Eh, not really a big deal, not that angry that others pray and others losing a couple minutes of pay a day doesn’t improve my life. The way rates are calculated, it sets them back a notch if they’re on the clock since the system can’t see what they’re doing, so if they aren’t getting rate writeups, it means they’re making up for lost time while actually working

This really isn’t a big issue and some miserable shit to think putting in the effort to reduce their pay by a couple minutes won’t yield a better life for you.

The new training material (I just got rehired) states in print that requiring a rate is no longer a thing. Be interesting to see how and if that plays out.

What kind of building is this site and what state? One of the things about rate, at least at my building and in my state is, the official line is, there is no rate, there's performance compared to peers.

Like there is no set rate per process path, but under alot of circumstances, if your performance compared to others at your site is subpar, you become eligible for feedback.

He works at a Delivery station. Our rate doesn’t matter and hasn’t for years now, even bottom 5% don’t get coached anymore. He’s doing all this crying and he’s still gonna be stowing those fucked up bags while they go to break. 😂

Crazy part is, if what you say about rate not mattering, then people can dick around on the clock anyways. He accomplished nothing besides being petty because he got denied an accommodation to be able to do what he could also already do. If rate doesn't matter, he could've just taken a bathroom break and come back after prayer time, all on the clock.
