The thing that pisses me off is the buses cannot leave the yard so why all of a sudden am I essential? How do 4 mechanics in a 2 day shop only work 1 per bus. Its just to screw us because no one else is told to come in and they are all being paid to stay home. And a note on the bottom of the message says if we dont come in unlike others we will have to use our saved days.
I have to wonder how much of this decision is fodder from the bean counting budget conscious administration who get there funds from the gov by hours worked or number of employed. A lot of politics in public works.
