Out here in Denver Co we received our notices Wednesday 12-5-18, stating you will receive X amount for your SB. So today, 12-7-18 we received a new revised letter stating that due to an error of double counting a $25 premium may have been communicated to you in our November correspondence.
Basically they overpaid us by $25. I find this interesting in the fact we received the first letter about any safety bonus wednesday, then this new one friday. There was NO letter given to any of us in November! And every employee eligble for the SB here in denver received the same letter in the same time frame!
For us senior drivers out here this was kind of a slap in the face.
Last year Copsy decided to raise the wages of new hires to full scale with the senior people to bring in more drivers. It did that but not good drivers, kind of the bottom of the barrel types. Lots of lazy drivers or unskilled types, truck school flunkeys and the like. This has created a real problem out here in Denver.
Now our managment and dispatchers are holding these new guys hands, they cannot do any wrong. These guys have caused lots of problems with customers i.e. backing skills, communication and ect.
They'll pull up in front of a customers, sit for 15 minuets then call in an exception for either closed or cannot locate and it's ok, yet a senior driver calls in a legit closed buisness or cannot locate and all heck breaks loose, dispatch or CS is calling the customer to verify there closed or there asking the customers to come find you!
It has really gotten ridiculous out here with the way they cater to the new people, they mess up daily yet are given a big hug and an atta boy when they get back in at night!
The whole situation with the new hires and wages has really gotten out of hand.
Then throw Christmas in the equation, new hires won the daily $200 and two got the $1000, not to mention all the other give aways were new hires with only 2 senior people receiving anything.
And now the slap in the face with the safety bonuses! Yes I know its only $25 but the way it was handled out here in Denver was pure pathetic!
Is it just here in Denver???
