[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 98112, member: 1912"] The 22.3 job was created out of the 97 strike settlement. I personally think it was rushed along as both parties were "encouraged" by the labor department to get this strike settled quickly. Much of the language was vague and worked out later. The intent is to create full time jobs by combining two part time jobs. As such you lose the rights to many of the skilled jobs you would have the rights to as a part timer only. At the same time it protects full time skilled jobs that pay a lot more. The combo job pays more then most part time jobs but less then full time inside jobs. A true compromise. By setting it up this way your union got combo jobs paying more then the part time jobs that were combined but at the same time the company can't supplant higher paid full time jobs with these lower paying ones. So you have a job that is really supposed to be a stepping stone to the higher paying jobs. You're part time and you bid into a combo job generally sooner then you would have otherwise gotten into a full time inside or driving job. Some drivers bid into the job and take the pay cut to get a job that is less demanding then the delivery job. But overall I have seen it work out to be a no frills full time job that gets you full time much sooner then you would have gotten otherwise. My opinion for what its worth. [/QUOTE]
