This episode of The Lions' Den focuses on six-day route counts. Corey starts by discussing the importance of documenting any street-waiting time on the form 1838-C and emphasizes that management is likely to try and manipulate street time. He provides a detailed explanation of various aspects of the M-41 and M-39 handbooks related to package delivery, focusing on the correct procedures to ensure accurate time recording. He stresses the significance of using the 3996 when requesting additional time and highlights the importance of being familiar with the relevant regulations. Corey stresses how to prepare and document the 3996 for the day of a grievance. Corey reads from a decision from arbitration of what the law is and tells the letter carriers the 3996 is what you do for your hours. He says the carriers have to remember who is going to provide an audit trail for management of their DOIS system and what must be entered. The episode emphasizes again that management can not dictate what you do; you have the right to be a part of the process. The episode concludes with a reminder about the ongoing importance of accurate record-keeping in the context of six-day counts and that they should be documenting.
