[QUOTE="justaquestion, post: 585831, member: 23926"] *Update My name was on the bid sheet to switch to Twilight. The problem is that the bid sheet has mysteriously disappeared. I also know for a fact that a person with about 4 months less seniority than myself has been told by management that his transfer will go through very very soon. (this week most likely) I'm kinda angry about it because I've been wanting to change shifts to Twilight for six months now and this person can just complain to Human Resources about college classes conflicting with work and he gets switched before me, even though both our names were on the bid sheet before it went missing. Is that what it takes at UPS? Not seniority. Just Brown-nosing. I'd also like to know if this is a violation of the contract. It seems to be and I would like to know if I should file on it. I've never filed a grievance but in this case I'm mad enough to. I'm also a student just like the guy who most likely will be skipping me and would like to switch to Twilight for similar reasons. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Also if a grievance is advised should I wait until the other person is transferred before filing? I don't want to negatively impact my fellow hourly so I was thinking I should file afterward, so maybe he can switch shifts and I could follow. [/QUOTE]
