I'm not sure what building your out of but a very high percentage of the feeders drivers at whites creek were originally from the massman building before whites creek was built. They were forced to go to w/c. Then they were bypassed for full-time jobs by new hires at massman.
There are people in feeders at w/c that were hired at massman in the late eighties ahead of people hired years earlier originally at massman and forced to w/c. I guess that is why they go ape
. A lot of the CPU work is picked up close to massman and processed at both w/c and massman. I know it's a messed up situation but it has cost some people at w/c a lot of money and there are still some bitter feelings..
Sounds like you are out of Whites Creek. Yes, that crappy situation has been discussed here before as being the reason why things are so friend*ed up in 480 but the other is that one particular person was tired of being bumped back into the hub by those people. That seems to be the story that the regulars that attend the local meetings, as well as a few on here, are sticking with. Either way it clearly wasnt handled right. All they (the local) had to do was make it fair for everyone instead of only for one building. I mean is it right to continuously unfairly punish the surrounding buildings for decades for something that they didn't even have a part of? Of course it isn't.
We just want our work. Why is that too much to ask? Whats happening to the rest of us now isn't even the same as what happened back then. That was the result of a new building being opened and the local not handling things in a smart way to fairly bring people into package and feeders. We are just being told to stay out of Whites Creeks area, which is fine of course, but have to watch Whites Creek take our work. So, now we are the ones loosing money. But I didn't even want to get into that again. What I want to know is how others handle these things. I mean why have a feeder department if we can't even use it? LOL
You mentioned Massman.....I was happy to hear that they were able to get 5 CPU runs of their own moved over from The Creek and that most or all of the work was not followed. That work should have been theirs to begin with because its in their area. I heard that the work should not and would not be combined with CPU work out of Whites Creek though. Also that one building was not supposed to do CPU work in another's area. And that was all straight from the Whites Creek's BA. YET....here were are
STILL having this same ole discussion. LOL!
What I was shocked to see was the reactions from
some from The Creek when those 5 runs were mentioned at a general membership meeting right after it happened. I never would have thought I'd see someone so pissed that others were actually able to get what they deserve and whats rightfully theirs.
if the reverse happened. Actually.....they have had that happen and it was squashed very quickly.
