[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1190017, member: 198"] i did. :) An extended center is a small hub that is considered an extension of an actual hub. They are usually located in suburban or rural areas outside of cities or towns that have large hubs. They are fed packages from the hubs and most of the packages that are picked up by the drivers in the extended centers are fed into the hubs they are extended from. The best way to understand it is to look at a map of the U.S.. If you assume that each major city has a hub then imagine having a bunch of extended centers that fill in the vast areas between the hubs. For that is their purpose. In my district an extended center has it's own separate seniority list and hourly employees can't bid into jobs in the hubs and vice versa. I've heard that in other areas that can be done though. It is possible to transfer from one to the other but you go to the bottom of the seniority list. That means people with less company seniority have more building seniority than those that transferred there. [/QUOTE]
