[QUOTE="KatieH, post: 5813054, member: 90703"] Hello all! I hope you guys can help me answer a question. So I’ve been a cover driver for 4 years, and just this year after peak, been sent back to preload due to volume. It sucked but I accepted it. Anyway, there are a group of 20 of us that got sent back, I’m number 3 on senority. When asked when I can finally be a full time driver, their response was, “We’d really love to keep you, but unfortunately we just don’t have the volume. Our uppers won’t let us because we are full of drivers right now and business is too low “. So fast forward to today; and I see two brand new drivers. One is a transfer from another city, the other is loader that has been at ups but decided to become a driver. So my question is, why are we taking transfers before promoting us covers; aren’t we supposed to be promoted first because we have building senority? Also why are they putting new drivers in school if volume is so low? Especially since we are supposedly full of drivers, and they already have drivers (us) they can use. Don’t we have building seniority over transfers? And for the one loader, don’t we have seniority over him because we’ve been driving? We are in CA. Also to note: the two drivers ahead of me are really bad, and I have a suspicion that’s what is holding me back. Thank you so much! [/QUOTE]
