[QUOTE="gandydancer, post: 178371, member: 9310"] What's been done in your centrer contradicts the plain language of the contract, but whether the union will back you up I can't guarantee. Again, let me quote 22.3: "No part-time employee shall be [a]laid off or[b]suffer the loss of a job as a result of creating a full-time job."("[a}" & "[b]" added). The point is that [b] must have a different meaning than [a], else why say "or"? If you lose your clerk job you've "suffer[ed] the loss of a job" even if you stay employed by UPS. What happened with the two clerks who vacated is how a 22.3 is supposed to be created: their jobs can appear on the report to hall along with a pair of hub vacancies to make two new numbered combo jobs, with no existing parttimer losing his job. I'm still trying to figure out what's happening in my center. The union grieved the three new 22.3's on the grounds of not being properly notified which jobs had been combined and it deadlocked at the first panel level. One 22.3 is working as bid, bumping a pt with ~25 yr seniority, one pt (~30 yr seniority) gave up his early start to start his summer hs coaching gig, one pt (~25?) kept his early start throughout and is now again starting at the remote, one 22.3 isn't working the job he bid on and is getting the early start...but as an unloader! I'm not sure about the third 22.3... but those three are, I think, being cut out after 8 hr (say 1:30am), wheras I've always worked to 3am plus... A couple times they've tried to cut me out on the grounds that I'm making ot and the new hires aren't (not in the contract!), and I've grieved on the grounds that once the newbies have made their guarantee (they've never tried cutting me out early enough for that not to be true) they need to cut workers out of an area in seniority order -- only lasted a week each time, and I won back pay a prepanel once and the other grievance disappeared without a trace... and then there's the 22.3 who has to take a two hour lunch because he signed the bid that way, despite the contract saying the lunch must be no more than an hour. And then there's the way jobs that were created easy/hard have somehow become easy/easy. And the couple guys who went 22.3 in 2000 and got two years back pay, but have never worked two shifts. And... there's more. It's a mess. But, even if you don't go to the meeting, you should at least get an explanation from your BA of why you might lose your clerk job when the contract says that can't happen![/b][/b][/b] [/QUOTE]
