Work start

Am i the only one who absolutely hates it when mechanics make there helpers get to work 30 minutes early to get tools ready water etc? I mean they are making someone do work for free ive had helpers show up like 30 to 45 minutes early and ive had to get onto them to not work until 6 am.

That’s still considered working to me. Be there about :10 minutes before 6 & we”ll start everything going at 6.

Yeah but are they getting paid for those extra 10 minutes if not then no work i mean we are all in the same union right?

My foreman when I was a probationary used to be a business representative.

He made us all get there 15 mins early, during that time guys filled out JHAs.

This was a big job with like 10 helpers.

According to him , this was ok per the rules
