[QUOTE="union4life, post: 1161772, member: 35190"] Hello. Yes, you will have to wait until it is your turn. If that takes 7, 10 or 15 years, you will wait. Seniority is what you have working for you. Sign all the bid lists and keep an eye on the new hires. Find out where the company is on the "off the street" ratio and make sure they stick to the contract. The company can't simply not allow you to qualify. If you have the seniority, and someone less senior than you is allowed to qualify before you, you will need to file a grievance and make sure that you don't get passed up You will eventually go full-time but can you wait? I tell the part-timers in my area the simple truth. If you see yourself making the type of money we make, with the benefits we have, then quit. If not, wait. I waited for 7 years bouncing around doing everything there was to do. Just like you, I was very frustrated. I finally got my full-time seniority and the rest is history. I am glad I waited. I wish you the best. [/QUOTE]
