Hourly to management seniority

Your seniority only applies to picking vacations. It’s based off your date of hire. You’ll be able to pick vacations over any person at your level. So if you’re a pt supervisor you get to pick vacations ahead of other pt supervisors that started working at ups after you.

I’m not saying that other facilities don’t play games and “bend the rules.” Just that this is the policy.
I guess there isn’t much else in management.

Does anyone know how seniority works if you go from hourly to management? If I’ve been on preload for 10 years and then decide to go into management, do I go in on the bottom of the seniority list because I’ve never been in management? Do I get to keep my seniority above another supervisor who’s only been there 2 years? I’m sorry if this isn’t the right forum to ask. I’m having difficulty finding one related to management. Thanks in advance!
Management = work or get fired.

No, I’ll be going from preload to midday oms. Life with small children is hard working the wee hours of the morning.

Well the hours will probably be better for you. But remember OMS has no guaranteed raises. No pension. Health insurance plan is not as good. Consider everything before making the jump.

Also a lot of stress juggling customer complaints, covering pick ups and drivers that can't get all of their businesses delivered before 5.

For center to district level management. Your senority date is determined by when you started with the company...inside senority date for inside management hires. Its important cause # of vacation weeks on the scale they use.

The reality is management folks aren’t fired for poor performance. This company hates training new people when there’s a warm body available.

They get fired for dishonesty. So long as you honestly suck ups has a job for you.

Poor supervision is a direct result of poor management. Apple does not fall far from the tree.

Your post sounds like it reads poor driving is a direct result of being a poor driver... lol maybe I just missed the mark.

I’m only pointing out that management gets fired for the same reasons that hourlies are. If you’re dishonest, if you’re a liar, if you falsify records then they’ll fire you. If you suck then they’ll just move you to a job that you suck at but don’t break things (mostly).

the notion of “they can fire you for anything” isn’t false but it doesn’t happen the way that it’s said by union employees.
